[PALESTINIANS] are not a rabble but a nation, perhaps somewhat tattered, but still living. A living people makes such enormousconcession on such fateful questions [as colonialization] whenthere is no hope left. Only when not a single breach is visiblein the iron wall, only then do extreme groups lose their swayand influence transfers to moderate groups. Only then would thesemoderate groups come to us with proposals for mutual concessionson such fateful questions like guarantees against expulsion,or equality and national autonomy.…the only path to such an agreementis the iron wall, that is to say the strengthening in Palestineof a government without any kind of Arab influence, that is tosay one against which the Arabs will fight. In other words, forus the only path to an agreement in the future is an absoluterefusal of any attempts at an agreement now.
—Vladimir Jabotinsky, 1923
Driving from Ann Arbor, Michigan, to Ames, Iowa, in mid-January is not a trip one embarks upon without good cause. But Henry Herskovitzbelieves his cause is good. He knows that in America’s Midwesta public relations war is being waged to secure unquestioning supportfor Israel. The Jewish Michigander wants to reach the hearts andminds of Midwesterners. He seeks not to control minds, but ratherurges people—especially those raised to value Zionism above allelse—to become aware and to think for themselves. Herskovitz wantsJews and non-Jews to think about Israeli occupation; the falsesuggestion that all Palestinians are antidemocratic radicals; andthe tactics used to silence those who dare speak out in recognitionof the political, economic and social imbalance that Israel hasover the Christian and Muslim Arabs.
An American Jewish objector to Israel’s colonial and violent occupation of Palestine, Herskovitz made the trek to Ames, Iowa,with filmmaker Thom Saffold, to see if any members of the AmesJewish community would talk to him about American Jewish supportof the Israel-First policy. He came in response to a request byorganizers (including the author) of “Palestine Unabridged,” athree-month film series held at the Ames Public Library from Sept.11 to Dec. 11, 2003. The series offered alternative views on theIsrael-Palestine conflict.
Here in Iowa, Revisionist Zionists—the ideological descendants of Vladimir Jabotinsky—are determined “to make someone pay” forthe film series’ success. Some 30 to 50 Jewish and Christian Zionistsstill are stunned that the familiar accusation of “anti-Semitic” failedto shut down the film series, nor did slander, isolation or dirtytricks against series organizers have the desired effect. Of apopulation of 50,000, this small group of Revisionist Zionist sympathizers,aided by the Jewish Federation of Greater Des Moines, tried toget two of our librarians fired, remove a leader of the Ames InterfaithCouncil, and dismiss a young Chicano activist who dared place a “PalestineUnabridged” poster in the window of his not-for-profit communityoffice. Explained one Zionist, “We cannot allow American institutionsto become a platform for anti-Israel thinking.”
But the Ames Public Library, the City of Ames and the organizations sponsoring “Palestine Unabridged” refused to be deterred by thefrequently employed tactic of interrupting and changing the subjectfrom Palestine to Israel. Initially, the Zionist opponents of freespeech and thought resorted to calling in a local fire marshalto turn on lights in the middle of the film “Rana’s Wedding” tosee if the library had allowed more people in the auditorium thanfire codes permit. The opening night ruse did not succeed, andthe show went on—for 11 more weeks. One hundred or more peopleattended each film and 30 to 60 participants discussed the issuesat a local coffee house on alternate weeks.
Have Cause, Will Travel
Henry Herskovitz has not always waved the flag for the Palestinian cause. An engineer focused on his successful career,Herskovitz spent little energy investigating what was going onin Palestine. Then, he retired. “I decided I had to go and seefirsthand what the conflict was all about,” he explained. “Of course,I had read about it over the years, but I really didn’t have agood grasp of the situation. I spent all my adult life using engineeringskillsto fix things, but I knew that I had to have experience to developreal insight into a mechanical problem and, certainly, into thisseemingly untenable human problem. Israel always seemed like agood idea to me, but I had questions.”
After a 2002 visit to Israel/Palestine, Herskovitz returned to Ann Arbor a changed man.His questions had been answered by firsthandexperience. Active in the Ann Arbor peacecommunity, Herskovitzassumed he would have no trouble telling his friends and fellowJewish community members about his trip and the disturbing realizationsstill reverberating in his head. He prepared a Power Point presentationabout the Israeli checkpoints, home demolitions, needless killingsand the attitude which he saw as destroying not only the Palestinians,but the Israelis, as well. Expectantly, Herskovitz called on thelocal rabbi to arrange a date for a showing. The answer was a shock. “No,” hewas told by Temple Beth Emeth (Reformed), Beth Israel Congregation(Conservative), Chabad House (Orthodox), and the Jewish CommunityCenter.
