A few case studies from Grant F. Smith
A little history...
A vast illegal smuggling network of bogus non-profit groups looted the US of armaments after World War II to arm Israel.
Completely in violation of the Arms Export Act.
Whenever the FBI got close to busting the operation, the Justice Department would intervene and quash prosecutions.
And that was the just the first round.
A brief history of un-prosecuted Israeli foreign agent, smuggling and espionage cases.
This first American National Summit was held at the National Press Club by The Institute for Research: Middle Eastern Policies, the Council for the National Interest, the Washington Report on Middle East Affairs, and If Americans Knew.
