существования  государства  Израиль, вот ради  чего все его  ужасы и все его
репрессии, вот ради чего все те десятки или даже сотни тысяч смертей.

     Краткий перевод вступления:
     Хасидские  евреи в  Нью-Йоркских  ешивах  -  одни  из  главных  в  мире
"отмывателей" грязных денег. Они  используют  клоаку  религии  для  сокрытия
своей преступной  деятельности, а  также используют эксклюзивные израильские
иммиграционные  законы  ("закон  о  возвращении")  для того,  чтобы избежать
американского правосудия путем  переезда в Израиль. Один  из таких хасидских
евреев признал, что коль скоро "еврейская община" экономически выигрывает от
преступной   деятельности,   для   еврейских  кругов   (еврейских   властей,
израильских властей) не играет  роли, являются  ли данные  деньги  "отмытыми
деньгами".

     Статья  интересна  тем,  что  демонстрирует  еще  один  пример  древней
проблемы еврейской лояльности в первую очередь своему еврейству, и только во
вторую - странам (и их законам),  гражданами которых они являются. Это также
показывает,  каким  образом  (откуда) берутся  еврейские деньги  и как евреи
получают возможность, совершив уголовные преступления, спокойно скрыться  от
правосудия  благодаря   эксклюзивной  иммиграционной  политике   государства
Израиль, которая позволяет угловникам-евреям избежать правосудия бегством  в
Израиль (и - в большинстве случаев  - с  деньгами!). Правительство США - как
всегда,  связанное еврейским  влиянием и  еврейскими интересами  - ничего не
делает, чтобы добиться их выдачи.

     Просто   невероятно,  как  эти   еврейские  уголовники  получают  право
эксплуатировать Америку, а потом скрываться от американской законности путем
использования   иммиграции,  ее  законов,   какие,   как  утверждают  евреи,
"расистские" в любой другой стране мира, кроме Израиля!

     Hassidic  Jews in New York yeshivas are among  the top money launderers
in the world. They use the cloak of religion to hide their work and they use
Israel's exclusively Jewish  immigration policy  (the  "law  of  return") to
escape  U.S. justice by  relocating to  Israel.  One of  these Hassidic Jews
candidly admitted that as long as  it benefitted "their community" it didn't
matter whether money was laundered.

     The article is interesting  in that demonstrates another example of the
age-old problem of  Jewish loyalty being to "Jews first"  rather  than their
country of residence. It also shows  how can Jews benefit from and get  away
with  crimes due  to Israel's  exclusive  immigration policy,  which  allows
Jewish  criminals  to escape U.S. prosecution  by fleeing to Israel (and  in
most  cases, =with=  the  money). The U.S. government  --  ever  beholden to
Jewish influence and Jewish interest as always -- dare not extradite them.

     It is  amazing  how these Jewish criminals can exploit America and then
escape its  laws by  recourse to an immigration policy which  Jews claim  is
"racist" for every other country but Israel (!)

     New York's 47th  Street : Maariv, September 2, 1994 By Ben Kaspit,  the
New York correspondent

     Rabbi  Yosef Crozet fell because of his big mouth.  "I launder money, a
lot of money," he once told an acquaintance. "Every day I take $300,000 from
47th Street in Manhattan, bring it to the synagogue, give a receipt and then
take  a commission." The man who heard that story from Crozer was,  how sad,
an undercover Jewish agent of the US agency for fighting drugs, DEA.

     A month later, in February 1990, Crozer was arrested by  agents on  his
way  from 47th Street  to  Brooklyn. They found on him  prayer  books,  five
passports  and also $280,000  in  cash in the trunk of his car.  He traveled
that route  every day. He would arrive  at the gold  trading office on  47th
Street in the afternoon,  and  leave a little later,  carrying suitcases and
bags loaded with  cash. From there he drove to the Hessed Ve'Tzadaka ["Mercy
and Charity"] synagogue in Brooklyn which had been turned into a laundry for
millions of dollars, the revenue from drug sales in the New York area.

     That was how Crozer made his living. Assuming that  the commission  for
laundering money  ranged  in  the area  of  2% to  6%,  Rabbi Crozet can  be
presumed  not to have suffered from hunger. The investigators who questioned
him faced a simple task.

