But Der Spiegel knows better than to implicate the Israelis in anything untoward, and instead mournfully reports that "observation of the … terrorists also ceased" when the "art students" were apprehended. But if the information had been shared then and there – in March, when the authorities first became aware of the Hollywood-centered South Florida operation – then what prevented the FBI from taking up where the Mossad had left off? Der Spiegel is vague about this: "The Israelis' list with at least four of the 19 assassins from September 11 was apparently not handled by the CIA with the necessary urgency, nor was it forwarded to the FBI. Fact is that the US authorities did not efficiently follow up on the Israeli agents' leads. Information on the Israeli tips has also been made known in the USA during the , which been ongoing for weeks."
While the FBI is scapegoated for its alleged inefficiency, the Israelis were not exactly forthcoming. On March 3, 2001, alerted to the Israeli "art student" invasion, the Orlando office of the DEA took one Peer Segalovitz into custody, and interrogated him for four hours. According to the DEA report:
"Segalovitz was untruthful about his reasoning to be in the United States for approximately the first 3 hours. Segalovitz finally admitted that he was one of approximately 30 Israeli art students who are currently in Florida. Segalovitz would not admit what their purpose was in Florida, but did state that they were not here for legitimate means."
A 27-year-old officer of the Israeli special military forces, attached to the 650th battalion stationed in the Golan Heights, Segalovitz gave his rank (Lieutenant) and serial number (5087989) and said that he "specialized in demolition." After recounting his familiarity with military operations, and stating "that the only thing he was not trained to operate was military aircraft," he "asked agents not to divulge this information to Israel because it would lead to his immediate arrest in Israel."
If it's true, as Der Spiegel avers, that the distinguished members of the Senate Committee investigating 9/11 are pinning the blame on our own intelligence agencies and exonerating the role of the Mossad, one can only wonder why they don't call Mr. Segalovitz as an expert witness?

What I like best about Online Intelligence is that it names names:
"A few of the operatives are well known in the Israeli intelligence
community. The report cited the names of Peer Segalovitz (military
registration number 5087989) and Aran Ofek, son of a renowned two-star
general in the Israeli army. The network targeted some of the most
sensitive sites in the U.S., such as Tanker Air Force Base near Oklahoma
City. Indeed, the U.S. Air Force's Office of Special Investigation sent
a letter to the Justice Department on May 16 of last year to ask for
assistance in a case against four Israelis suspected of spying: Yaron
Ohana, Ronen Kalfon, Zeev Cohen and Naor Topaz."
ISRAEL'S UNDERGROUND ARMY

According to the DEA, Israel's underground army in the US consisted of
"around 20 units composed of between four and eight members each." More
names are named: Michael Calmanovic headed up the team in Irving, Texas,
while Florida was the domain of Hanan Serfaty. Legum Yochai had charge
of the Miami operation. Online Intelligence also notes the Amdocs
connection: it seems these "art students" "cultivated contacts with
Israeli information technology companies based in the US and serving as
regular suppliers to various U.S. federal agencies, such as Amdocs" and
others. The Fox News series is cited, by Online Intelligence and Le
Monde, and the former even provides a convenient map of the Texas
chapter of the "art students" underground apparatus, complete with not
only names, but arrival dates, corporate connections, when and where
they were arrested, and their specific functions in the Israeli
military-intelligence apparatus. How much more evidence do we need
before the editorialists and the pundits start calling government
officials on their lies - and Congress begins an investigation?

"There is a political context," Dasquie said, which involves the current hostilities between the Israelis and the Palestinians. "That explains why the FBI is carrying out a global cover-up of this story."
The addresses of Israeli agents mentioned in the report are very close to former, known residences of the terrorists involved in the Sept. 11 attacks.
Le Monde said more than one-third of the suspected Israeli spies had lived in Florida, where at least 10 of the 19 Arabs alleged to have been involved in the Sept. 11 airplane attacks on New York's World Trade Center and the Pentagon also lived. At least five of the spies resided in Hollywood, Fla., where alleged hijacker Mohammad Atta and four accomplices in the attacks also lived, the paper said.
The DEA draft report established that 12 Israelis had been based in the Florida town of Hollywood, where U.S. authorities reportedly arrested another 12 people "suspected of being tasked with the logistics of preparing the Sept. 11 attacks."
Two Israelis lived in Fort Lauderdale, near Delray Beach, where hijackers in the planes that crashed into the Pentagon and in Pennsylvania resided temporarily, the report added.
"This concordance could be the source of the American view that one of the missions of the Israeli 'students' could have been to track al Qaeda terrorists on territory without informing federal authorities," Le Monde said.
When AFP asked Dasquie if he thought the Israelis were engaged in intelligence gathering or monitoring the activities of the "working level" Arab "terrorists," he said, it is "too early to speculate" and that "a lot of material is undercover."
The newspaper said it had seen a copy of the secret report, and that it had learned that six suspected spies had used portable telephones bought by a former Israeli vice consul in the United States.
"We know there has been an extensive Israeli spy ring operating in the United States during the year before last July, but we don't know its global activities," Dasquie said. "A lot of the story is unknown."
When asked if Intelligence Online would publish the entire document, Dasquie said: "That is the great question." The document contains the names of 120 Israelis, some of whom, he says, may be innocent. Government agents' names and addresses are also included.
Dasquie said Intelligence Online has acquired a great deal of solid evidence, which it intends to publish soon.

