"But," Cameron added, "investigators with the DEA, INS and FBI have all told Fox News that to pursue or even suggest Israeli spying through Comverse is considered career suicide."
A fourth installment in the series noted that the number of Israeli citizens that had been detained as suspected members of a foreign intelligence operation was nearly 200, and that most of them had been deported. Most "had served in the Israeli military, which is compulsory there. But they also had, most of them, intelligence expertise, and either worked for Amdocs or other companies in Israel that specialize in wiretapping."
The Jewish newspaper, Forward, reported that "In recent years two reports, one by the Government Accounting Office, the other by the Defense Intelligence Agency, warned against Israeli economic and military espionage activity in the United States. In addition, the FBI conducted an investigation during the late 1990s into alleged Israeli wiretapping of the White House, the State Department and the National Security Council. The investigation ended in May 2000 without any result, according to The New York Times."
Then there were the reports of the five dancing Israelis who were arrested after behaving suspiciously upon witnessing the burning towers from New Jersey. The five were witnessed by their white van videotaping or taking photos of the smoking buildings and celebrating. The FBI put out an alert on the vehicle after a witness reported its license plate number, which was registered to a company called Urban Moving Systems, an Israeli owned company.
When they were found, the driver told the arresting officers, "We are Israeli. We are not your problem. Your problems are our problems. The Palestinians are the problem." The suspects' names came up in a search of the national intelligence database and they were suspected of conducting an intelligence operation. Forward noted that Urban Moving was a "company with few discernable assets that close up shop immediately afterward and whose owner fled to Israel."
Forward also noted the Israeli "art students" who had been detained on suspicion of espionage, and added that "a counterintelligence investigation by the FBI concluded that at least two" of the Israelis seen celebrating the attacks on the World Trade Center "were in fact Mossad operatives."