     A respectable  and pious  Jew  who never  imagined  that  he  would  be
interrogated, a  son of a highly respected rabbi  who headed a large yeshiva
in city  of  New  Square,  Crozer broke down and  cooperated.  But then  his
lawyer,  Stanley Lupkin, argued  that his client, a pious Jew, had  no  idea
that he was laundering drug money. Crozer, according to his lawyer, believed
that he  was  laundering money  for a Jewish diamond trader  "who trades  in
cash" and  not for Gentile drug traders and was using the situation to  make
some extra money, for his synagogue.

     It seems that this argument had some effect since Crozer was  sentenced
to one year and one day imprisonment.  In exchange for a lenient science, he
supplied his interrogators with  valuable information  which helped them  to
capture a person whom they had been seeking for a long time: Avraham Sharir,
another pious Jew, the owner of  a gold trading office  on  47th Street, who
was really one of the  biggest sharks for laundering drug money  in New York
City. Sharir, an  Israeli Jew aged  about 45,  to whom we will later return,
subsequently confessed  to  having laundered $200 million  for the Colombian
drug cartel of Kali.

     The drug trade is  considered to be the most profitable branch of crime
in the  world. The profit margin ranges in the area  of 200% for cocaine and
1,200% for heroin. The amounts  of money laundered in the trading office are
larger  than the budgets of many small states.  The temptation is great. The
main problem of the Colombian  drug barons who control a significant part of
world drug trade is how to get rid of the money. It is a problem of the rich
but a nagging one. Two major Colombian  drug cartels operate in the US - the
Kali cartel and the Medellin cartel.

     The  killing of the head of the Medellin cartel, Pablo Escovar,  by the
Colombian  authorities in December  1993  greatly weakened this cartel which
had controlled  the drug  trade in  the New York area.  The Kali  people, in
contrast,  hold  a  monopoly over the Los Angeles and Miami area markets. At
present, the Kali people distribute about 80 per cent of the world's cocaine
and a third of the heroin-  The Kali drug cartel makes $25 billion each year
within the US alone. The money must somehow be shipped out of the US without
arousing the attention of the  American authorities. Besides, the cash  must
be given a seal of approval and, one way or another, become legitimized.

     Around  this complex  issue a mega-business has sprung up -  laundering
and smuggling drug money. American customs investigators have found millions
of  dollars  in  containers  supposed  to  have  contained  dried  peas,  in
double-sided gas tanks,  in steel boxes attached  to freight ships. In  1990
they  found $14 million  in cash in a  shipment of cables,  supposed to have
been sent from a Long Island warehouse to Colombia.

     According  to records found  on the site, that  was  shipment  No.  234
(multiplied  by  14  million, calculate  it  yourselves). The same  year, at
Kennedy Airport, in a warehouse, 26  large containers were found  which were
supposed to have contained bull sperm. The latter  was  not  there but there
were $6.5  million.  In May  of this  year American  investigators raided  a
bowling ball  plant in Long Island. They picked up the  balls,  cut them  in
half and found within them $210,000 in used $100 bills.

     Despite their active imaginations, the drug barons find it hard to keep
up. $25 billion is a lot of money and it must fill a lot of space since most
of the money gained in drug  deals comes in bills of $10 to $20. And that is
how  the  match  was made  between  the  drug cartels  and  47th  Street  in
Manhattan.

     This  street is the world center for trading diamonds, gold, jewels and
precious stones. Hundreds of businesses are crowded in there,  between Fifth
and Sixth Avenues. Shops,  businesses, display halls. In the back rooms  and
on the top floors,  far from public access, the action takes  place. That is
where the major traders sit, and that is where the deals are made. Diamonds,
gold  and jewels  pass  from hand  to  hand with a  handshake.  The  frantic
activity  there  offers an ideal cover  for illegal transfers of money.  "In
fact,  even  legitimate business  appears, on 47th Street,  to  be  dark and
mysterious," said a customs official.

     "Merchandise arrives  constantly,  boxes,  suitcases  and  packages are
constantly opened, everything arrives  in armored cars, under heavy security
and a shield of secrecy. Now, go find the black money."

     "The  match  between  the  drug barons and  47th  Street," an  American
customs  investigator told  Afaai-ii,  "is  ideal.  The  gold  and  diamonds
industry  circulates  large  amounts  of  cash.  The  diamond   traders  are
accustomed to transporting large amounts of money in cash, from one state to
another,  efficiently and  without leaving  a trace, Large amounts of  money
pass from hand to hand on 47th Street, without arousing suspicion.

     "A  diamond trader might launder $5 million  every day without arousing
special attention. it is  difficult to monitor  the  deals,  to  locate  the
sources of the  money and  it  is  very difficult  to infiltrate that closed
field, which is based on personal acquaintance and trust."

