Ten Explosive U.S. Government
Secrets about Israel
Absent greater transparency, Americans should assume the worst
By Grant F. Smith
October 24, 2013 "Information Clearing House - "IRmep" - - In 1968
Director of Central Intelligence Richard Helms wrote urgently to Attorney
General Ramsey Clark and President Lyndon B. Johnson that some highly
enriched uranium fueling Israel's Dimona nuclear reactor was stolen from
America. LBJ reportedly uttered, "Don't tell anyone else, even [Secretary of
State] Dean Rusk and [Defense Secretary] Robert McNamara." The FBI
immediately launched a deep investigation into the inexplicably heavy losses
at theNuclear Materials and Equipment CorporationNUMEC inPennsylvania and the highly suspicious activities and Israeli connections of
the Americans running it. The CIA was tasked to find out what was going on
in Israel, and compiled thousands of documents about the incident. (PDF)
Although CIA officials in a position to know unofficially went on record
claiming a diversion had occurred, for decades the CIA has thwarted
declassification and release of the LBJ memos. On October 18, 2013 the
only appeals panel with the power to overrule the CIAthe Interagency
Security Classification Appeals Panel ISCAPsent notification that
Americans are not yet ready to know the contents of the memos (ISCAP
decision PDF). This denial of public release of decades-old secretsconcerning U.S.-Israel relations is far from unique. Although the Obama
administration promised unprecedented transparency, it has emasculated the
public's ability to give informed consent on a wide range of key foreign
policy issues. A review of ten particularly toxic U.S. secrets about Israel
suggests stakeholders should start assuming the worst but most logical
explanation.

In 2006 former Secretary of Defense
Donald Rumsfeld famously told
reporters at an Iraq war briefing
"There are known knowns. These
are things we know that we know.There are known unknowns. That is
to say, there are things that we know
we don't know. But there are also
unknown unknowns. There are
things we don't know we don't
know." Bush administration secrecy
and Rumsfeld's pithy quotes failed to
quell gradual public awareness that
the ill-fated invasion was launched
on purposely fabricated pretexts.
And yet the Iraq debacle could have been avoided if Americans had been
better informed over time how government truly functions through greater
access to the fourth category left unmentioned by Rumsfeld: "unknown
knowns."
"Unknown knowns" are the paradigm-shifting bits of information known
only by a select few in government but kept from their fellow American
citizens because they would reveal indefensible, secret policies and
institution-level corruption that favor a special interest. By locking
"unknown knowns" under heavy guard in document archives, covering them
in secrecy classification stamps and making an example out of
whistleblowers who release them without authorization, busy bureaucrats
with the highest security clearances maintain a vast and growing trove of
"unknown knowns." Historians and watchdog organizations are continually
thwarted in their mandate to contextualize and educate the public about
relevant past events that could deeply inform the governedand ultimately
improve governance. Senator Carl Schurz said, "My country right or wrong,
if right, to be kept right, and if wrong, to be set right." "Unknown knowns"
obliterate the public's ability to execute the latter two-thirds of that sageadvice.
Even the passage of time does not guarantee "unknown knowns" ever
become "known knowns." Under current government records preservation
guidelinesparticularly for information that researchers are not actively
seeking to declassifysome "unknown knowns" quietly become "unknown

3/18
unknowns" as they decay, are physically destroyed, erased or "lost." Many
knowledgeable former officials take their secrets to the grave. As a product
of the ill-gotten powerand influence of the Israel lobby, the pile of
"unknown knowns" about U.S.-Israel policy is particularly large. Curious
Americans who rightfully question official narratives about the U.S.-Israel"special relationship" have often requested "unknown knowns" under the
Freedom of Information Act. Former government insiders who know
firsthand about explosive secrets often seek their public release to alert others
using the Mandatory Declassification Review, even requesting documents by
name, subject, location, author and date. After such "unknown knowns" (like
the LBJ memos) are unsuccessfully sought for decades by multiple
researchers, well-warranted suspicions arise about the reasons behind the
impermeable government wall of refusal. The following ten US-Israel policy
"unknown knowns" suggest the Israel lobby's ongoing corrupt power is the
only possible explanation for why they are still secret.
1. Henry Morgenthau
Jr's Israel policy is the
stuff of legend in
accounts about the
birth of Israel. Some
researchers claim that
FDR's former Treasury
Secretarywas present
at the original 1945
meeting of American
Zionists with Jewish
Agency executive
director David Ben-Gurion to set up the massive Haganah smuggling
network to steal, illegally buy and smuggle surplus WWII arms from the U.S.
to Jewish fighters in Palestine. (report PDF) This was the first major
broadly organized Israel lobby challenge to U.S. sovereignty. It successfully
overrode American policy enshrined in neutrality and arms export laws.
Others claim Morgenthau was also instrumental in the illicit financingIsrael's clandestine nuclear weapons program in direct opposition to policy
set by American presidents.
The FBI's dusty 10,000 page file on Morgenthau, numbered 105-HQ-188123
(the 105 code signifies "foreign counterintelligence") including intercepts to
Morgenthau from Israel, could finally clear up many of these allegations,

