I would go a little easy on this story for a bit. Fox News aired a three part piece on active Israeli intelligence operations targeting military bases in 2000 and 2001. They were sending art students to sell paintings to military bases. The paintings had listening devices in them.

They were also selling these toy helicopters in shopping malls as a cover for being in the US.

There is an ongoing investigation as to what Israel knew leading up to the attack on the WTC. The warnings were too vague to act specifically on, and when pressed for more information, they wouldn't as it would expose an sources and methods.

I can see 90 Jewish arab speakers failing either the NAC or the BI portion of their FBI app very easily.

I'm more apt to give the FBI credit here than blame.

The art student story is antiwar.com bs written by justin raimondo.

Here is some good background