     Added to it is the fact that in  the course of the past five years, the
diamond industry  on 47th Street has been in a deep  slump,  which  put many
traders into bankruptcy. "A trader like that," said an investigator,  "faces
the choice of  bankruptcy or making easy, quick and relatively  safe  money.
Not everyone is strong enough to withstand the temptation."

     All  of  that  would not  have been of  interest to us if  not  for the
massive  Israeli and Jewish presence  on 47th Street.  "At least  50% of the
diamond  traders  there are Israelis," so  an Israeli diamond merchant,  who
wishes to remain anonymous, told Maariv. "Not a few Israelis also operate in
the field of jewels, precious stones and gold.  All of them came to New York
to make fast money, conquer the market, get their big break. Not all of them
have succeeded, especially  not  recently." But the Jewish  presence on 47th
Street is much greater than that.

     Experts in the field estimate that 75% to 80% of  the active traders on
the street are  Jews. A  large number of them are very pious  Orthodox Jews,
mainly Hassids. There is also a respectable representation of Jews from Iran
and Syria, usually also very pious. One can get along fine in Hebrew on 47th
Street. There  are many more kosher restaurants in the area than in  all  of
Tel Aviv. The place is also the biggest laundry for drug money in the US.

     The  expansion of the phenomenon of laundering drug money  in the US in
general,  and  on 47th  Street in  particular, led to the establishment of a
special American task force  to combat  the phenomenon.  The unit is  called
Eldorado, after the mythical South American city of gold. It is staffed with
200  agents, officials  of the  US customs and  internal  revenue  agencies.
Eldorado, established  in April  1990, investigates the money- laundering in
general. Fifty of its agents dedicate their time just to 47th Street.

     "It is work that  demands tremendous manpower," said Robert  Van Attan,
an  Eldorado officer, "since the money has to  be monitored along the length
and breadth  of  the continent,  sometimes also abroad."  The target of  the
Eldorado agents  is money, and money alone. They  are not interested in drug
imports, drug deals or drug dealers. "We want to put our hands on the money.
To hit their pockets," - say members of the unit.

     The  task  is  difficult. In America there is  no  law  that  prohibits
possessing money. On the other hand, when a large amount of cash is found in
the possession of  a  launderer,  the agents  confiscate the  money. If  the
person  can prove that  the source of the  money was  legitimate, he gets it
back. That does not happen.

     The launderers are experienced. When one of them is caught and  several
million  dollars are  found in his possession, he  willingly hands over  the
money, but asks for a receipt. "The money is not mine. I want you to confirm
that you took it," is  the  common request. Incidentally, their lives depend
on that  receipt. It is not a simple  matter to  trail them. The  eyes of  a
typical launderer are glued to his rear-view mirror.  He makes sudden stops,
moves from one  lane  to another, chooses long and twisted  routes from  one
place to another. Eldorado has an answer.

     The investigators  follow  their  targets  with eight,  ten,  sometimes
twelve vehicles. If necessary they use one or two helicopters. There is also
sophisticated equipment, the wonders of American technology in the fields of
tapping,  surveillance  and  code-breaking.  In the  first two years of  its
operations,  Eldorado  captured $60  million  and arrested  120  launderers.
Compared  to the scope of overall laundering, that is peanuts.  "That is not
the point," say the Eldorado agents. "Obviously, it is impossible, with  the
existing legal restrictions, to put an end to the phenomenon. Our warfare is
psychological."

     Incidentally,   Eldorado    is   not   the    only   agency   combating
money-laundering. The DEA,  the American Drug  Enforcement Agency,  and  the
FBI, also conduct lively activity in that field. Not always is this activity
coordinated.

     In  recent  months  the  Eldorado agents  discovered  a  new center  of
operations. It is called The Cocaine Triangle. Its sides are Colombian  drug
barons,  Israeli-Jewish money  launderers  and Jewish-Russian  mafiosi.  The
Colombians funnel the money, the Israelis launder it, the "Russian"  mafiosi
(who have recently overrun New York in droves) provide  the security and the
muscle. A New  York journalist  recently told Maariv: "The Israeli  Jews are
ataining notoriety in  the  money- laundering market. You need  only look at
the list of arrests and the indictments of the  past  3-4 years, in order to
grasp the enormous scope of Israeli involvement in this field."