3. Israeli theft of nuclear
material from NUMEC. In
2013, the CIA continues to
resist release of thousands of
files about the NUMECdiversion by referring to CIA
Deputy Director for Operations
John H. Stein's secret decision
in 1979 (2013 FOIA denial PDF). Stein claimed that release of even a few of
CIA's closely-held filesespecially if they were compared with Science
Advisor of the Interior Commission Henry Meyer'sblunt allegations (PDF)
to Congressman Morris Udall in 1979 that NUMEC was an Israeli smuggling
frontwas impossible "because of the need to have a coordinated Executive
Branch position and our desire to protect a sensitive and valuable liaison
equity." In plain English, that appears to mean Americans still cannot have
official CIA confirmation of the uranium theft because the U.S. president
would have to drop the ongoing nonsense of "strategic ambiguity" and forego
intelligence Israel is funneling to America.
4. FBI files of Israeli (but not
Russian) spies Russia's dashing
red-headed spy, Anna Chapman,
was arrested in 2010 and sent
packing back Russia. Any
interested American can now watch
Chapman's moves in surveillance
videos and read the FBI
counterintelligence files. Not so
with most of Israel's top spies who
targeted American economic,
nuclear and national defense infrastructure. America is still crawling with
Israeli spies (our "constant companion" according to intelligence expert Jeff
Stein). The 2010 revelations of nuclear equipment smuggling from Telogy
(prohibited export smuggling PDF) in California and Stewart Nozette's 1998-2008 Israel Aerospace Industries-funded penetrations of classified U.S.
information storehouses around Washington reveal that while Israeli spying
has never stopped, secret prosecution strategies now emphasize quietly
rolling up Israeli operations via industry regulators, fines and penalties or
isolating and entrapping American spies on lesser charges but steering

around their Israeli handlers.
Unlike its treatment of information requests about Russian spies, the FBI and
Justice Department have denied every individual FOIA request for the files
of major Israeli spies. Access to Rafael Eitan's many harmful exploitsagainst U.S. targets are banned from release unless Eitan personally waives
his privacy rights (FOIA denial). The FBI claimed it can no longer find files
about deceased nuclear espionage mastermind Avraham Hermoni, even
though his name appears across many previously released NUMEC files
(FOIA denial PDF). Flooding from Hurricane Sandy is the excuse the FBI
gives for not being able to find files on spy-for-Israel Ben Ami-Kadish
(Flood FOIA denial PDF). One might argue it is merely a series of
unfortunate events that keeps Israeli spy files out of public hands, except that
the Justice Department has now issued a blanket ban on declassifying any
files about the FBI's decades-long counterintelligence tango with Israel's
Mossad. (Justice Department blanket denial PDF).
The results of the Justice Department's kid-glove approach to Israel
propagates into mandatory counterintelligence reports to Congress.
Although Israel unambiguously ranked as a top economic and national
defense intelligence threat in past
assessments of agencies like the
Office of National
Counterintelligence Executive,
because criminal prosecution
strategies toward Israel (through not
Iran, Russia or China) have been
undermined from within, Israel has
disappeared from the most current
reports.
5. Jonathan J. Pollard's most heinous crime. Israel's only American spy
ever to do serious time in jaildespite the best efforts of his many American
and Israeli supporters to spring himonce confidently claimed before he was
convicted that "...it was the established policy of the Department of Justice
not to prosecute U.S. citizens for espionage activities on behalf of Israel."
Many believe it was only Defense Secretary Casper Weinberger's classified
briefing to sentencing Judge Aubry Robinson that made Pollard the near sole
exception to that curious rule.
Some Pentagon insiders and national security reporters believe Pollard's

