Good link in that "antiwar.com" article on What Israel knew..

The Israeli "spy ring" issue is very confusing..

Obviously very amateurish in its conduct (deliberately?), with mysterious mission goals (DEA?? Why??)

And it has been covered up by both sides, just like the "dancing moving men" they caught filming the WTC attack on 9/11 shouting and cheering over the attack..

I still submit that Israel knew more than they are willing to admit, just as Churchill knew about Pearl Harbor before that attack...

But they wanted the US on "their side" and had no reason to tell us...

Of course, I can't prove any of this... But that's my gut feeling..

As for the "art students"... if they were involved in conducting low key surveillance on Al-Qaeda, their "managers" are some of the most inept folks involved in espionage.

Somewhere in there I'm on record as skeptical, in contrast to a somewhat obsessive local "dot connector". Like Hawkmoon and our esteemed moderator, I'm of the opinion that the DEA angle in all this is , you know, weird.

Thanks for posting the article...

What is really funny is that I actually watched the Fox News special report about the Israeli spy ring. However, to my dismay, and before they aired the final segment, it was pulled and never again mentioned...almost as if it had never existed. No explanation, nothing. To go along with that, all transcipts and remnants of the aired report were removed from the Fox Website (I had gone there to get a few quotes for a post I was making). Gotta wonder whats up with that? Whatever happened to "freedom of the press"?
