The Blacklist

Chapter 443 Take a closer look at what counterattack means
Regarding Nawabi's experience, the agents of SLR and SER shared the same hatred and immediately took action according to Carrie's orders!

After learning what happened, Donald ordered all CTU members to follow Deputy Director Kerry's order at the highest execution level and begin to crack down on the forces of the Umbrella Corporation and Mossad throughout the United States!

Upon learning that a pregnant female colleague was assassinated by Mossad and the assassin organization, CTU was outraged and immediately began to act according to Carrie's orders. With the current strength of CTU, the full force of the operation was amazing. Dozens of people were arrested and hundreds of people were summoned that night!
The next morning, even Levi Shur, Mossad's liaison to the DSS (State Department's Diplomatic Security Service), was arrested and taken away directly in his office by agents from the CTU Headquarters' Operations Department. The matter became a complete disaster!
The Israeli ambassador urgently met with the Secretary of State, but the reply he received was that he had been invited to attend the National Security Council to discuss how to deal with the heinous behavior of allied intelligence agencies in assassinating federal agents in the country!
When the ambassador returned to the embassy helplessly, he saw that right at the gate, the car of the Deputy Cultural Counselor who had just left the embassy was hit and stopped by two large SUVs. Several capable men in black suits dragged him out of the car, handcuffed him, and took him away!

The Israeli guards in front of the embassy had already drawn their guns and were about to shoot, but were stopped by the ambassador because he knew: these black suits should be CTU agents from the United States, and the arrested deputy cultural counselor was also the chief of the Mossad intelligence station in Washington! The other party's action was obviously a revenge and demonstration. If the Israeli guards opened fire again and caused casualties among the CTU agents, the matter would be out of control! ——
Kerry, who was commanding from his office on the 12th floor of the tenement building, received a call from President Palmer: "Lee, does it need to go this far?"

"Yes," Kerry replied, "David, you can imagine, if we allow the Umbrella Company to kill Nawabi according to Mossad's orders this time, where is the prestige of CTU? Where is the government of the US government? Even if Israel is a staunch ally, their behavior this time has seriously crossed the line!"

Palmer thought about it and agreed: "I understand, go ahead and do it, I'll back you up!"

"Thanks, David." Kerry said, "By the way, you can also use this matter to give this disobedient ally a warning. They have been acting very badly in the Middle East recently. David, I think the alliance relationship is important, but more importantly, we need obedient allies!"

Carrie personally interrogated Levi Shull, who was sent to the tenement building, and slapped him twice as soon as they met. Although he didn't use all his strength, he still slapped him so hard that his mouth was cracked and bleeding. Then he said coldly: "Agent Levi, don't you think you are a bastard?

"Nawabi used to be your partner, and you even had a relationship. How cold-blooded are you to watch her being hunted down by the assassins of the Umbrella Company?"

Levi, who was still a little angry, immediately withered after hearing this. After a moment of silence, he said, "This is an order from the headquarters. Nawabi is now completely out of Mossad's control, and she knows too many confidential information. The headquarters does not want to take the risk of patching up the leaks after she leaks them, so they decided to take action in advance..."

"What the hell is this a bullshit reason!" Kerry said angrily, "Because she might leak your secrets in the future, you want to kill her! Then your president, prime minister, and ministers all know a lot of secrets, why don't you kill them after they step down?"

Levi smiled bitterly and said, "This is a decision made by the top management of the headquarters. An agent of my level cannot interfere at all..."

"Can't interfere?" Carrie laughed angrily, "If you knew about this situation, you could have given a warning in advance! But you didn't do it, you just watched it happen, and you also provided assistance to the Umbrella Company's killers to enter the country... Do you think everyone is a fool?" Hearing this, Levi was speechless. There was no way to explain this.

Kerry didn't force him to speak, and said directly: "I arrested you to formally inform you: during the period when the life and safety of Nawabi or any CTU agent are threatened, we will spare no effort to crack down on your presence in the United States. As for that damn Umbrella Company, it will be completely destroyed by us this time!
"Also, take back a warning: If Nawabi, Jiva, or other CTU agents are killed in this incident, I promise you and your superiors in my personal capacity that ten times more Mossad senior officials will be killed as companions! Don't say I didn't warn you."
-
At 1:30 in the afternoon, an SUV without any license plate threw Levi Shur, whose head was covered and face was covered in blood, in front of the door of the Israeli Embassy and then drove away!

Afterwards, as CTU continued its nationwide operations, the embassy's contacts with its home country were always high-frequency...

After some difficult communication and negotiation, the Deputy Counselor of Culture was released. Although he was not hurt, a formal document from CTU was sent afterwards: Because the Deputy Counselor's behavior was inappropriate, in order to ensure national security, he was expelled from the country and was given five hours to leave the United States. Otherwise, he would be wanted for criminal purposes, regardless of life or death! ——
At 3 pm, CIA Director Laurel rushed to the New York tenement base to meet with Kerry, hoping that he could stop the crackdown on Mossad and the Umbrella Company...

Kerry asked him a question in return: "Director Laurel, I really want to know whether you knew in advance that Mossad asked the Umbrella Company to target our CTU agents?"

Laurel was speechless and didn't know how to answer.

"It seems that you really knew, but you acquiesced to this happening!" Carrie said, "Then I understand. How can you have the nerve to come to see me after this matter has been exposed?"

After scolding Laurel away, Carrey was still a little angry. He called Palmer to tell him about the incident and expressed his opinion: this CIA director, who already has a lot of problems, cannot be kept!
Two hours later, the White House issued an administrative announcement: Terrence Lauer was removed from his position as CIA director for dereliction of duty, and former deputy director Daniel Bishop took over as director.

At 24 p.m., the State Department sent a special letter to the Israeli Embassy in an undisclosed manner, announcing that four intelligence officers in the embassy were personae non gratae and were expected to leave the country within hours.

At 15:24 in the evening, Levi received a report from a "friendly person": the Umbrella Corporation's branch in the United States was completely destroyed, people were shot dead, were arrested, and it was no longer able to carry out the scheduled tasks!