Herskovitz put himself on the line. He knocked on doors until all were slammed shut once and for all. Protest, he decided,was the only option. He formed a small group called Jewish Witnessesfor Peace and friends—with a small “f” for “friends” because hewants to make it clear that his concerns are Jewish issues. Heprinted up signs that read, “THIS IS NOT MY JUDAISM,” under a pictureof the Huwarra checkpoint; “STOP U.S. AID TO ISRAEL”; and “ANNARBOR JEWS SAY ‘END THE ISRAELI OCCUPATION.’”
On Sept. 13, 2003, as we in Ames were just beginning our film series, Herskovitz and a dozen others began weekly peaceful vigilsoutside Ann Arbor synagogues on Saturdays. They could not failto be seen by those coming and going to prayers and study.
After more than six months of weekly protest, Herskovitz says the best he can get from his “old” friends are comments such as,“Idon’t want to have a discussion with you, but I want to tell youjust one thing...”
Explains Herskovitz, “This one-way ‘conversation’ expressed how unhappy our vigils made [the woman]. As she walked away, we explainedthat it is not our intent to make anyone unhappy. However, herquestion begs inspection. If she had hung around, we would haveasked: ‘What is contained in our message that you find painful?And why is that message painful to you?’”
When Herskovitz came to Ames this past January 2004, only one Jewish friend of the author’s, a moderate Zionist, would speakwith him. Herskovitz gave him his card and said, “If you can get10 Jewish or Zionist folks from Ames to talk to me, I’ll driveback anytime.” That has yet to happen.
We Dared to Speak Out
Having produced a successful film series despite continuing efforts to silence us, Ames festival organizers are still payinga price for our determination. Economic threats, social isolationand hate-based rhetoric continue as our Zionist opposition is determinedto let the rest of the community know the turmoil they will createfor anyone who speaks out against the Israeli occupation. RevisionistZionists continue to insist on an official, public apology.
One series objector who now works for our local paper never fails to flaunt her disdain for “Palestine Unabridged” when she visitsthe Ames Public Library and talks to library staff. As she andothers told us on the last night of our program, “What you didwas a mistake.”
Other partisans of Israel have spent the last four months harassing the library board, demanding a public apology and “unofficial” censorshipthrough policy changes designed to deny the public access to programscritical of Israel. As Joel Beinin wrote in “Thought Control forMiddle East Studies,” his March 31 Common Dreams critiqueof the Zionist tweaking of Title VI of the U.S. Higher EducationAct, the idea is “to study, monitor, apprise, and evaluate” suspectprograms at American universities. According to Beinin, Washingtonneocons want “to assert political control over teaching, research,and public programs” so that Americans will remain oblivious toanything unfavorable to Israel or America’s support of Israelipolicy.
In Ames, Iowa, we are discovering that this kind of mind control is occurring outside the academy, as well.
Henry Herskovitz in Ann Arbor and our small group here in Ames have put ourselves on the line in an effort to make people awareofthe evils of colonization in Palestine and the use of the “anti-Semite” labelto stifle debate. As of mid-April, Herskovitz reported, the executivedirector of the Jewish Federation of Washtenaw County solicitedletters from socially prominent Ann Arbor community members. Thirteenpeople have responded, writing anti-Herskovitz letters to the localAnn Arbor news. Letters in support of “vigillers” are increasing,however.
Henry Herskovitz knows that peace starts with just one voice, and he is as encouraged as we are. Jewish Witnesses for Peace andfriends, the “Palestine Unabridged” series, and the actions ofInformation Age groups everywhere are signs of a growing grassrootsmomentum. The work for peace has just begun.