sentence was so harsh because Israel used stolen U.S. intelligence as "trade
goods" with the Soviet Union to increase Russian migrs to Israel. As
Pollard's sentence draws to a close, few know exactly what Weinberger told
Robinson that caused him to deliver a life sentence. The recent partial
releases of a CIA damage assessment and a DIA video about Pollard shedlittle light.
In 2010, the Department of Defense disclaimed all ownership of the still-
classified "Weinberger declaration" passing the FOIA ball to the Justice
Department's Criminal Division (FOIA transfer PDF). In a novel approach,
the Executive Office of US Attorneys now claims that it cannot find its own
copy but that FOIA does not require EOUSA FOIA officers to travel two
blocks to the DC District Court to retrieve a sealed copy of the memorandumfor review (FOIA denial PDF) or even ask DOD for a copy. The National
Archives and Records Administration Office of Government Information
Services OGIS agrees that there is no "duty for agencies to retrieve records
that are not physically present in their own files." Although the 2008 case of
Ben-Ami Kadish proves the Pollard espionage ring was much larger than was
publicly disclosed in the late 1980s, the FBI has also not allowed release of
its Jonathan Pollard investigation files (FOIA denial PDF) for overdue public
review of how the investigation might havelike many othersbeen short-
circuited by the Department of Justice because it involved Israel.
6. Wiretap of AIPAC
pushing for a US war
on Iran. When AIPAC
executives Keith
Weissman and Steven
J. Rosen dialed up
Washington Post
reporter Glenn Kessler
in 2004, they were
determined to leverage
purloined classified
U.S. national defense
information into a story
that Iran was engaged in "total war" against the US in Iraq. FBI special
agents played audio intercepts of their pitch to AIPAC's legal counsel and
AIPAC promptly fired the pair to distance itself from activities it had long

supported. Rosen and Weisman were later indicted under the Espionage Act,
although the case was later quashed under an intense Israel lobby pressure
campaign shortly after President Obama entered office.
What exactly did AIPAC's two officials tell the Washington Post in itsunrelenting drive to gin up a U.S. war with Iran? A decade later, the U.S.
Department of Justice doesn't believe the American public is entitled to hear
a tape long ago played to AIPAC's lawyer Nathan Lewin, even as AIPAC
continues to agitate for more wars. (MDR denial PDF)
7. Niger uranium forgery underwriters.
Although Ike may or may not have worried much
about the implications of Operation Susannah,
the Senate Foreign Relations Committee certainly
did. A secret memo touched off years of Senateand Justice Department investigations into Israel
lobbying over fears that American operatives
might engage in other overseas clandestine
provocations aimed at duping the U.S. into ill-
advised conflicts that would benefit Israel (the
short memo references the Lavon affair twice).
The Iraq war proves those fears were well-
founded.
Many have long suspected that the Niger uranium forgeries, fake documents
the Bush administration trumpeted to falsely accuse Iraq of buying uranium
from Africa for nuclear weapons, were chartered by American
neoconservatives in order to provide a pretext they desperately needed for
war. Perhaps the FBI's investigation into the matter definitively proves it.
However, despite years of requests for the 1,000 pages of that investigation,
the FBI after initially duly proceeding with a
FOIA, has now suddenly clammed up. (Niger
uranium denial PDF)
8. Israel lobbyists embedded in the Treasury
and Justice Departments. Israel lobbying
organizations have been very effective at
embedding their operatives in key positions
across the Federal government, such as Stuart
Levey in the Treasury Department's economic
warfare unit, or former AIPAC director Tom Dine
http://www.irmep.org/foia/05062012response.pdfhttp://www.irmep.org/foia/06212012full_denial.pdfhttp://www.irmep.org/foia/05062012response.pdfhttp://www.irmep.org/foia/05062012response.pdfhttp://original.antiwar.com/smith-grant/2012/05/17/us-charity-secretly-funds-israeli-nukes/http://www.irmep.org/foia/06212012full_denial.pdf -

as a contractor at the floundering US government-funded Arabic-language
broadcaster Alhurra. It used to be possible to get a phone directory or
conduct a comprehensive audit of which key political appointees (and the
people they brought in) were running critical divisions of federal agencies by
obtaining detailed Office of Personnel Management and other publicrecords. Not anymore. (FOIA response PDF) Leveraging heightened post-
911 sensitivities, the US Treasury Department now claims the same
protections against disclosure formerly enjoyed only by intelligence agency
employees.
Since the 1940s, the U.S. Department of Justice
has earned a reputation as a place where Israel
lobby criminal investigations go to die. Justice is
also where an AIPAC official like Neil Sher can
while away a few years on pet projects at taxpayer
expense before moving on to more lucrative
outside work. DOJ also routinely denies files
about its past official decisions not to pursue
criminal cases on the basis that doing so could
jeopardize privacy, ongoing investigations, or
factors underlying its coveted "prosecutorial
discretion" (e.g. charging the disenfranchised but
not powerful insiders for wrongdoing). Like
Treasury, it is now almost impossible to survey and produce an organization
chart of the Israel lobby's political appointees embedded at high and mid-
level Justice Department posts or the biographies of the staff and contractors
they bring in with them.
9. Unclassified IDA report about US charities funding the Israeli nuclear
weapons program. Sensitive reports need not be classified for the
government to hang on to them indefinitely. In 1987 the Institute for
Defense Analyses delivered an unclassified report to the Department of
Defense titled "Critical Technology Issues in Israel." The study implicates
the Israeli Weizmann Institute for Science and Technology in nuclearweapons research, raising deep questions about the group's U.S. tax-exempt
charitable fundraising and U.S. commitment to enforce the Nuclear Non-
Proliferation Treaty. The Department of Defense withheld the IDA report
from release on the basis of FOIA exemptions covering trade secrets and
"intra-agency communicationsprotected by the deliberative process

