Two Israelis Arrested in east Tennessee Transporting Suspicious Materials
Various local news broadcasts ^ | May 9, 2004 | who knows what evil?

Posted on 05/09/2004 3:51:42 PM PDT by who knows what evil?

My apologies in advance on this story; I just happened to catch this on several different newscasts a few minutes ago, and I am going by memory as best I can. Unicoi County (Tennessee) sheriffs arrested two Israeli men after a high-speed chase down mountain roads in this east Tennessee locale. While the sheriff was in pursuit, local witnesses noticed that materials were being thrown from the truck as it sped by, well over the posted speed limits. These witnesses were able to locate some of these items; one of which included a jug whose contents became "unusually hot" after the ingredients inside were shaken together. (Goes into the "Hey, y'all...watch this" category, WKWE.) Upon arrest, the police noted that the cab of the truck contained a "Learn How to Fly" brochure, along with passports and Florida licenses that "just didn't seem to add up". The Israelis claimed they were "just in the process of moving some furniture up to Boston". The police also stated that these two Israelis are "not being cooperative in any way." The FBI is investigating the nature of the substance in the jug that was recovered, which has been classified as an "inflammable fuel."

My questions:

1. What ELSE was in this (big yellow) 25-foot Ryder truck?
2. If they were travelling from Florida to Boston, what were they doing on a two-lane back road in the mountains of east Tennessee, several hundred miles WEST of Interstate 95; the most direct route from Florida to Boston?
3. What is the volatile substance in the jug, and why did they wish to avoid getting caught with it? (Why else would they pitch it?)
4. Why are they interested in "Learning How to Fly?"
5. Were they REALLY going to Boston, or were they MORE interested in the nearby Nuclear Fuel Services plant, or, G-d forbid, the huge Eastman Chemical Plant, about thirty miles further up the road?

It will be interesting to see if the national media picks up on this.

familyop ,of course, never responded to the many posts directed to him.

I guess he didn't think we would be able to read his post.

[Dahan is charged with reckless driving, littering, false identification and evading arrest...]

"Dahan, you are hereby charged with reckless driving, evading arrest, false identification, terrorism, and worst of all -- littering!"

Enter sound track: Donnn-da-dan-dan. Donnn-da-dan-dan-daaaan.

All kidding aside, this sounds strange.

Like the ones who were filming the WTC and laughing and celebrating and who repeatedly failed the FBI lie detector tests they were sent home for "visa violations".

5 kids who were cleared of wrong-doing, other than visa violations. Yawn...

You know what, just forget it. If I posted some article about crimes perpetrated by the KKK, specifically stated they are loons and no way representative of the American caucasian population, nobody in their right mind would accuse me of hating white people in general. There is such a thing as seeing enemies where there aren't any.

Any I'm fully aware of the link and group you're speaking of, and no, I don't think they're the same people.

Many? Post them. There was one other, ultimately discredited by Ashcroft...

The problem with that is Ashcroft, never secured our own borders after 911, so he wouldn't be a credible source.

Uh, what is LF?

A forum, an internet graveyard, metaphorically speaking, for banned anti-semitic posters from various sites.

If the story in the link posted earlier about these "5 kids" is even close to accurate then your blanket dismissal is not valid. Did the "Urban Moving" company they worked for disappear as stated?

And before you get venomous, note that I'm not claiming/hinting/anything else about Israel being involved in 9/11. I think that they had spies here monitoring Islamists and knew about some of the hijackers (as terrorists, not that they were going to hijack planes).

I wouldn't know Cathy. I don't have inside knowledge to this investigation, and there seems to be no other sources. If find that strange since everytime someone leaves a piece of luggage alone for a moment at any of our airports, it's on every channel while they shut down the entire airport, or we find out every detail about someone forgetting a pocket knife in their pocket while boarding a flight.

Looking for more articles or sources.....

I'm from Tennessee and my entire life I only met one Klan member. There were more Klan members in Illinois than Tennessee ever had.

"The five Israeli guys that had been caught dancing and supposedly exchanging high fives while filming the collapsing twin towers was carried a little longer"

Interesting. I remember them being Arab or Persian.

Betcha a nice chunk of change that when all the details come out, these Israelis turn out to be actually arabs/muslims, not jews - - If this story is even legit, of course.

Except that moonshine does not get "unusually hot" when you shake it up.