SIDEBAR Henry Herskovitz In His Own WordsJewish Americans Can Help End Conflict (letter to the Feb. 25, 2004 Ann Arbor News): Our group, formed last year, is called “Jewish Witnesses for Peace and friends.” We hold silent vigils in front ofBeth Israel Congregation primarily to raise awareness ofthe effects of Israel’s 36-year-old illegal occupation ofPalestinian land. Our venue is the synagogue, because theaudience we wish to address is mainstream American Jews,very much like ourselves. Many of the Jewish people who attend synagogue are those who financially and politically support Israel. Our goalis to end this funding of Israel’s occupation, financed byindividual contributions, and by our tax dollars and loanguarantees. Ending the occupation is the most logical andnecessary way to bring a just and lasting peace to the region.The estimated amount of money donated through these sourcestotals $15 million every day (Source: Washington Reporton Middle East Affairs). Our vigil accomplishes much more, however. To non-Jews, who might be critical of Israeli policies but too concernedto speak lest they be labeled “anti-Semites,” we offer themthe observance that Jewish Americans come forth and criticizethe Israeli government. The Jewish community can play a vital and significant role in reducing the continuing slaughter of innocents in Israeland Palestine, both Jewish and Palestinian. Many in our grouphave been to Palestine and have witnessed firsthand the horrorsof occupation. Henry Herskovitz, Ann Arbor On AIPAC’s Chicago Conference, “The Israel Summit—Tools for Action” Perhaps most shocking to this observer was the nationalist tone set by this conference. A large room with hundreds ofdining tables housed 1,600 attendees (650 students). At thefront, on stage, stood the speakers’ table flooded in brightlight. Flanking the speakers were four national flags: twoIsraeli (large and small) on the speaker’s left, and like-sizedUnited States flags, on his/her right. The show of power of this lobby was not limited just to physical surroundings. Illinois Sen. Dick Durbin and nineIllinois congressional representatives each spoke about theircommitment to Israel, and to the goal of AIPAC—“Stengtheningthe U.S.-Israel relationship.” Jesse Jackson, Jr. spoke ofhis AIPAC-sponsored trip to Israel, and thanked the organizationalong with local rabbis (esp. Rabbi David Saperstein) forthe privilege of traveling there. He declared “most moving” washis trip to Yad Vashem, Jerusalem’s Holocaust Memorial, andsubsequent “need” for the Jewish State. Congresswoman JanSchakowsky explained how helpful AIPAC is to citizens runningfor Congress: they will help the politician-to-be draft his/herIsrael solidarity statement. And wealth: Many of the 650 students in attendance were flown in at the expense of just three local businessmen.The ability to raise funds for Israel is just one of AIPAC’smany strengths. As peace activists dedicated to Palestinianself-determination, we have our work cut out for ourselves. |

A lawsuitfiled against the U.S. National Security Agency revealsa frightening array of technologies and programsdesigned to keep tabs on individuals. John StClair Akwei Thefollowing document comprises evidence for a lawsuitfiled at the U.S. Courthouse in Washington, DC, by JohnSt Clair Akwei against the National Security Agency, FtGeorge G. Meade, Maryland (Civil Action 92-0449),constitutes his knowledge of the NSA's structure,national security activities proprietary technologiesand covert operations to monitor individual citizens Ed. |
1. THE NSA'SMISSION AND DOMESTIC INTELLIGENCE OPERATION
Communications Intelligence (COMINT)
Blanket coverage of all electronic communications in the US andthe world to ensure national security. The NSA at Ft Meade,Maryland has had the most advanced computers in the world sincethe early 1960s. NSA technology is developed and implemented insecret from private corporations, academia and the generalpublic.Signals Intelligence (SICINT)
The Signals Intelligence mission of the NSA has evolved into aprogram of decoding EMF waves in the environment for wirelesslytapping into computers and track persons with the electricalcurrents in their bodies. Signals Intelligence is based on factthat everything in the environment with an electric current init has a magnetic flux around it which gives off EMF waves. TheNSA/DoD [Department of Defense] developed proprietary advanceddigital equipment which can remotely analyze all objects whethermanmade or organic, that have electrical activity.Domestic Intelligence (DOMINT)
The NSA has records on all US citizens. The NSA gathersinformation on US citizen who might be of interest to any of theover 50,000 NSA agents (HUMINT). These agents are authorized byexecutive order to spy on anyone. The NSA has a permanentnational security anti-terrorist surveillance network in place.This surveillance network is completely disguised and hiddenfrom the public.
Tracking individuals in the US is easily and cost-effectivelyimplemented with NSA's electronic surveillance network. Thisnetwork (DOMINT) covers the entire US, involves tens ofthousands of NSA personnel, and tracks millions of personssimultaneously . Cost-effective implementation of operations isassured by NSA computer technology designed to minimizeoperations costs. NSA personnel serve in quasi-public positionsin their communities and run cover businesses and legitimatebusinesses that can inform the intelligence community of personsthey would want to track. NSA personnel in the community usuallyhave cover identities such as social workers, lawyers andbusiness owners.Individual Citizens OccasionallyTargeted for Surveillance by Independently Operating NSAPersonnel
NSA personnel can control the lives of hundreds of thousands ofindividuals in the US by using the NSA's domestic intelligencenetwork and cover businesses. The operations independently runby them can sometimes go beyond the bounds of law. Long-termcontrol and sabotage of tens of thousands of unwitting citizensby NSA operatives is likely to happen.NSA DOMINT has theability to assassinate US citizens covertly or run covertpsychological control operations to cause subjects to bediagnosed with ill mental health.
The above symptomshighlight a fraction of the vast array of
Neuro-Electromagnetic Frequency Assaults perpetuated by the Policeand
Military Intelligence Agencies toward
Remote Mind Control Experiments, Behavioral Manipulation andMurder.
2. NSA'SDOMESTIC ELECTRONIC SURVEILLANCE NETWORK
As of the early 1960s, the most advanced computers in the world wereat the NSA, Ft Meade. Research breakthroughs with these computerswere kept for the NSA. At the present time the NSA hasnanotechnology computers that are 15 years ahead of present computertechnology. The NSA obtains blanket coverage of information in theUS by using advanced computers that use artificial intelligence toscreen all communications, regardless of medium, for key words thatshould be brought to the attention of NSA agents/cryptologists.
