The Israel Lobby Celebrates Espionage in New York
By Grant Smith
December 03, 2009 "Antiwar" -- The recent sting operation against former NASA scientist Stewart Nozette involved an undercover FBI employee posing as Mossad agent. Meeting in the posh Mayflower hotel in Washington, the agent set up clandestine payments in exchange for highly classified information. Nozette began delivering requested classified national defense information believing it to be destined for Israel while confidentially assuring the FBI agent that he thought he was already spying for Israel. This allegedly occurred under Nozette’s prior "consulting" contract with Israel Aerospace Industries, a major military contractor. Although the US has traditionally ignored, forgiven, or quashed investigations into Israeli espionage, the cost to America’s national security and economy may now have pushed law enforcement agencies toward a tipping point. Ironically, this very week, the Israel lobby is celebrating in New York the biggest clandestine operation ever conducted against US industries and workers.
Israel Aerospace Industries was once called Israel Aircraft Industries (IAI), a company launched by the legendary flight engineer and entrepreneur Adolph "Al" Schwimmer. Schwimmer was a key man in the vast underground Haganah smuggling (PDF) effort across the US trafficking in surplus WWII arms, supplies and veteran manpower for war in Palestine. He purchased heavily discounted surplus US military aircraft from the War Assets Administration but violated laws prohibiting their export use in armed conflict by creating a fake Panamanian shell corporation and flying the transport wing to Palestine to battle for the creation of Israel in 1948. None of the key American financial backers of the effort went to jail, though a handful of small operators such as Nathan Liff did eventually appear in criminal court. They received lenient sentences pleading they were only giving guns to "young Jewish boys who went to the door of Hitler’s ovens to bring Holocaust survivors to a Jewish homeland." Schwimmer, a convicted felon who served no prison time, left the US to become managing director of IAI with the backing of David Ben-Gurion and Shimon Peres.
IAI contracting with the Israeli Air Force boomed beginning in the 1950s as did widespread Israeli espionage against US military and industrial targets for vital aerospace know-how and proprietary weapons designs. A formal decision to expunge Schwimmer’s smuggling past didn’t arrive until the year 2000 when his friends in the US successfully lobbied Bill Clinton for a presidential pardon. Schwimmer was unrepentant, explaining to the Forward that pardons require he "fill out all sorts of papers asking for forgiveness, telling the Justice Department you’re sorry, you did wrong, and you regret it, and you won’t do it again. I didn’t feel that way, and I still don’t. I didn’t feel I had done anything wrong, so I never applied." Schwimmer is far from alone in exonerating himself for profitable crimes against America committed in the name of Israel, as a quiet celebration of a major but unknown Israeli covert operation takes place in New York City. continued
A Story Buried Faster
Than A Dead Skunk
Although this story just broke a few days ago, it had the life expectancy of a squashed bug. You may have already forgotten about it, if you heard about it at all... because many papers buried it on page 48. It should have been on Page 1, 72 point type. But no, it took me twenty minutes to find it on Google. The first blogs to come up were CrazyJoeFromFresno, Anti-Semites Central, and Stormfront. I was embarrassed to read them.
Nevertheless, I kept my wits about me and continued to search Google. What I was looking for was a credible source for the Jewish Spy Story, which apparently was eaten up by the Big Bad Wolf as it strolled through the jungle. Being of sound mind and body, I searched “Jewish spy story, New York Times” and up popped the story.
Later that week, 100 people were fired from the New York Times. The Times now keeps a record of the story in a run-down warehouse district which the Fire Department is insisting be condemned.
Stewart Nozelle, hot-shot scientist and accused of being a Jewish spy, still even has his own website.

On this page, he gives an interview of himself. Unfortunately, it was directed toward third-grade students, so you will have to control your "Who wrote this shit?" reaction. Apparently Mr. Nozette's greatest skills lay in spying for Israel and promoting his own career, which by pure coincidence happen to coincide.
Stewart Nozelle. A nose for news.
what the fuss is all about.
