"I am Jashen, sir, of the B'nei Elohim. I helped Judith make the Mengele extraction and also Wagner in '51. But  if Ha-Mossad is worried that we  are working them out of a  job we can certainly step back  for the next decade  while things go quiet.  It seems Josef  Mengele  fancied  himself  a  humble  country  doctor  in Argentina, and when  we fetched him we also fetched  some of his patient's charts. You can see  the documents sitting here on the table. One of the folders is for none other than Adolf Eichmann. It  seems the  very architect  of  the Shoah  didn't much  fancy seeing just  any old  doctor in Argentina.  You'll find  all the contact information you  need to scoop Eichmann  up right there, because  if there's  one  thing doctors  want  to be  absolutely certain of, it's getting paid."

That last bit sent  David Ben-Gurion into  a fit  of hysterical laughter. When he recovered he said, "This is excellent, Jashen. We'll take what  you've given  us and  try to  capture Eichmann ourselves. The day he arrives in the country, living or dead, is the day brevet Rav Seren Judith Margolies becomes a full major."

Shyla drew a shift on the evening of June 4, 1967 that went past midnight and even a  bit past  dawn on  the following  day. The Egyptian air force possessed seventeen airfields and she worked every one of them. Fortunately, the idiotic way  the Egyptians parked their bombers and fighters made her job much easier than she feared it would be.

The fools  literally  arranged  their ready  aircraft  in  neat squares with impressive military precision, if not  much in the way of  military  wisdom. When Shyla saw  the  situation  she realized she could accomplish her mission by simply working the perimeter of the squares rather than bagging every plane.

The charges she used were  about the  size of the  clay pigeons used in shooting practice, and they were even made of clay, with a magnet embedded in it. Every time Shyla said, "Pull!" one of them would  appear  at  her  feet. Sometimes the  guards  who patrolled the parked  planes would  hear her  say that,  but of course they would see nothing,  because it was Shyla's talent as one of the B'nei Elohim that she could be invisible to the human eye.

One time Ithuriel pointed out that when Shyla was invisible she must also be blind, but  this wasn't the  case, and she  had no idea how Bat-El arranged that it should be so, assuming Ithuriel was not just pulling her leg.