These computers monitor allcommunications at the transmitting and receiving ends. This blanketcoverage of the US is a result of the NSA's Signals Intelligence (SIGINT)mission. The NSA's electronic surveillance network is based on acellular arrangement of devices that can monitor the entire EMF(electromagnetic frequency)spectrum.
This equipment was developed, implemented and kept secretin the same manner as other electronic warfare programs.
Signals Intelligence RemoteComputer Tampering
The NSA keeps track of all PCs and other computers sold in theUS. This is an integral part of the Domestic Intelligencenetwork. The NSA's EMF equipment can tune in RF (remotefrequency) emissions frompersonal computer circuit boards (while filtering out emissionsfrom monitors and power sup- plies).The RF emission from PCcircuit boards contains digital information in the PC. Coded RFwaves from the NSA's equipment can resonate PC circuits andchange data in the PCs. Thus the NSA can gain wirelessmodem-style entry into any computer in the country forsurveillance or anti-terrorist electronic warfare.
Detecting EMF Fields in Humansfor Surveillance
A subject's bioelectric field can be remotely detected, sosubjects can be monitored anywhere they are. With special EMFequipment NSA cryptologists can remotely read evoked potentials(from EEGs). These can be decoded into a person's brain-statesand thoughts. The subject is then perfectly monitored from adistance. NSA personnel can dial up any individual in thecountry on the Signals Intelligence EMF scanning network and theNSA's computers will then pinpoint and track that person 24hours a day.The NSA can pick out and track anyone in the US.
3. NSA SIGNALSINTELLIGENCE USE OF EMF BRAIN STIMULATION
NSA Signals Intelligence uses EMF Brain Stimulation forRemoteNeural Monitoring (RNM) and Electronic Brain Link (EBL). EMF BrainStimulation has been in development since theMKULTRA program of theearly 1950s, which included neurological research into radiation(non-ionizing EMF) and bioelectric research and development.
Theresulting secret technology is categorized at the National SecurityArchives as "Radiation Intelligence", defined as,
"information from unintentionallyemanated electromagnetic waves in the environment, not includingradioactivity or nuclear detonation".
Signals Intelligence implemented andkept this technology secret in the same manner as other electronicwarfare programs of the US Government. The NSA monitors availableinformation about this technology and withholds scientific researchfrom the public. There are also international intelligenceagreements to keep this technology secret.
The NSA has proprietary electronic equipment that analyze electricalactivity in humans from a distance. NSA computer generated brainmapping can continuously monitor all of the electrical activity inthe brain continuously. The NSA records and decode individual brainmaps (of hundreds of thousands of persons) for national securitypurposes. EMF Brain Stimulation is also secretly used by themilitary for brain-to-computer link (in military fighter aircraft,for example).
For electronic surveillance purposes, electrical activity in thespeech center of the brain can be translated into the subject'sverbal thoughts. RNM can send encoded signals to the brain'sauditory cortex, thus allowing audio communications direct to thebrain (bypassing the ears). NSA operatives can use this covertly todebilitate subjects by simulating auditory hallucinationscharacteristic of paranoid schizophrenia.
Without any contact with the subject, Remote Neural Monitoring canmap out electrical activity from the visual cortex of a subject'sbrain and show images from the subject's brain on a video monitor.NSA operatives see what the surveillance subject's eyes are seeing.Visual memory can also be seen. RNM can send images direct to thevisual cortex, bypassing the eyes and optic nerves.
NSA operativescan use this surreptitiously to put images into a surveillancesubject's brain while they are in REM sleep for brain-programmingpurposes.
Capabilities of NSA OperativesUsing RNM
There has been a Signals Intelligence network in the US sincethe 1940s. The NSA, Ft Meade has in place a vast two-waywireless RNM system which is used to track subjects andnon-invasively monitor audio-visual information in their brains.This is all done with no physical contact with the subject. RNMis the ultimate method of surveillance and domesticintelligence. Speech, 3D sound and subliminal audio can be sentto the auditory cortex of the subject's brain (bypassing theears), and images can be sent into the visual cortex. RNM canalter a subject's perceptions, moods and motor control.
Speech cortex/auditory cortex link has become the ultimatecommunications system for the intelligence community. RNM allowsfor a complete audio-visual brain-to-brain link or brain-to-computer link.
The above is a simpleflowchart of Nuero-Electromagnetic Frequency Assaults
showing methods thatcan be perpetuated by the Police and Military Intelligence Agencies
toward Remote MindControl Experiments, Behavioural Manipulation and Murder.
