- Years of tracking down an important set of
drug-trafficking
cases, led EIR investigators to what has now become a contender for the
story of the new century: the investigation of connections between Israeli
spies detained in the United States, and the events of Sept. 11. EIR's
own, Nov. 29, 2001 release, which was circulated to subscribers in the
Dec. 4, 2001 Executive Alert Service, was the opening gun.
-
- To properly appreciate the significance of the EIR
expose,
it is crucial to first restate some essential features of Lyndon LaRouche's
now-indisputable assessment of the events of Sept. 11, first aired on the
Jack Stockwell radio show, as the attacks on the World Trade Center and
the Pentagon were still occurring.
-
- LaRouche stated that the New York and Washington attacks
could not have occurred without the witting complicity of high-level
"rogue
elements" within the U.S. military-intelligence command
structures.
-
- The actions of Sept. 11 constituted a coup d'état
attempt against the Bush Administration, aimed at drawing the United States
into precisely the kind of "Clash of Civilizations" Eurasian
war, openly advocated by such individuals as Zbigniew Brzezinski, Samuel
Huntington, and Bush Administration "moles" like Paul Wolfowitz
and Richard Perle.
-
- The Israeli government of Ariel Sharon and the present
Israeli Defense Force command is the most significant
"marcher-lord"
asset of the Anglo-American faction pressing the "Clash of
Civilizations"
war-plan, as evidenced by Sharon's persistent efforts to provoke a new
religious war in the Middle East against the Palestinian Authority and
a range of other Arab targets.
-
- Thus the events of September 11 and the ongoing coup
threat must be first understood from the standpoint of the interaction
of these three elements: the as-yet unidentified rogue operators within
the military-security command; the strategic policy figures promoting the
new Eurasian Thirty Years War; and the Israeli apparatus of Sharon and
the IDF, which, as part of their war aims, has carried out an aggressive
espionage and covert operations penetration of the U.S.A., including the
recruitment of American-born assets. It is so far unknown, but to be
suspected,
that some of these Israeli assets may have been an included feature of
the rogue networks whose complicity was vital to the successful attacks
of Sept. 11.
-
- With that said, the story can be told.
-
- The Jones-Powell Exchange
-
- That Executive Alert Service item of Dec. 4 reported,
under the headline, "A Sharon spy network in the Americas?",
that "A well-placed Washington source has alerted EIR that there is
growing suspicion among U.S. government law enforcement and intelligence
agencies that Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon has dispatched special
operations teams into North America. The warning came in the context of
a discussion about the recent deportation of five Israelis who were
detained
on Sept. 11 for suspicious behavior."
-
- Since Secretary of State Colin Powell's answer to a
question
from EIR's Washington Bureau Chief Bill Jones, at a Dec. 13 special State
Department briefing, the lid is off the Israeli spy scandal and suggestions
of its links to the Sept. 11 irregular warfare attacks on the World Trade
Center and the Pentagon--despite desperate efforts at suppressing the
Israeli
spy story by most leading news media.
-
- At the Dec. 13 State Department briefing, Jones asked
Powell: "There were 60 Israeli citizens who have been picked up in
the post-Sept. 11 sweep, many of whom, if not all of whom, are connected
to Israeli intelligence... Are you concerned about such intelligence
operations
on U.S. soil, and have you taken up this issue with your counterpart in
Israel?"
-
- Secretary Powell responded: "I'm aware that some
Israeli citizens have been detained, and I've been in touch with the
Israeli
government as to the fact that they have been detained, in making sure
that they have rights of access to Israeli diplomatic personnel here in
the United States. With respect to why they are being detained, and the
other aspects of your question, whether it's because they are in
intelligence
services or what things they were doing, I will defer to the Department
of Justice and the FBI to answer that; because, frankly, I deal with the
consular parts of that problem, not the intelligence or law-enforcement
parts of that problem."
-
- Spies, Criminals, And Terrorists
-
- What was behind that exchange between Jones and
Powell?
-
- Since the Alert report of the Israeli spy story, and
the suspected links to Sept. 11, EIR has compiled evidence of a vast
network
of Israeli drug and diamond smugglers, spies, and communications
intelligence
operatives--all working under Israeli, American and Canadian corporate
covers, on behalf of the mafia-riddled Sharon government, and Sharon's
international sponsors in the Mega Group and allied Anglo-American circles
(See EIR, Aug. 31, 2001, "Mega Was Not An Agent--Mega Was the
Boss;"
and Nov. 16, 2001, "The `Mega-maniacs' Steering Sharon's Mideast War
Drive").
-
- A number of sources have confirmed earlier EIR
investigative
findings that this network is engaged in:
-
- * A massive ecstasy trafficking operation, delivering
hundreds of millions of dollars in illegal drugs, manufactured in the
Netherlands,
to cities across the United States. The drug trafficking operation is also
engaged in black market diamond smuggling, using Hassidic Jews as
couriers.
-
- * Portions of the funds garnered from the illegal
operations,
according to sources, are funneled to offshore bank accounts of Israeli
Prime Minister Ariel Sharon. Some of these dirty funds were reportedly
diverted to Sharon's election campaigns. This Israeli mafia apparatus
receives
technical support via a number of Israeli communications firms, that
subcontract
with major American telephone companies and U.S. law enforcement
agencies.