privilege," among
others. (FOIA denial PDF)
10. Justification for
NSA funneling rawintelligence on
Americans to
Israel. If former NSA
contractor Edward Snowden
has taught Americans
anything, it is that "unknown
knowns" are usually even
worse than many might
have first imagined. Some
careful observers knew
about massive NSA
surveillance, while
others alerted the public about the danger of "backdoor" U.S. intelligence
flows to Israel. But who ever suspected the NSA was shipping wholesale
raw intercepts gathered on Americans to Israel under a secret deal struck in
2009? No government that wholly denies such relevant information can
claim legitimacy via consent of the governed. There can be little doubt why
these ten files are kept closed: it serves the Israel lobby. The means by which
this closure is sustained is also no secret. The millions of dollars that line
politician's pockets, promote media pundits and quietly spirit political
appointees into key gatekeeper positions maintain closed files and prevent
informed public debate.
Because of this, Americans should proceed assuming the worst conceivable,
most logical explanation for any given U.S.-Israel "unknown known" is
correctuntil proven otherwise. Under this guideline, it is prudent to
believe that LBJproperly warned by his intelligence services and advisors
that Israel was stealing the most precious military material on earth from
Americawas simply too marinated in Israel lobby campaign cash tofaithfully uphold his oath of office. It is similarly reasonable to believe the
Justice Department and FBI won't release Israeli spy files because Americans
would finally understand that, despite massive ongoing harm to America,
political appointees in the Justice Department thwart warranted prosecutions.
DOJ finds it much easier to stay "on message" through a long line of lobby-
approved but mostly bogus "Islamic terrorism cases" (many made via

sketchy undercover informants goading members of targeted minority
communities into "terror" plots). According to its own records, every time it
tried to uphold the law in the 1940s the DOJ suddenly found itself internally
and externally swarmed by Israel lobbyists with inexhaustible financial warchests and legal experts working to quash warranted prosecutions in secret
coordination with Israel. The DOJ now likely believes it can never win
against Israel lobby generated media and political agitation when it moves to
prosecute, and has now simply given up.
It is logical to assume that Israel was found selling out America to the
Soviets in Pollard's case, since little else explains the unusually harsh impact
of Weinberger's secret memo. It is similarly likely that the FBI's AIPAC
wiretaps would, if released today, accurately reveal Rosen and Weissman to
be what they actually wereunregistered foreign agents operating on behalfof and in ongoing contact with the Israeli government rather than legitimate
domestic lobbyists. It is similarly more productive to assume that at least
one neoconservative operative with strong ties to the involved entities in Italy
such as Michael Ledeenserved as barker to the Italian sideshow that
disseminated forged documents.
According to documents released by Edward Snowden, the transfer of raw
NSA intercepts on American citizens to Israel was authorized under a secret
doctrine that "the survival of the state of Israel is a paramount goal of US
Middle East policy." This "prime directive" was probably a secret because itis a blank check obligating American blood and treasure to a cause American
citizens never approved via advise and consent. But why did the Obama
administrationeven as it dismissed espionage charges against AIPAC staff
in 2009so deeplybetray American privacy? Under "unknown known"
doctrine, most would assume that like LBJ before him, Obama sold out
America because his Israel lobby handlers secretly demanded and paid for it
on behalf of a foreign country. What other goodies Obama doled out to
Israel in exchange for help gaining the highest office remain to emerge.
The official process for obtaining official public disclosure of "uknownknowns"the Freedom of Information Actdoes not function when the
stakes in disclosure are high and Israeli interests are involved. Agencies (and
ISCAP) correctly perceive government credibility is at stake when there is
real openness, and that bona fide transparency would positively impact how

with such control over USpolicy , I would not be
surprised if Israel did nothave a weapon in thiscountry for use asblackmail. We knownothing about theirnuclear program, or theamount of weapons theyhave. To quote some ofmy "friends" the only wayto stop a bad guy withgun is a good guy with a
gun. So nucleardeterrence, or parity,should be the order in themid- east.