4. NATIONALSECURITY AGENCY SIGNALS INTELLIGENCE ELECTRONIC BRAIN LINKTECHNOLOGY
NSA SIGINT can remotely detect, identifyand monitor a person's bioelectric fields.
The NSA's Signals Intelligence has the proprietary ability tomonitor remotely and non-invasively information in the human brainby digitally decoding the evoked potentials in the 30-50 Hz, 5 milliwatt electromagnetic emissions from the brain.
Neuronal activity in the brain creates a shifting electrical patternthat has a shifting magnetic flux. This magnetic flux puts out aconstant 30-50 Hz, 5 milliwatt electromagnetic (EMF) wave. Containedin the electromagnetic emission from the brain are spikes andpatterns called "evoked potentials". Every thought, reaction, motorcommand, auditory event and visual image in the brain has acorresponding "evoked potential" or set of "evoked potentials". TheEMF emission from the brain can be decoded into the currentthoughts, images and sounds in the subject's brain.
NSA SIGINT uses EMF-transmitted Brain Stimulation as acommunications system to transmit information (as well as nervoussystem messages) to intelligence agents and also to transmit to thebrains of covert operations subjects (on a non-perceptible level).
EMF Brain Stimulation works by sending a complexly coded and pulsedelectromagnetic signal to trigger evoked potentials (events) in thebrain, thereby forming sound and visual images in the brain's neuralcircuits. EMF Brain Stimulation can also change a person'sbrain-states and affect motor control.
Two-way electronic Brain Link is done by remotely monitoring neuralaudio-visual information while transmitting sound to the auditorycortex (bypassing the ears) and transmitting faint images to thevisual cortex (bypassing the optic nerves and eyes). The imagesappear as floating 2D screens in the brain.
Two-way electronic Brain Link has become the ultimate communicationssystem for CIA/NSA personnel. Remote neural monitoring (RNM,remotely monitoring bioelectric information in the human brain) hasbecome the ultimate surveillance system.
It is used by a limitednumber of agents in the US Intelligence Community.
The above is a simpleflowchart of Nuero-Electromagnetic Frequency Assaults
showing methods thatcan be perpetuated by the Police and Military Intelligence Agenciestoward
Remote Mind Control Experiments, Behavioural Manipulation andMurder.
5. [NO HEADINGIN ORIGINAL DOCUMENT]
RNM requires decoding the resonance frequency of each specific brainarea. That frequency is then modulated in order to imposeinformation in that specific brain area. The frequency to which thevarious brain areas respond varies from 3 Hz to 50 Hz. Only NSASignals Intelligence modulates signals in this frequency band. (SeeTable 1 below)
This modulated information can be putinto the brain at varying intensities from subliminal toperceptible. Each person's brain has a unique set of bioelectricresonance/entrainment frequencies. Sending audio information to aperson's brain at the frequency of another person's auditory cortexwould result in that audio information not being perceived.
The Plaintiff learned of RNM by being in two-way RNM contact withthe Kinnecome group at the NSA, Ft Meade.
They used RNM 3D sound direct to the brain to harass the Plaintifffrom October 1990 to May 1991.
As of 5/91 they have had two-way RNM communications with thePlaintiff and have used RNM to attempt to incapacitate the Plaintiffand hinder the Plaintiff from going to the authorities about theiractivities against the Plaintiff in the last 12 years. The Kinnecomegroup has about 100 persons working 24 hours a day at Ft Meade. Theyhave also brain-tapped persons the Plaintiff is in contact with tokeep the Plaintiff isolated.
This is the first time ever that aprivate citizen has been harassed with RNM and has been able tobring a lawsuit against NSA personnel misusing this intelligenceoperations method.
6. NSATECHNIQUES AND RESOURCES
Remote monitoring/tracking of individuals in any location, insideany building, continuously, anywhere in the country.
A system forinexpensive implementation of these operations allows for thousandsof persons in every community to be spied on constantly by the NSA.
Remote RNM Devices
NSA's RNM equipment remotely reads the evoked potentials (EEGs)of the human brain for tracking individuals, and can sendmessages through the nervous systems to affect theirperformance. RNM can electronically identify individuals andtrack them anywhere in the US. This equipment is on a networkand is used for domestic intelligence operations, governmentsecurity and military base security, and in case of bioelectricwarfare.Spotters and Walk-Bys inMetropolitan Areas
Tens of thousands of persons in each area working as spottersand neighbourhood/business place spies (sometimes unwittingly)following and checking on subjects who have been identified for covert control by NSA personnel.
Agents working out of offices can be in constant communicationwith spotters who are keeping track of the NSA's thousands ofsubjects in public. NSA agents in remote offices can instantlyidentify (using~ RNM) any individual spotted in public who is incontact with surveillance subject.Chemicals and Drugs intoResidential Buildings with Hidden NSA Installed and MaintainedPlastic Plumbing lines.
