Investigation of Israeli Men on 9/11
Esta mujer veía arder las Torres Gemelas desde su apartamento en Nueva Jersey.
Vio a tres hombres encima de una furgoneta, posando para fotos con las
torres ardiendo de fondo.
Y pude ver que estaban, digamos, contentos.
Ya sabe, ellos, ellos, ellos— No me parecían sorprendidos.
Ya sabe, no parecían sorprendidos. Me pareció muy extraño.
La testigo llamó a la policía, que detuvo la furgoneta horas después y
arrestó a cinco hombres. Resultó que los cinco eran
israelíes. Fueron entregados al FBI.
Fuentes informan a ABC News que, durante una revisión de las bases de datos
de seguridad nacional,
algunos hombres figuraban con vínculos con la inteligencia israelí.
En el FBI, eso hizo sonar las
alarmas. El FBI necesitaba respuestas a tres
preguntas importantes.
¿Quiénes eran estos hombres? ¿Qué los llevó a
ese estacionamiento la mañana del
11 de septiembre? ¿Y sabían de antemano
lo que iba a ocurrir ese día?
Los hombres dijeron que solo estaban tomando fotos entonces.
Dijeron que trabajaban para una empresa llamada Urban Moving.
El FBI obtuvo una orden de registro para las oficinas de la empresa.
Dos SUV se llenaron con entre nueve y
doce cajas y computadoras.
Poco después de los arrestos, las oficinas de Urban Moving fueron
simplemente abandonadas. Casi todo se dejó atrás.
En prisión, los cinco israelíes fueron interrogados repetidamente y sometidos a pruebas de detector
de mentiras. Stephen Gordon era su abogado estadounidense.
Les preguntaron si alguna vez h habían sido
contactados o contratados por algún
servicio de inteligencia no estadounidense.
Aunque aún hay cierto debate entre funcionarios de inteligencia estadounidenses, muchos
investigadores creen que algunos

databases, some of the men were listed as having had connections with Israeli intelligence. At the FBI, that set off alarm bells. The FBI needed the answers to three important questions.
Who were these men? What brought them to that parking lot on the morning of September 11th? And did they have any advance knowledge of what was going to happen that day? The men said they were just taking pictures at the time.
They said they worked for a company called Urban Moving. The FBI obtained a search warrant for the company's offices. Two SUVs were filled up with between nine and twelve boxes and computers. Not long after the arrests, the offices of Urban Moving were

non-United States intelligence community. While there is still some debate among American intelligence officials, many investigators believe some
