RE: "they were behind it" What does it mean to be behind it without committing the crime? You lost me on this part. Sorry, those were the wrong words to use. They were aware of the plot but didn't warn the US. At least, that's the implication.....since these guys set up a camera before the event. RE: "setting up a camera across the river from Manhattan prior to the first plane hitting and shooting film of the event. We have never gotten a straight answer from Israel what they were doing there. Did Israeli intel know it was about to happen and did not bother to warn us" Israel apparently is well known for having excellent intelligence, so they probably did hear about it and probably did warn the USA, but probably pursued their own investigations because the USA probably ignored their warning. You'll note there were several media reports indicating foreign countries warned the USA. However, the US culture tends to respond to events that occur, not preventive warnings. Yes, but it was the Germans raising the red flags, not the Israelis. I don't remember Israel intel being mentioned. ted