The NSA has kits for running lines into residential tap waterand air ducts of subjects for the delivery of drugs (such assleeping gas or brainwashing-aiding drugs). This is an outgrowthof CIA pharmapsychology (psychopharmacology).Brief Overview of Proprietary USIntelligence/Anti-Terrorist Equipment Mentioned
Fixed network of special EMF equipment that can read EEGs inhuman brains and identify/track individuals by using digitalcomputers. ESB (Electrical Stimulation to the Brain) via EMFsignal from the NSA Signals Intelligence is used to controlsubjects.
EMF equipment that gathers information from PC circuit boards bydeciphering RF emissions, thereby gaining wireless modem-styleentry into any personal computer in the country. All equipmenthidden, all technology secret, all scientific researchunreported (as in electronic warfare research). Not known to thepublic at all, yet complete and thorough implementation of thismethod of domestic intelligence has been in place since theearly 1980s.
Editor's Note:
I tried ringing MrAkwei to find out what was the out-come, if any, of his court case.He firmly but kindly told me that he could not speak about anythingto do with the case over the phone and hung up. A subsequentconversation of similar length resulted in the information that hedid not wish his address or phone number published with thisarticle.
So, if we hear of any developments, we'll let you know.
Its totallyobvious from the above article that the US NationalSecurity Agency is none other than a covertly runterrorist organization. |

Following the N.J. corruption money trail: Money laundering splintered into political probe
by The Star-Ledger Continuous News Desk
Thursday July 23, 2009, 5:21 PM
NEWARK -- What began as a federal investigation into money laundering by Syrian Jewish community leaders in New Jersey and New York two years ago spawned into a broad web of political corruption that enveloped two N.J. assemblymen and three mayors.
At the heart of the probe was the money. The politicians are accused of taking bribes. And five rabbis are accused of laundering it through their non-profit religious institutions, while keeping a cut for themselves. One Brooklyn man, who was among the 44 charged today, was even accused of trying to broker a $160,000 deal for a kidney transplant.
Full Star-Ledger coverage of the New Jersey corruption arrests
In the last two years alone, a confidential witness --identified by sources close to the investigation as millionaire real estate developer Solomon Dwek -- laundered $3 million through the rabbis, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office, which declined to name the witness.
"He openly discussed with targets that he was in bankruptcy and was attempting to conceal cash and assets, and told them he wanted to launder criminal proceeds in increments ranging from tens of thousands of dollars to $150,000 or more at a time, often at the rate of several transactions per week," the U.S. Attorney's Office said in a statement announcing thecharges.
In addition to the 44 arrests, federal authorities today seized 28 bank accounts in the names of those charged with laundering money.
The key players, according to federal authorities, include Eliahu Ben Haim, of Long Branch, the rabbi for Congregation Ohel Yaacob in Deal. He is accused of taking payments as large as $160,000 made payable to his charitable, tax-exempt organization and laundering it for a 10 percent fee, authorities said.
Saul Kassin, a prominent rabbi in Brooklyn, and Edmund Nahum, the leader of a synagogue in Deal, orchestrated similar money laundering rings, according to the federal complaints. Brooklyn rabbis Mordchai Fish and his brother Lavel Schwartz were also charged with laundering money.
The money was laundered, in part, through cash houses in Brooklyn, as well as an Israeli named Levi Deutsch, who traveled frequently between New York and Israel. According to the complaint, he told the cooperating witness that his source of cash was the diamond business, and a Swiss banker.
The connection to New Jersey politics, however, came long after the initial investigation began. In June 2007, the expanding money laundering probe led the cooperating witness to be introduced to Jersey City building inspector John Guarini, who is charged with taking $40,000 in bribes from the witness, according to the federal charges.
That launched a wave of meetings where the cooperating witness bribed other officials with envelopes stuffed with cash during dinners in restaurants from Atlantic City to Staten Island, according to the complaints.
The bribes, according to federal authorities, to the key politicians included:
-- Hoboken Mayor Peter Cammarano $25,000
-- Assemblyman L. Harvey Smith (D-Hudson) $15,000
-- Jersey City Deputy Mayor Leona Beldini $20,000 (in campaign contributions)
-- Secaucus Mayor Dennis Elwell $10,000
-- Ridgefield Mayor Anthony Suarez $10,000
-- Assemblyman Daniel Van Pelt (R-Ocean) $10,000
Hoboken Mayor Peter Cammarano III, Secaucus Mayor Dennis Elwell led in handcuffs into FBI building |

Now, I come to find out there is crime and criminals in the suburbs! Among white people! And the wealthy! I am just shocked. SHOCKED.

This has probably been going on for many many years, yet it took the canary Solomon Dwek to bring it to the attention of the FBI.
