31. Surely they shouldnt mention "Israel"
Free Gilad Shalit ,   Israel   (10.20.09)
If they set up this sting and Israel has nothing to do with it, why are they publicising our country and not keeping it at "to a foreign country"? We will get dragged through the mud for this even though we arent involved.
32. worrisome indeed

It could have been a iranian agent possing as a mossad instead of a fbi agent. If he is spying for any county he is a traitor, Israel included. He should be hung to set a example to those who think it is ok if its for israel. Because these jackoffs can be tricted by anyone if the FBI got him. This type of scum must be entraped before the damage is done.
33. Hopefully, he will lern the lesson.

34. Manuel, I agree with both of your posts.

I thought that it wash a Bush method to intimidate Jews (both Papa and Son used it) but it appears to be an FBI thing. Curious that the FBI never tempted their Hezbollah babe they hired and then palmed off on the CIA. She was a Hezbollah connected, Lebanon native, FBI officer working right under their noses, while her cousin worked in the Army, or was it Marines. The only place you could read about that FBI infiltration was on Atlas. The thing was handled very quietly -- no sting operations. With the Islamic terror war going on the FBI obviously has bigger fish to fry -- potential Israel sympathizers. They sure have their priorities straight.
35. DEAR TALKBACKERS
Sam ,   NY, USA   (10.20.09)
Some of you have either misread the article or solely read the title. The "Israeli agent" was actually an undercover FBI agent, and this man was only interested in the monetary reward. Any country could have had this man's services - for a price.
36. WHY the Set up ?
Marcel ,   Florida   (10.20.09)
Why was this man specifically set up and Israel the target country ? Easy answer.Israel has a strong pro-Israel base of support in America and this was a purposful entrapment to further erode this strong support. The anti-Israel Islamic world is very happy only weeks after one of their own,Al Queda connected Zazi was arrested in Denver for attempting to use WMD's to kill as many Americans as he could. There is no comparasion between the two as the government media would hope to make with the American people to bring Israel down. THat is their evil gamr ,their goal because the Saudi's and their oil own us now. They are no longer trading exclusivly in US dollars and this is terminal for the US economy and so the US has to cater to Saudi intersets or suffer more damage. Look for more anti-Israle attacks from the US governmemnt coming soon. The US has a long track record of betraying friends and allies. The Shah of Iran ,the South Vietnamese are just a few of many. This is where America in freefall is now with Israel .It has to shed the special bond to cater to the Islamic world. The Federal Bureau of Incompetent's could have just as easily used Russia or China or some Islamic nation as the target of benefit but it was a one time very close ally and strong friend in the heart of the Islamic region which was no coincidence This FBI sting benefits the anti-semites and takes the heat off the Ilsamic terrorists always being arrested here for their attempts to blow up things and brings down Israel to their level. Watch for the evil US government media to play this up in the news to assuage the moslems here in the US and world wide that the US no longer has a special bond with Israel and is like them ,an enemy of Israel.
37. PRIVATE CONTRACT SPY

38. hahaha he got caught, baaaaaaa
ghostq   (10.20.09)
trying, I been trying to do stuff for ages it doesn't mean I can get away with what I want.
39. Why did FBI chose ISRAEL as the so-called spying power?
Alan ,   SA   (10.20.09)
Why didnt FBI chose Brazil or China or ANY other country. Why did FBI nominate ISRAEL ..... Israel had NOTHING to do withy this guy! Israel probably never even heard of him. Its part of the Israel destabilisation programme. It also perhaps balances the CAIR disclosures so FBI was instructed to arrest him NOW!!!!! More OBAMISCHIEF for Israel . Im really disgusted!!!! Honest.
40. #23 Curious George!
jb ,   CANADA   (10.20.09)
Thanks George for your anti-semitic diatribe. Can't you read? What part of Canada are you from, the illiterate Left?? The FBI approached this guy masquerading as an Israeli, not the other way round! They chose Israel because they're Jew haters. Choosing China would have made more sense. Anything to fit your Protocols of Zion BS conspiracy. People like you make me ashamed to be a Canadian. Thankful you and your ilk don't run the country.
