It's pretty common practice for any country to conduct this type of activity, even against allies. We do it to Britain, Israel, France, Germany, Japan, Australia and I am certain many others, and the favor is no doubt returned on us.
Just because nations are considered allies does not mean there are things they don't share with us either commercially or governmentally that we don't want a peice of, and vice versa. |

Whoa! ya know, I somehow gleaned from you all that I mispelled the name of our unfaltering allies. I guess I've been doing it for years too, never even noticed till now. Sounds too much like Azreal.

Quoted: They will sell what they learn to the Chinese. Yes, for hard currency they will sell advanced military equipment and technology to an aggressive country like China - not in their region and an immediate threat to them, even if they are a threat to their allies and other democracies. We have had to raise this issue with them in the past. Here's the link you were looking for ---> [url]www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,40679,00.html[/url] I wish these guys would understand that what they are doing is wrong. No nation has ever done as much for them, and yet they continue to escalate their espionage against us. And no, not all countries are equally guilty of doing this, and certainly not at their level. I hope the part about knowing in advance is not true. Wouldn't surprise me if some of our know-how ends up coming back to us on a chinese missile some day, via Tel Aviv... |

It is common knowledge that Isreal is spying and has spied on us in the past.
It may also be true that we spy on our allies too. However, the thing about the Isreal spying on us really pisses me off because we give them billions of dollars in aid each year. Essentially, that means they use some of our own money to spy on us. Nice, huh? |

The real significance of this is the strong speculation that not only were Israeli operatives in the U.S. spying on Arab groups and spying on us in a big way, but something much worse.
The U.S. has detained dozens of Israelis, and there's talk that they may have been aware of the Sept.11 plans prior to the 11th, and said nothing to us. If this is true, I hope the next dozen Daisy Cutters are aimed at Tel Aviv. We do FAR to much for them to put up with something as f*cked up as that. I'd immediately place them as an enemy of the state if there's any truth to this. |

The IDF was on a very tight shoe-string budget not allowing it to buy Israeli made firearms, especially with large quantities of Galil SAR still available, and since the U.S. Foreign Military Support (FMS) money to Israeli has to be spent back in the U.S. using American dollars.

There are people who beleve the Jews are behind everything bad that happens to the US. Doesnt make it so. You do comprehend that we listen to every phone call and record every e-mail sent by all Israelis, and all Saudis, Frenchmen, Britans... we spy on everyone. Including our own citizens. |

The report that I saw indicated that the Izzy's were actuallly spying on Arabs who were in this country. Hmmmm, big threat to us there. The reason we are honked is that we think their methods are better than ours and they may have withheld information that would have been useful to us.

Just take a look at the past election map.
Red areas vs Blue areas. The Large population centers in the U.S. are basically owned by leftist Democrat Communists. We probably should be spying on them too! Its not like the Clintonista's had the best intentions toward Israel. [-!-] If I was Israel, I would be spying on the U.S. too, especially McCain, Schumer, Hilly, Kennedy, you get the picture. |

No, try specualtion from our State Department, enough that it has been mentioned in brief to the press. Isreal would have something to gain by an all out war on terrorism, wouldn't you say? Quoted: You do comprehend that we listen to every phone call and record every e-mail sent by all Israelis, and all Saudis, Frenchmen, Britans... we spy on everyone. Including our own citizens. Yeah, I figured that riddle out too. My point has nothing to do with that, and EVERYTHING to do with the possibility that the Israelis MAY have known about the largest terrorist action in the history of the world, aimed at America, and CHOSE to say nothing. Fuckin' nitwit. |

I'm surprised and shocked that someone would accuse Israel of such a thing. They obviously have no proof, and this is all just an Anti-semitic conspiracy to defame our greatest allly.
Also, the guy they arrested in LA with explosives and a plan to blow up a mosque was probably not an Israeli but a Palestinian intent on making it look like the work af an Israeli.[rolleyes] |

How anyone could blame Israel for spying on us is silly.
After the last eight years of Klintong selling or giving away our secrets to the Chinese, and since we are the "Character doesn't really matter people," I hope and pray Israel was was spying on/for us, they were doing (((((OUR)))))) job, because Klintong and the Demorats sure the hell weren't. If it weren't for Israel spying, eight years of intelligence would have been lost. |

The Israelis can do something that you blonde haired blue eyed aryans can't, many speak arabic and can pass themselves off as arabs, they have shared intel with us for decades, we on the other hand do not even share intel with ourselves, our biggest problem is the infighting in the intel community, CIA, NSA, FBIetc are all fighting for the budget amongst each other.
And we sell military hardware to China, Iran, Iraq and who ever suits us...... |

The apologists seem to come out of the woodwork and trot out the same old tired lines. I thought I'd beat them to the punch. It was sarcasm, in case your detector is broken or out of calibration.
