Jack Abramoff's Israeli connections
Abramoff also allegedly convinced Congressman Robert Ney, House
Administrative Committee chairman, to award a contract worth $3
million to a start-up Israeli telecommunications firm called
Foxcom Wireless. The contract was for the installation of
antennas in House of Representatives buildings to improve
cell-phone reception. Not surprisingly, such equipment can be
designed to have what is known as a "back door" to enable a
third party, in this case Mossad, to listen in. That an Israeli
firm should be given such a contract through a selection process
that was described as "deeply flawed and unfair" is explicable,
particularly as there were American suppliers of the same
equipment, and it suggest that the private conversations of some
of our Congressmen might not be so private after all.
In a previous scandal in 2001, FBI investigators strongly
suspected that two Israeli companies, AMDOCS and Comverse
Infosys, which had been allowed to obtain U.S. government
telecommunications contracts, were able to use back-door
technology to compromise the security of DEA, Pentagon, and
White House phones.

developments will transpire over the next 12 months. I've
decided to take the reductio ad absurdum approach, and predict
what might happen in 2006 should the most disturbing trends
