 FBI’s missing files or computers: Who stole them?

Could Israeli agents be responsible for the theft"
by Aslam Abdullah

FBI is missing 184 laptop computers — at least one containing classified
material — along with 449 weapons. The missing laptops include 13 that
are thought to have been stolen. One of the missing computers is known to
contain classified material and three others might have classified
material, said officials from the Justice Department and FBI, who spoke on
condition of anonymity.

The FBI has roughly 50,000 guns and 13,000 computers. Officials say the
FBI is in the process of tracking down the whereabouts of each one of
them.  The one lost computer that contained classified information was
used by a field office in connection with two investigations that were
closed within the last few years, officials said.

Who is the thief? Or is the scare tactic by the agency? Or the laptops and
weapons are buried in the storage areas of the FBI? These and many similar
questions will be raised during the next few weeks.

If the computers are stolen, who could be the potential stealers. FBI is a
very tight knit agency and it is almost impossible for any terrorist group
to infiltrate its ranks.  It is even more difficult to remove a piece of
paper from the agency without undergoing the strict scrutiny.  It seems
that the stealers, if there are any, may come from a group who are
considered friendly by the agency. These friendly people have used FBI for
their purposes in the past. For instance, the ADL and the American Jewish
Committee have used FBI resources to extract information about Arab and
Muslim activists in the country. Is it likely that the Pro-Israeli
elements may be responsible for the theft of such sensitive computers? The
possibility cannot be ruled given the fact that Jonathan Polllard spied
for Israel and during the Clinton-Lewisnky affair, the Israeli
intelligence was allegedly monitoring the White House phone lines.

Israel has a strong network in the country and our friendly ties with the
pro-Israeli elements make the rulers of Tel Aviv less likely to be
involved in this case. However, no other friendly country has ever spied
on our leaders or used our secret agency for its purposes. No other
friendly country hired agents like Pollard to pass on sensitive
information to it secret service. Also, no country, other than Israel,
ever defied our embargo on selling technology to those who are deemed as
worst violators of human rights.

Israel is perturbed with the growing population and votes of Muslims and
Arabs in the country. Its agents are monitoring every movement of Muslim
and Arab political institutions and leaders on a systematic basis. There
exists a possibility that Israel might like to see all the information
concerning the activities of its agents as stored in FBI files. Israel
might like to know whose cover from amongst its agents has been blown up.
Israel might also like to see the FBI sources about Islam and Muslims. For
all these reasons, the possibility of an Israeli hand in the missing
computers should not be ruled out. The FBI officials should look at this
possibility closely. If the possibility is a reality then the country
would benefit from such an investigation, if it is only a speculation,
than the FBI would be in a better position to explain to the country that
the usage of the agency’s resources by the ADL or AJC in the past was an
exception.
