Leaked US Documents Confirm Dangers of Israeli Organized Crime
Ali Abunimah

Known Israeli organized crime bosses are able to travel feely to the United States, unlike counterparts from Italy, China and Central America, because the State Department has failed to apply US law to them ... This revelation comes in a May 2009 cable from the US Embassy in Tel Aviv titled "Israel: A Promised Land for Organized Crime?" The cable, which was released by Wikileaks on August 26, details the growing alarm of American officials that "Organized crime in Israel now has global reach, with direct impact inside the United States." Israel, according to the cable, is a world center of money laundering, drug trafficking, and trafficking in women for prostitution; and Israeli crime families operate international criminal syndicates involved in gambling, credit card and technology fraud spanning the globe.
