Israeli Spy Arrested In US
2008-04-22
A U.S. Army mechanical engineer has been arrested on charges that he slipped classified documents about nuclear weapons to an employee of the Israeli Consulate.

The arrest of Ben-ami Kadish is being detailed Tuesday by the U.S. attorney in Manhattan and FBI officials. A criminal complaint says the activities occurred from 1979 through 1985. Kadish worked at the U.S. Army's Armament Research, Development and Engineering Center in Dover, N.J.

The complaint says Kadish took home classified documents several times, and the Israeli government worker photographed them in Kadish's basement. The documents included information about nuclear weapons, a modified version of an F-15 fighter jet, and the U.S. Patriot missile air defense system.

Steve White #5 Mitch: we'd damned well better. Espionage is just that. If we want our friends to have our stuff, we'll share.

Dittos Dr. White.

#7  Mitch, I don't know. Maybe we just haven't caught them yet. If the material is not supposed to be available to foreign governments, and we catch them accessing it, yes, we should prosecute.

#5  The Israelis were the first recipients of the F-15 in 1975, and the Israeli nukes supposedly date from that time-period. The Patriot was obviously from a later date.

But really, do we prosecute British or Japanese "spies" for this sort of thing?

#2  ...Why would Israel want info about those systems? They've already gotten or had access to all three. I suspect a false flag...
