Why Putin’s security was better than Netanyahu’s

3
On May 9, high-ranking guests arrived in Moscow at the Victory Parade - Serbian President Alexander Vučić and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Numerous photos and video frames from Red Square attracted the attention of a wide audience to the work of security services of both the Russian president and his guests.





The most crucial moment for the bodyguards of the top officials of Russia, Israel and Serbia was the joint passage of Putin, Vučić and Netanyahu through Red Square. Is it worth saying that the secret services prepared for this passage in advance? At least, Israeli pros arrived in Moscow in advance, even before Prime Minister Netanyahu arrived.

The security of the head of the Israeli government is the responsibility of Shabak (or Shin-Bet), the General Security Service of Israel, which includes the Department of Safety and Security. “Shabak” is considered one of the best special services in the world, but in its history there was a very grandiose failure. On November 4, 1995, Shabak officials were unable to prevent the assassination of Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin. He was mortally wounded by a right-wing terrorist.

After this sad story, Shabak employees changed their work style a bit. It is very different from the methods used by the Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation. Even in the video frames of official events with the participation of the Israeli prime minister, it is clear that the Shabak employees are too clumsy and aggressive. Israeli security personnel tightly surround the prime minister, sometimes even lead him under his arms. It can be seen that they are preparing at any time to protect Netanyahu from a possible attack. The aggressiveness of Shabak employees sometimes goes sideways and causes scandals. For example, in France in January 2015, French Prime Minister Manuel Waltz shouted at them, which Israeli guards unceremoniously pushed. In Liberia, Shabak employees have fought with the bodyguards of President Togo.

However, the aggressive tactics of Shabak in Moscow did not work. Israeli security personnel, who are accustomed to having special services around the world reckon with them during visits by the Israeli prime minister, were forced to hand over the FSO initiative. This required the event format itself. In the free march of Putin, Vučić and Netanyahu, there was simply no room for the broad-shouldered Israeli fighters. They were nervous, but were forced to give up - in Russia, their "rules of the game", including in the field of security services.

The FSO has a fundamentally different tactic than Shabak. If Shabak is preparing to quickly respond to the attack and cover up the prime minister, then the FSO works in such a way that there is no possibility of an attack. “Shabak” are bodyguards, and FSO are operatives who are prepared to prevent any threats in advance. It is believed that Israeli intelligence has invaluable experience in dealing with high risk. Indeed, they are preparing Israeli security with high quality. This applies to fire training, and hand-to-hand combat, and to develop skills for responding to emergency situations. But with the preparation of our Federal security service "Shabak" still can not be compared. At least in Russia they did not kill the head of state in front of his bodyguards.

      Special forces are not all of the visual heroes; there are groups of visually small, but very hardy ones.
