Another Mossad and Moving Companies Connection?
By
Peter Lewis The disclosure by Assistant U.S. Attorney Kathryn Warma came at a detention hearing for Erik and Tanya Deri, the Kirkland couple arrested earlier this week and charged as leaders in a fraud and extortion conspiracy. The recovery of those items is "clear evidence corroborating the allegations," Warma told U.S. Magistrate Judge Ricardo Martinez. In a complaint filed Tuesday, the government charged the Deris and four others. One of them, Joe Naham, also known as Yosi Derei, and thought to be Israeli, remains a fugitive. Doing business as Nationwide Moving Systems since May 2002, the defendants offered low estimates, then inflated the price and withheld delivery of customers' belongings until they paid the higher price, the government charged. In court papers, the government credited a March article in The Seattle Times with sparking the investigation. Citing the fact that Erik Deri, 32, is an Israeli national, that he worked in the U.S. illegally after entering the country several years ago and that he's apparently been involved in criminal activity since moving to Washington state last year, Martinez ordered him detained. [...] Warma asserted that both Deris have a history of drug abuse, and that during the raid Thursday when agents recovered the porcelain eggs and figurines, they also found marijuana. She said additional items taken from customers may turn up when agents finish an inventory of what they seized. [...] The government also charged that Erik Deri instructed all Nationwide drivers to remove the fuse that powered the odometer of rental trucks in order to minimize the bill due the company. Further, if a driver forgot to do to so, Deri would make the driver pay for the mileage, according to the charges. Erik Deri is charged in five counts and Tanya Deri in three, including conspiracy to commit extortion for both defendants. Each count of fraud and extortion carries a maximum penalty of 20 years in prison and a fine of $250,000. In addition, Erik Deri faces possible deportation if convicted. [...] Comment: Notice that the article is covered by a consumers' affairs reporter. Rather interesting connections are being overlooked, perhaps deliberately? Laura's articles Mossad and Moving Companies: Masterminds of Global Terrorism?, Ross Institute: COINTELPRO or Agents of MOSSAD? helps put these links into perspective. The Departments of Disinformation By
MILT BEARDEN co-author with James Risen of The Main Enemy: The
Inside Story of The New York Times There is agreement on what the world's oldest profession is. But there's uncertainty over the second oldest. It could be spycraft. In the scriptures, remember, before Joshua fought the battle of Jericho, he spied out the countryside. But it is the third oldest profession — the business of misdirecting and fleecing the second — that deserves critical attention today. Bogus intelligence, a nuisance to spies and policymakers alike, has taken on grave importance since intelligence now weighs so heavily on why and when America will go to war. Fabricated intelligence comes from all directions today. There are the con artists out for a quick buck. These peddlers know Washington's needs, and cook information to order. Intelligence from such fabrication mills is bothersome, but not usually harmful. The state-sponsored intelligence forgers, operating as part of a nation's security apparatus, are more dangerous and have the most lasting impact. Black operations always begin with a deep understanding of the weaknesses, prejudices and predispositions of the target. The goals of disinformation are broad — anything from embarrassing a foreign government to finessing a sovereign country into doing what you want. Among the most gifted at this disinformation have been the Russians (before and after the Soviet interlude), the British, the Chinese, the Americans (a little later in the game) and the Israelis.[...] Palestinian, Israeli Premiers Hold Summit By
MARK LAVIE JERUSALEM (AP)--The Palestinian Authority outlawed incitement to violence and Israel hinted at a new flexibility over the release of prisoners during a prime ministers' summit just days before the leaders travel to Washington to discuss a peace plan. Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon and Palestinian premier Mahmoud Abbas met for two hours Sunday at Sharon's official residence. The meeting produced few concrete results but both sides showed a willingness to compromise. [...] Israel acknowledged that terror attacks have eased since the main Palestinian groups declared a cease-fire on June 29. But Raanan Gissin, a Sharon aide, said it was too early to make significant gestures toward the Palestinians, like removing roadblocks that have crippled Palestinian life for nearly three years. "We want to be very cautious in the steps that we make,'' he told the Associated Press, complaining that since the truce, Palestinian militant groups have been rearming and regrouping. He warned that "the whole process (could) be disrupted by one renegade terrorist act.'' [...] "Do you have blood on your hands?" Joe
Quinn I watched the BBC main evening news yesterday of Blair's press conference in Japan on the death of Dr. Kelly. Blair fielded a number of questions from reporters on the alleged suicide of the former government arms advisor. He seemed to be handling the situation quite well, but it was obvious that he was completely unprepared for what was to be the final question of the briefing. "Mr. Blair" the reporter asked "do you have blood on your hands?". The only way to describe the effect on Blair was that his face crumpled, it was as though something collapsed inside him. He stood silent and motionless for a few seconds and then abruptly called the session to a close, excusing himself without answering the question. It seemed as if the pressure of lying continually and on such a massive scale, momentarily got a little too much for Tony, and he cracked. Not to worry though, he will surely be patched up and bristling again for his next outing.

