What Did the Mossad Do Now?

Israel’s Mossad is the star of some truly outlandish conspiracy theories, blamed for everything from pop culture stunts to natural disasters. From rigging Eurovision votes to stealing clouds, here’s a look at the most absurd accusations leveled at the Mossad.

In 2025, social media buzzed with claims that the Mossad manipulated Iceland’s Eurovision votes to boost Israel’s entry. Did they hack the app or bribe judges with matzot? The Mossad probably wrote the song, too! . No evidence supports this, but the rumor’s absurdity makes it a classic.

Earthquake engineers, Shark & birds Spies, Cloud Thieves

In 1992, a 5.8-magnitude earthquake hit Dahshur, Egypt, killing hundreds. While geologists cited tectonic shifts, some Egyptian media whispered that the Mossad triggered the quake to destabilize Cairo. How one orchestrates an earthquake remains a mystery, but the theory spread like wildfire.

In 2010, shark attacks off Egypt’s Sharm el-Sheikh coast sparked a wild claim. Local governor Abdel Fadil Shousha said, “We cannot rule out that the Mossad sent GPS-equipped sharks to harm our tourism.” Apparently, the Mossad now trains sharks. Marine biologists rolled their eyes.

In 2011, Saudi Arabia captured a vulture with a GPS tag from Tel Aviv University, sparking rumors it was a Mossad spy bird. A similar incident in Sudan in 2012 fueled claims of avian espionage, despite the tags being part of harmless migration studies.

In 2008, Iran accused the Mossad of “stealing clouds” to cause droughts, alleging weather manipulation to cripple agriculture. Similar claims across the Middle East blamed the Mossad for storms or heatwaves. Science begs to differ-weather control is pure fiction.

Iceland, You’re Not Alone

These conspiracies thrive on mistrust and the need to explain the unexplainable. The Mossad’s secretive aura makes it a perfect scapegoat for everything from Eurovision flops to natural oddities. So, Iceland, you’re not alone. The finest minds in the Middle East share your conspiracies!
