Israeli ownership of European and US security companies

Revelations about Israeli involvement in terror attacks

It's one of those times when an innocuous comment in an unrelated news report triggers a revelation.
In the article at  http://afrocubaweb.com/news/israelispying.htm there is the following paragraph:

"To make the situation worse, a private security company called ICTS, owned by an Israeli, Ezra Harel, and registered in the Netherlands, was employed at Charles de Gaulle airport to screen passengers boarding US planes. Most of its personnel are ex-Shin Bet officers. The company covers security at Boston's Logan airport, where the American Airlines plane came down after flight attendants and passengers overpowered Reid."
The point of the article was that ICTS knew shoe bomber Richard Reid was dangerous, but allowed him on board a flight from Tel Aviv to Paris. Maybe they did and maybe they didn't. But the idea that an Israeli owned company had inside access to the airport used to launch an abortive terror attack brought to mind the strange message Odigo Systems, another Israeli owned company with offices near the World Trade Towers, received that warned of the impending attacks before the hijacked planes had even left the ground.

So, I went back to another story that had surfaced briefly, reported at www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=26626 about how at least one hijacker had smuggled a GUN aboard one of the hijacked planes. Even prior to 9-11, getting a gun on board a passenger plane represented a serious lapse of security. I wondered why this story of a gun was being concealed behind talk of box cutters and screwdrivers.

Then I went back to the first article and its mention that ICTS handled security at Logan International Airport, from which two of the 9-11 hijacked planes had departed.

Sure enough, a visit to ICTS' own web site at  http://www.icts-int.com/ confirms that ICTS is in fact an Israeli owned company, and that it sells services to every airport from which the hijacked planes operated, including security, sometimes through wholly owned subsidiaries like Huntleigh USA Corporation.

It has been suggested that the incredible feat of hijacking four aircraft without a single arrest at the gate would require the resources of a nation-state. This is even more true with the revelation that at least one gun had managed to be aboard a hijacked plane. One company had automatic inside access to all of the airports from which hijacked planes departed on 9-11, and to the airports used by Richard Reid, the shoe bomber. An Israeli company. One that Mossad agents could easily find employment with without the management knowing who they were or what their purpose really was.

But one thing is clear. By virtue of the Odigo warning, someone knew enough about the planned attacks to warn Odigo before the planes had even departed the airport gates, yet they did not call the Israeli security company at the airports which could have stopped the flights from leaving.

Think about that one for a while.

Hours before the House version of the first Patriot Act went to a vote, "technical corrections" were inserted into the body of the legislation whereby foreign security companies such as ICTS-International would be immune from lawsuits related to the events of 9/11. Talk about not being available for deposition! This "Patriot" act legislative sleight of hand occurred before the inception of the 9/11 Commission when Fearless Leader George W. Bush was still resisting the very IDEA of an investigation into 9/11. Hence, in the face of an institutional cover-up, citizens were denied the possibility of a discovery process which is normally afforded to litigants. Without such discovery process, ICTS-International would never be compelled by a court of law to give testimony and show evidence related to the missing airport video surveillance tapes of 9/11 or any other aspect of security measures in place on 9/11. [rense.com]

"Evidence linking these Israelis to 9/11 is classified. I cannot tell you about evidence that has been gathered. It's classified information."
US official quoted in Carl Cameron's Fox News report on the Israeli spy ring.

"Investigators within the DEA, INS and FBI have all told Fox News that to pursue or even suggest Israeli spying ... is considered career suicide."
Carl Cameron, as quoted in The Spies Who Came In From The Art Sale

"While I agree with you, if I say anything about US geopolitical interests with Israel, I might as well clean off my desk."
Unnamed reporter as quoted in American Media Censorship and Israel

The Jews..............again

Well what do your know, 911 was the Jews. We can always relay on somebody here to tell us the latest Jewish revelation, this site is getting more antisemitic every day.

Throw the Jews down the well


Wait for the trolls to turn up.

"Well what do your know, 911 was the Jews. We can always relay on somebody here to tell us the latest Jewish revelation, this site is getting more antisemitic every day."

Ignore.

So the security companies who handled the contracts at the airports where these 'terrorist' attacks came from were all Israeli eh!

Kind of makes sense, Zionism IS terrorism.

One of the house antisemites here, 'Knot Eyed Jaguar' can always be relied upon to be involved where stories about Jews are posted. For example he/she this week in response to a report about a Jewish school receiving hate mail told us,

"It's likely they sent these letters and emails themselves, Jews can be tricky like that."



He/she is also a military expert (well when it comes to Israel anyway), the people behind the violent suppression of the Syrian people are in fact Israel, he told us that,

"The city of Homs was not and is not being shelled by Syrian troops, the attacks are from Israel "




There is also a wide ranging knowledge of the media which we are told is,

" entirely Jewish owned or controlled"



Other gems have been::
Colonel Gaddafi alive and well, captured by Israel, living in Zimbabwe
Osama Bin Laden, still alive being held by the Americans although he was caught by the Israelis

Ignore ?

Well I suppose it would be nice to ignore the repeated stories about Jews that make up such a large percentage of the news-wire these days but regretfully the quantity of them makes that somewhat difficult. The attempts by some here to link Israel and / or Jews with every tragedy, terrorist attack or event on the planet really does reach the level of ludicrous.

This story is an example of what journalists call "unconnected consequences". An equivalent story would be,

"Nearly all mobile phones contain Israeli technology so therefore Israel is listening to my phone calls"


The reason that Israeli companies are heavily involved in Airport Security is the same reason the coffee business has a lot of Brazilians in it, they are both industries that are big in their respective countries.

Throw the Jews down the well


Mobile phones

30.03.2012 15:23

It is interesting that the poster above (almost certainly paid by Israel to do this work) makes mention of mobile phones. There is considerable evidence that Jewish owned companies in the US, UK and France make use of Israeli supplied spy technology to win contracts however with the Western media being almost entirely owned or controlled by Jews this information is suppressed.

The pernicious cancer that is Judaism needs to be cut out of Western life, the Middle East and the entire planet.

What happened to Indymedia?

Seems like there are more individualists, right-libertarians and fascists on here than social anarchists these days

Did ... ?

Did any one of those hasbara warriors who turn up here and everywhere else their megaphone dictates stop to read and ingest the actual words reported above?

They inform the reader of the existence of certain evidence and circumstances - all verified and verifiable - pertaining to israeli companies and individuals that are linked with a very large criminal conspiracy that resulted in the largest loss of life in american civil affairs and the subsequent military events that resulted in even more american deaths and many many more deaths world wide - including israeli victims.

At what point do you turn off your brain and begin to think that a) all jews are being blamed and b) that all jews must be protected and defended vigorously at the expense of gtting to the heart of the truth?

Let me tell you, it is not appreciated at all when you act so brazenly arrogant and constitutes a grave insult when you claim that we can not investigate crimes committed against us, potentially by israelis without the same old racial slurs and ancient libels immediately surfacing.

Let me also tell you, that you will not put us from delivering the truth to ourselves by these theatrics and diversions.

To the reader, please re read the above article slowly and methodically and ponder therein ...