Why wasnt this investigated sooner? too many powerful people behind it? nobody wanted to take on the Jewish Communities in Deal & Brooklyn and Israel for that matter?

As to the Cooperating Witness, what about his crimes and those of all the developers who have run rampant through Hudson County.

"The connection to New Jersey politics, however, came long after the initial investigation began."
In other words no one in NJ was doing a thing about the corruption. Christie and Milgram did absolutely nothing. I am tired of people portraying this as great for Christie. The truth is he was willing to let things continue because he just intended to put his people in bribe taking positions. Both Christie and Milgram continuously ignored complaints in NJ. Neither deserves credit for thework done by the Feds.

Since Peter Cammarano was sworn in, I became a curious reader of the bloggers' postings on this website by all parties. Rarely was there an exchange about this recent Mayoral election that lacked provocative and instigating commentary that often veered away from the original subject matter and context of the posted article. The central themes of the post exchanges seemed toalways lead back to adversarial and confrontational viewpoints rooted in 'us'versus 'them'. (Note these references are intentionally vague so that you maychoose to consider yourself a member of either group). What I always foundfascinating was how some of the viewpoints expressed were based in such adiscernable sense of entitlement. While it is obvious to see how those whoopposed the Cammarano contingency have these recent events to demonstrate thevalidity of their prior criticisms, what is most fascinating is the deafeningsilence from those who were the most ardent advocates of not only Cammarano butthe historical operation of govenrment that he apparently represented.
What now can be said of the man, the officials, the way that things have beenfor so long?
Could a new beginning actually be happening?
Time will tell and I believe there are many individuals who are questioning themselvesand their actions and whether or not they have reason to be concerned for theirown expectations of priviledge.

baligirl Have you even read the newspaper articles? The investigation has been in place for ten years. Christie at least has a record of 134-0 in idicting and jailing corrupt officials. He has just recently left the office as the Fed prosecutor. That connection to NJ politics came during Christies tenure. It is evident where your sympathy lies but going after campus gossipsites and mislabled footpads and Ticketmaster (which sort of petered out onceit was discovered that Corzines friends from the NJSEA may have receivedfavorable treatment) is not exactly where the 'meat' lies. Where has Milgrambeen on Encap or Xanadu or gang activity in the prisons? When will Neil Cohenactually be processed? Maybe he's ready to give up the rest of the legislature.What about pushing Codey on the Christmas tree slush fund.

Here's Corzine's response after a member of his cabinet, Department of Community Affairs Commissioner Joe Doria, resigned:
"My administration will not tolerate, nor has it tolerated, the kind of public corruption
unveiled today," said Corzine, who called the charges against 44 people announced today "outrageous."
Corzine is essentially saying, "now that other people have found out about the corruption in my administration, I'm outraged!"
Hmmmm.....what about $100+ million of "special municipal aid" that was doled out through Doria and the DCA to a bunch of these towns, without any explanation of how they were chosen to receive this "aid."
Does this maybe have anything to do with the so-called MAC accounts, essentially legislator controlled slush funds, that the Corzine Administration setup with Codey, Bryant, et al.?
Corzine can save his fake outrage. At the worst, he has tolerated corruption withing his administration. At best, he has blocked ethics reform that would have prevented some of this,
Kick this bum out!

madjersyan "For those Obama bashers it was a decnt mix of dems and gop."
Actually, no it wasn't. Of the 20 elected officials who were arrested, 19 were Democrats, and just one was Republican.
To be sure, both elected Democrats and Republicans alike can be corrupted. In this case, however, it's almost 100% Democrats.
There's a reason that the FBI raided the home and Trenton office of Corzine's DCA Commissioner today. Billions of dollars of Obama's stimulus money has flowed throught he DCA. Hundreds of millions of Corzine's "special municipal aid" have flowed through the DCA.
The DCA is a department in Corzine's executive branch that he directly controls. This corruption directly touches Jon Corzine.

"One guy is going to rat out another guy who is going to rat out another guy," McCann said. "If they arrested 40 today, there will be 140 before the year is over."

