Payoneer CEO Yuval Tal
Credit cards used by the Mossad cell that allegedly assassinated a Palestinian militant in Dubai last January were issued by a New-York-based firm with ties to former Israeli military officials, reports The New York Post.
Dubai police investigating the killing say most of the prepaid credit cards used by the cell to purchase air tickets and book hotels were issued by an Iowa bank, Metabank.
Metabank, in turn, got the cards from privately held Payoneer, which was founded in 2005. It has a Park Avenue office on 1841 Broadway in Manhattan, as well as a research-and-development center in Tel Aviv, Israel.
Payoneer CEO Yuval Tal was featured as a special commentator on FOX News during the Israel-Lebanon War of 2006 because of his status as a former member of the Israeli special forces.
Payoneer has other Israeli ties.
Among its investors is Greylock Partners, a leading venture capital firm based in Silicon Valley. The company hired a former Israeli army intelligence officer, Moshe Mor, to head its expansion into Israel in 2003.
Other financial backers of Payoneer are Israeli-based Carmel Ventures and Crossbar Capital, whose co-founder previously headed an Israeli venture-capital firm.
Since publishing its information Monday, Tal has disappeared without a trace, reports The New York Post. Payoneer employees said Tal has not shown up for work, and his Brooklyn neighbors told the paper that he had left the country.

And the piont is??? Mossad took out a known terrorist, and good for them. The only reason why this is an issue here is because of 2 things.
1. Palestinians crying and having the liberal media push their propoganda and lies about Israel. They learnt well from the ANC and it’s Soviet instructors.
2. That now in the U.S we send our Navy Seals to jail for doing their job, and cannot stand seeing another country defend itself, especially Israel.OMG!!!!!!
So what !!!!, they did a good thing, cheer, and say good riddens to a scumbag. I applaud Mossad, I only wish they did more.
Oh, and I can see the comments now from the regular Israel/Jew haters on TRP, calling him a coward, a wimp for dissapearing and not making himself available to the liberal media for questioning all for the entertainment of the TV addicted Americans.
Leonard is your typical neo-conservative Jewish American.