-
- * Spy operations, targeted at mosques and other centers
of the Islamic-American communities. According to sources, the goal is
to foment nominally "Arab" or "Islamic" labeled
violence
and terrorism inside the United States, to win Bush Administration support
for an Israeli war against the Palestinians and Arabs. These sources
believe
further, Israeli-abetted terror attacks are to be expected.
-
- * Surveillance of U.S. government law enforcement,
military
and intelligence facilities, to gather profile information for such
terrorist
attacks, as well as espionage penetration. Organized teams of young,
"recently
retired" Israeli Defense Force soldiers, often associated with
specialty
units engaged in electronic signal intercepts and explosive ordinance,
have targeted at least 36 domestic U.S. military bases, and many federal
law enforcement and intelligence installations. A second feature of this
targeting of USG facilities is the recruitment of "a new generation
of Jonathan Pollards" (Israeli spies).
-
- Pattern Of Arrests
-
- Between 1998 and early 2001, more than 200 Israeli
nationals
were arrested or detained inside the United States, on a variety of visa
violations and other nominally petty violations, including low-level drug
trafficking. The majority of these detainees claimed they were Israeli
art students, peddling art work to cover their college tuitions; or were
toy vendors, employed by an Israeli-owned Miami Beach company, Quality
Sales Corporation, which investigations link to Israel's equivalent of
the U.S. National Security Agency. The attorney for Quality Sales Corp.,
Thomas W. Dean, is also the director of litigation for the National
Organization
for the Reform of Marijuana Legislation (NORML), one of the oldest of the
drug legalization lobbies, which enjoys the financing of mega-speculator
George Soros.
-
- The emerging pattern of surveillance of American
government
facilities, and established links to suspected Arab and Islamic terrorist
cells prior to Sept. 11, by these Israeli nationals, set off alarm bells,
following the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. Prior
to Sept. 11, a series of highly-classified government memos had been
circulated
by the CIA and the NSA, pronouncing this Israeli espionage operation a
major national security problem.
-
- A drug probe in Los Angeles provided one crucial clue
to the broader drug/espionage/terror nexus. From 1997, up until he was
arrested by a joint anti-drug task force in April 2000, Jacob
"Cookie"
Orgad ran one of the biggest ecstasy smuggling operations in America--for
the Israeli dope-and-diamond crime syndicate. Orgad has been named as the
"enforcer" of the infamous Heidi Fleiss Hollywood prostitution
ring.
-
- Every time the DEA, FBI and Los Angeles Police Department
task force infiltrated an agent inside the Orgad ring, his or her identity
was blown within a matter of days. Everytime a court ordered wiretap was
put in place, the target immediately "began behaving like Mother
Teresa,"
according to a source familiar with the case.
-
- A highly confidential federal counter-surveillance effort
eventually revealed that the Orgad gang was receiving inside information
about phone taps, and even details of conversations between the federal
and local police officials on the task force, as well as their home
addresses
and phone numbers.
-
- Investigations into the sources of the leaks converged
on two prominent Israeli corporations, which are both core service
providers
to the American telecommunications industry and to U.S. law enforcement
agencies. The two companies are Amdocs and Comverse.
-
- Amdocs was first identified in the Aug. 31, 2001 EIR
expose of the Mega Group as part of the Israeli "inside"
apparatus
in the Clinton White House, that tapped the President's phone conversations
with Monica Lewinsky, and used the tapes as blackmail leverage against
the U.S. peace efforts in the Middle East.
-
- Amdocs was incorporated in 1982 on the notorious offshore
British financial safe-haven of Guernsey. It provides a wide range of
top-end
telecommunications services, including phone billings and fraud detection,
to the 25 largest telephone companies in the United States and to companies
in 50 other countries around the world. The overwhelming majority of its
9,000 employees are Israelis, and the top management are largely former
high-ranking officers of Israeli military and intelligence bureaus.
-
- Comverse, along with the Canadian company, JSI
International,
handles the majority of contracts, worldwide, for wiretaps, including in
the United States. Comverse is a major sub-contractor for both the FBI
and the Drug Enforcement Administration. Comverse, too, primarily employs
Israeli military and intelligence veterans. The company is a leading
manufacturer
of facial-recognition and voice-recognition technology, employed by
American
law enforcement and intelligence.
-
- Both firms have also been linked to the Israeli "art
students" and toy vendors.
-
- Where It Stands
-
- To summarize the EIR investigation as of this moment:
The same billionaires' club, called "Mega," which was pointed
to as the orchestrator of the 1997-99 operations against U.S. President
Bill Clinton, is multiply linked to the authors of the current Israeli
killing operations. It is situated in a network of U.S.A., Canada, Israeli,
and other business organizations at the center of the Israeli military
intelligence service's international operating capabilities. These
businesses,
like those involved in the Clinton White House message system scandal,
represent wiretapping and other espionage capabilities beyond the means
enjoyed by most leading governments.
-
- These connections should have been shut down totally,
even for no other reason than U.S. interest in protection of its citizens
against foreign and other spying, and in the protection of the secrets
of our sovereign government, and integrity of our intelligence and
law-enforcement
functions. While this Israeli-linked spying against the United States and
its most sensitive military, intelligence, and law-enforcement agencies
continues, the United States has no real national security. As long as
this is not cleaned up, the drug-traffickers, including those tied to
international
terrorist operations, often have more authority in criminal matters than
properly constituted law-enforcement and related official agencies.