The secret story of Mossad and the World Trade Center attack
"These individuals have been described as aggressive," the warning said. "They attempt to engage employees in conversation rather than giving a sales pitch." The group's activities encompassed far more states than the administration would admit.
The task force carrying out the original investigation, it has been learned, included not just DEA investigators but those from the INS, the FBI and the US Air Force investigation unit, due to the broad national scope of the Israeli operation. However, it was the DEA's in-house security unit, the Office of Security Programs, that sparked the probe.
Some of the operatives were already well-known in the Israeli intelligence community, for example: Peer Segalovitz (military registration number 508798) and Aran Ofek (son the two-star Israeli general). Last year, on May 16, 2001, the US Air Force Office of Special Investigation sent a letter to the Justice Department asking for assistance in an "espionage" case against four of the "students": Yaro Ohana, Ronen Kalfon, Zeev Cohen and Naor Topaz.
One of the striking aspects of the document was its suggestion that the ring had infiltrated federal justice department buildings, and computer companies also of Israeli origin, which operate in the U.S. and sell equipment to U.S. government departments.
Intelligence Online has a copy of a memorandum dated March 4, 2002 and signed by Robert Diegelman, assistant attorney general for administration. It was addressed to officials in charge of the justice department's information systems. For security reasons, it called on them to forbid information system access to all non-U.S. citizens and no longer use foreign-supplied computer and communication gear. It referred specifically to an initial warning entitled Department of Justice Order 2640.2D Information Technology Security and sent out on last July 12 which cautioned in vaguer terms against using information technology sold by foreign firms. The July 12 warning confirmed that the DEA's report, completed in June 2001, was being borne in mind at the highest level.

Dunque anche dei militari partecipano all'inchiesta; ma - si noti - non la Cia, che ne è rimasta o stata lasciata fuori. A promuovere l'indagine sono agenzie che, di solito, non si occupano di controspionaggio.L'articolo francese spiega: "La DEA occupa un ruolo centrale in questo caso di controspionaggio, perché è il suo servizio di sicurezza interna, l'Office of Security Programs, che per primo ha scoperto le attività inusuali di giovani immigrati israeliani attorno ai propri agenti". Si tratta dei sedicenti "studenti di arti plastiche", che contattavano agenti e funzionari americani "di diversi ministeri", e li andavano a trovare con la scusa di vendere loro dei dipinti che sostenevano fatti da loro (in realtà Made in China). Il fatto è che gli studenti fermati e interrogati dalla Dea "sono tutti fra i 22 e i 30 anni, ed hanno recentemente completato il loro servizio militare in una unità di intelligence di Tsahal", ossia dell'esercito israeliano. Benché così giovani, si stupisce l'articolo francese, "alcuni di questi agenti possiedono una notorietà nella comunità d'intelligence israeliana". E cita "Peer Segalovitz (immatricolazione militare: 5087989) e Aran Ofek, figlio di un celebre generale a due stelle dell'esercito israeliano". "Gli obiettivi della rete comprendevano alcuni dei siti più "sensibili" degli Stati Uniti, come la Tinker Air Force Base presso Oklahoma City. Per questo, l'Office of Special Investigation dell'US Air Force ha rivolto una domanda di assistenza (datata 16 maggio 2001) al Dipartimento della Giustizia, contro quattro israeliani sospettati di spionaggio: Yaron Ohana, Ronen Kalfon, Zeev Cohen e Naor Topaz. Inoltre, questi studenti di genere particolare erano in rapporti con società israeliane con sedi in Usa, che prestano regolari servizi ad agenzie federali".
Tra queste ditte che lavorano per il governo Usa, l'informativa francese ne cita tre: una si chiama Nice, una Retalix (software) e la terza, come si può prevedere, è la telefonica Amdocs, fomitrice dello strategico servizio di fatturazione per le grandi compagnie telefoniche Usa. "La rete si articolava attorno a una ventina di cellule, composte ciascuna di 4-8 membri. Le attività di ognuna dipendevano da un capo locale, responsabile della pianificazione e del coordinamento". Intelligence Online pubblica anche una mappa - evidentemente allegata al documento della DEA - che mostra la posizione delle cellule nel territorio degli Stati Uniti.

Therefore also of the soldiers they participate in the question; but - itself known - not the Ioc, that is remained of it or been left outside. To promote the inquiry are agencies that, of habit, do not take care of themselves counterespionage. L' French article explains: "The GODDESS occupies a central role in this case of counterespionage, because is its inside service of safety, the office of Security Programs, that for first has uncovered the activity inusuali of youngsters immigrated Israeli around the actual agents". It is discussed of the would-be "plastic students of limbs", that contacted agents and American officials "of different ministries", and went to find them with the excuse of to sell their of the paintings that supported done from them (in reality Made in Bent). It make is that the students stopped and questioned from the Goddess "are all between the 22 and the 30 years, and recently completed their military service in an unity of intelligence of Tsahal", namely of the Israeli army. Although so young, it is astonished the French article, "some of these agents possiedono a fame in the Israeli community of intelligence". And it cites "Peer Segalovitz (military enrolment: 5087989) and Aran Ofek, son of a famous general to two stars of the Israeli army". "The objectives of the net included some of the sites more "sensitive" of the United States, like the Tinker Base Forks Air I press Oklahoma City. For this, the office of Special Investigation of the us Air Forks has I upset a question of assistance (dated 16 May 2001) to the Department of the Justice, against four Israelis suspected of espionage: Yaron Ohana, Ronen Kalfon, Zeev Cohen and Naor Topaz. Besides, these special students of type were in relations with Israeli society with seats in Usa, that lend moderate services to federal agencies". Between these firms that they work for the government Usa, the informative Frenchman cites of it three: an it is called Nice, a Retalix (software) and the third one, how expects, is the telephone Amdocs, fomitrice of the strategic service of invoicing for the large telephone companies Usa. "The net is articulated around around twenty cells, composed each of 4-8 limb. The activity of each depended from a local head, person in charge of the planning and of the coordination". Online Intelligence public also a map - clearly cited to the document of the GODDESS - that show the position of the cells in the territory of the United States.
