US Army Engineer Spies for Israel

Did a Jewish US Army engineer take classified

US military documents home and let an Israeli

intelligence officer photograph them?

The answer, of course, is yes. This is

Ben-Ami Kadish, and in the nineteen eighties while

working as an engineer at the US Army arsenal, he

passed classified American documents to Israeli intelligence.

The material covered US missile defense systems,

nuclear weapon design, and the F-15 fighter jet.

His handler was Yusuf Yagur, the same Israeli

intelligence officer who ran Jonathan Pollard, who was also

spying for Israel to steal nuclear technology from the United

States. For years the operation went undetected

but was finally caught. And for all of this, he was only

given a fine. That's right, the United States Department of

Justice did not pursue any prison time.

At the time, there were two American citizens,

the same Israeli

handler, classified US military secrets handed

over, and almost no consequences.

And all of these men involved are looked at as heroes in

Israel. And somehow there are Americans today that think our

relationship with Israel is beneficial.