     One reason  for  the growing  power  of  the Jews  in the  business  of
laundering drug  money  is the Law of Return  with its easy  possibility  of
escape to  Israel. In May  1993,  five members  of the  Jewish international
laundering  ring, which had worked with the Kali  cartel, were arrested. The
ring  was  exposed following  an FBI "sting" operation,  as part of which it
established  a dummy corporation called Prism,  which served  the  gang  for
laundering money.

     In  the  course of  less than one  year  $22.5  million  were laundered
through the  company. The head of the ring was an Israeli named Zion Ya'akov
Evenheim,  known  as "Zero". Evenheim, who had a dual  Israeli and Colombian
citizenship, stayed  in Kali,  from  where he coordinated  the activity  and
supervised the transfers of money. Most of the ring's  members were arrested
in May 1993. Evenheim was arrested by Interpol in Switzerland and extradited
to the US. He is cooperating with the FBI.

     Additional Israeli detainees: Raymond Shoshana,  38, Daniella Levi, 30,
Binyamin Hazon, Meir Ochayon,  33, Alex  Ajami,  34. Many other suspects, to
whom we will later return, escaped to  Israel, and there are difficulties in
extraditing them to the US.

     In  the  course  of the investigation, FBI agents recorded hundreds  of
hours of conversations in Hebrew among the Israeli suspects. For the purpose
of  translating  the  material, they employed, among others, Neil Elefant, a
Jewish resident of New Jersey  who had lived in Israel for some time and who
spoke fluent Hebrew.

     Elefant translated and  translated, until  one day in May 1992  he  was
amazed to  discover among  the  speakers a  friend, Jack  Zbeida,  a  Jewish
antiques  dealer  from  Brooklyn,  Elefant  was in  a difficult  dilemma. He
approached his rabbi, Elazar Teitz, who told him that his religious duty was
to  warn  Zbeida. Elefant then secretly met Zbeida  and told him that he was
targeted  by the FBI. Alex Ajami, an Israeli Jew who was one of the heads of
the  gang, was also present. Zbeida and Ajami hurried to the FBI offering to
cooperate, turning in Elefant, who was arrested and charged with interfering
with legal procedures.

     He argued that one of  the reasons for his  decision to warn Zbeida was
the zealousness, almost  approaching anti-Semitism, which he found among the
FBI  agents trying to  involve  the State of Israel in  drug  affairs. Judge
Kevin Duffy  sentenced Elefant  to I8 months' imprisonment. In  the meantime
the FBI was forced to arrest hurriedly all those involved in the affair.

     In spite  of their  hurry, many  Israeli Jews involved  fled to Israel.
Some few of the tens of Israeli and American Jews who fled to Israel on this
occasion are: Raymond Shosliana, Adi Tal, David Va'anunu, his nephew Yisliai
Vanunu, Ya'akov Cohen. Most of them  came out  of the  affair with a lot  of
money which they also took to Israel.

     The story of Adi Tal  is worthy  of elaboration.  He is  an  impressive
youth, handsome,  with a  good record in  the army, a son of a  fine Israeli
family, formerly a security guard at El Al. All that did not hinder Tal from
becoming  involved  in  laundering drug money  in  1988. In March  1988  the
American authorities arrested I I members  of the laundering ring, including
Tal and his good friend Nir Goldstein, also an Israeli.

     The  investigators  at the  time said  that  Tal  and  his  friends had
operated cautiously, used aliases and codes and lived in constant fear. They
would receive  large amounts  of  money from  Colombian couriers, divide the
money into sums of $10,000 (any amount over 10,000 dollars that is deposited
in  an  American bank requires  a  report),  deposit the  sums in banks  and
convert  them  into  travelers'   checks  which   they  sent,  by  means  of
international couriers, to a dummy corporation in  Panama.  The most popular
code  which Tal's  gang  used  was  taken  from the diamond  industry.  When
information was transmitted about the transfer of  a diamond of 30.4 carats,
it meant the sum of $30,400. Tal worked for Jose Satro, the  money launderer
of the Kali cartel. The Colombians constantly pressured him  to increase the
scope of the laundering.

     Tal was afraid. "He lived in constant fear, his bags were always packed
and he was prepared to flee at any minute to Israel," one investigator said.

     An important member of Tal's laundering ring was Rabbi Shalom Leviatan,
a Lubavitch Hassid, head of their branch  in Seattle. It is assumed that all
the considerable political power of these Hassids  and of  their rebbe (then
alive) was exerted in favor of that laundering ring.

     "My  intentions were  good,"  Leviatan said  after he  was captured. "A
person learns from experience," he added.  According to him, he did not know
that he  was laundering drug money a