[...] Comment: One by one, the dominoes will fall... by Mark Revington It's an unassuming place from the street, a quiet backwater in a Wellington suburb. A little unkempt, the house of someone unconcerned with external appearances. The lawn doesn't appear to have met a mower that it couldn't tame and the paint is cracked and dry. But then Alastair Thompson has other things on his mind, notably the story he calls "bigger than Watergate". It broke a couple of weeks ago on Thompson's Scoop website with this introduction: "IMPORTANT NOTE: Publication of this story marks a watershed in American political history. It is offered freely for publication in full or part on any and all Internet forums, blogs and noticeboards. All other media are also encouraged to utilise material. Readers are encouraged to forward this to friends and acquaintances in the United States and elsewhere." Cue thunder, lightning, ominous roll of drums. What warranted this kind of build-up? An apparent exposé of a huge security flaw in the United States voting system, primarily uncovered by a US writer named Bev Harris, author of a soon-to-be published book called Black Box Voting: Ballot-Tampering in the 21st Century and someone with whom Thompson has been working closely in recent months.

Jeff Danziger In 1969, it took between 10 and 18 hours to get to Vietnam on the Flying Tiger contract planes. A long, numbing flight to a war with no liquor, not even a beer. [...] We walked down the stairs from the plane into the boil of the Saigon humidity, weighted by duffle bags and weapons, swaddled in fatigues and canvas boots. This was going to be awful. But the one thing that kept us mildly sane was the knowledge that it would last only a year. That was guaranteed. You could, you told yourself, put up with anything for a year. Three months later, especially in combat units, you weren't so sure. Even so, it was the knowledge that every day brought you closer to deliverance from the heat and the noise and the violence and the death that kept most of us from losing it. This week, the Pentagon informed the 3rd Infantry Division troops in Iraq that they would not be going home on the dates previously promised.

There were always more infantrymen and clerk-typists coming along. But now, of course, there aren't.

Bill Gertz The FBI is investigating the origin of forged documents indicating that Iraq was seeking uranium from Niger, and one candidate for the forgeries is an Iraqi opposition group, U.S. officials said. [...] President Bush chastised senior advisers, including National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice and outgoing press spokesman Ari Fleischer, about the uranium intelligence flap and the White House's handling of it several times during the recent trip to Africa. Spokesmen at the time initially said the White House was provided with bad intelligence from the CIA, only to reverse course a day later and claim the intelligence may still be valid although it should not have been included in a presidential speech. "The president wanted the matter settled," one official said of Mr. Bush's harsh words for his advisers. Although it received intelligence from the documents earlier, the CIA did not obtain copies of the forged documents until February 2003 — months after the Italians first obtained them and after the president's State of the Union address. A U.S. official said the Italians initially only described the documents to the CIA. Then the State Department obtained a set from a journalist and that led to an investigative trip to Niger by former U.S. Ambassador Joseph Wilson. Mr. Wilson said Niger's government told him that the country would not sell uranium to Iraq, but also informed him that Iraqis were in the country discussing unspecified commercial transactions, which could have included uranium-ore purchases, the U.S. official said. CIA Director George J. Tenet testified before a closed hearing of the Senate Intelligence Committee on Wednesday to explain how the tainted intelligence ended up in a major U.S. intelligence-community report and the president's State of the Union speech. An official said the documents included a letter about the purchase of some 500 tons of uranium ore, supposedly signed by Niger's president, Mamadou Tandja. The signature was found to have been faked. Another document was described as an October 2000 Niger military document signed by a former foreign minister of Niger. Besides Iraqi opposition, investigators also say the documents could have been produced by criminals, con men, or a foreign intelligence service. [...] Comment: This is all very interesting, especially considering the following: The Yellowcake Blame Game By
JASON LEOPOLD When George Tenet, the director of the CIA, testified before the Senate Intelligence Committee last week about dubious intelligence data on the Iraqi threat that made it into President Bush's State of the Union address in January, he said an ad-hoc committee called the Office of Special Plans, set up by Deputy Secretary of Defense Paul Wolfowitz, Assistant Secretary of Defense for Policy Douglas Feith, and other high-profile hawks, rewrote the intelligence information on Iraq that the CIA gathered and gave it to White House officials to help Bush build a case for war, according to three Senators on the intelligence committee. Tenet told the Intelligence Committee that his own spies at the CIA determined that much of the intelligence information they collected on Iraq could not prove that the country was an imminent threat nor could they find any concrete evidence that Iraq was stockpiling a cache of chemical and biological weapons.

The president "is not a fact checker" and the butler did it Quote of the day: "White House officials said the document [the main prewar intelligence summary on Iraq's weapons program partly declassified Friday] was one of those drawn on by speechwriters as they put together the State of the Union address.

"We hid the bottle in the trunk of the car when we crossed the Polish border because we were afraid that customs officers would think we were Nazi sympathisers," he added. The supermarket also sold bottles graced with the effigy of Italy's wartime dictator Benito Mussolini, the tourists said.