http://www.thewe.cc/weplanet/news/depleted_uranium_iraq_afghanistan_balkans.html MORET: Yes, and that’s exactly what it is. We’ve conducted four nuclear wars since 1991. Yeah, these are nuclear wars. DU is a nuclear weapon. ICONOCLAST: From the point of view of a scientist, what needs to happen to correct this? MORET: Well, we need to stop the use of it. We’ve built an international movement to stop the use, the manufacture, the storage, the sales, and the deployment ofdepleted uranium weapons. ICONOCLAST: Are the munitions we sell to other countries contained with depleted uranium? MORET: We have. In 1968 the first depleted uranium weapons systems that we found a patent for suddenly appeared in the U.S. patent office. It was for the Navy. It was sort of a Gatling gun style weapon system that you mounted on ships. It rapidly fires like 2,500 bullets a minute. It’s over 3,000 now. They’ve improved the design. Then in 1973, we gave depleted uranium weapons systems to the Israelis and supervised their use. They used them in the Arab-Israeli war and completely wiped out the Arabs in five days. Then the show was on theroad. That was the first actual battlefield demonstration of this newweapon system. Hughes Aircraft developed the full-length system which is for the Navy. That’s the Gatling gun system. They still use it. That was produced in 1974 and tested. Within six months the U.S. government had sold the DUweapons system to 12 entities which included many branches of the U.S.military and other counties. We’ve sold DU weapons systems to about — we don’t know exactly for sure — it’s been about 12 or 17 countries. The good news is that normally such a weapons system that effective would have been sold to 80, 100, or 120 countries by now. But because of the radiological, biological, and environmental hazard, countries were not only afraid to buy it, the ones who did buy it are afraid to use it. |
Only countries that have used DU as weapon are Britain, the U.S., and Israel The only countries we know that have used DU are Britain, the U.S., and Israel. The United Nations in 1996 passed a resolution that depleted uranium weapons are weapons of mass destruction, and they are illegal under all international laws and treaties. In 2001, the European Parliament passed a resolution on DU. What happened is that the NATO forces went into Yugoslavia in 1998 and ’99 and flew 39,000 bombing runs and completely bombed Yugoslavia into radioactive rubble. Germany and the U.S. made the most money on the destruction of Yugoslavia, and they made sure that countries that didn’t know about the DU, that the peacekeepers from those countries like from Italy and Portugal, were sent to the mostcontaminated regions in Yugoslavia. |

Oregon soldiers sue KBR for exposure tocancer-causing chemical in Iraq
by Julie Sullivan, The Oregonian
Monday June 08, 2009, 7:13 PM
Five current and former Oregon Army National Guard soldiers filed suit Monday against a war contractor that they say knowingly exposed them to a cancer-causing chemical in Iraq.
The suit alleges that managers from Kellogg, Brown & Root, or KBR, of Houston knew before the Oregon Guard arrived at the Qarmat Ali water treatment plant in May 2003 that the site was contaminated by hexavalent chromium, a highly toxic and long-identified carcinogen.
The plaintiffs allege the company either failed to do the required testing a month before the Guard arrived or destroyed the records to conceal the contamination. KBR also discounted soldiers' and civilians' bloody noses and other symptoms of exposure as sand allergies.
The Oregon Guard had been assigned to protect civilian employees working at the treatment plant, a key component of Iraqi oil production.
In a written statement Monday, KBR director of communications Heather L. Browne said the company appropriately notified the Army Corps of Engineers, which oversaw the contractor's work.
"KBR has provided the results of environmental testing and assessments to the U.S. Military and will continue to fully cooperate with the government on this issue," she wrote. "KBR did not knowingly harm troops."
According to the suit filed in U.S. District Court in Portland, KBR's health safety manager in southern Iraq knew in May 2003 the plant was contaminated with sodium dichromate, a corrosion fighter that is almost pure hexavalent chromium. (The military believes Saddam loyalists opened and scattered bags ofit as they fled the plant.) Plaintiffs allege that KBR managers repeatedly toldU.S. and British soldiers there was no danger, even after blood tests oncivilian workers later confirmed elevated chromium levels.
The suit says the five plaintiffs developed symptoms of hexavalent chromium poisoning and continue to suffer breathing problems, stomach and esophageal ulcers and headaches, and face a greater risk of cancer and impact on their offspring. The Oregon troops served with the 1st Battalion, 162ndInfantry Division that rotated through duties guarding civilians at Qarmat Alifrom April to June 2003.
Four of the plaintiffs -- Larry Roberta, of Aumsville, Scott Ashby of Lake Oswego. Rocky Bixby of Hillsboro and Matthew Hadley of Aloha -- completed their Guard obligation and are civilians. Capt. Charles Ellis of Junction City remains with the Guard and is deploying to Iraq with the 41st Infantry Brigade in July.
Last month, Roberta and Ashby testified before the Oregon Legislature, which is considering a bill to set up a small fund to help exposed soldiers who develop cancer.
Attorneys for the soldiers, David Sugerman of Portland and Michael Doyle of Houston, said they expect several West Virginia National Guard members who served at the Iraqi water plant to file a similar suit. Last year, 16 Indiana National Guard members who replaced the Oregon troops at Qarmat Ali and10 civilian contractors who worked at the facility also sued KBR. Under federalrules, civilians working on military bases are limited in their ability to sueemployers, and that case has been in a confidential arbitration.
Since news coverage by The Oregonian in January, more than two dozen Oregon veterans have asked to be placed on a registry and more than a dozen have reported health issues to the National Guard or VA, mostly breathing problems.
