JINSA is just a Jerusalem and Washington DC-based think tank recognized for stridently neoconservative policy positions on Israel's policy towards the Palestinians and its brinkmanship with Iran. The group's board has a Who's Who of neocon ideologues. Two former JINSA advisorswho also have used for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Douglas Feith and Richard Perle, continued to assist within the Department of Defense under President George W. Bush, playing important roles in-the drive to invade and occupy Iraq. Through its Law Enforcement Education Program (LEEP), JINSA claims to possess organized Israeli-led workout sessions for over 9000 American law enforcement authorities at the public, state and federal level. 'The Israelis changed the way in which we conduct business regarding homeland protection in New Jersey,' Richard Fuentes, the NJ State Police Superintendent, said after joining a 2004 JINSA-sponsored Israel journey and a following JINSA meeting along side 435 other law-enforcement officials. Throughout a 2004 LEEP journey, JINSA introduced 1-4 elderly American police to Israel to get training from their brethren. The Americans were competed in 'just how to secure significant locations, such as for instance departmental stores, sports and concerts,' JINSA's web site noted. Escorted by an Israeli authorities attache, Brigadier General Simon Perry and former Mossad standard, the team toured the Israeli divorce wall, now-a obligatory stop for American police on junkets to Israel. 'American authorities learned all about the mind-set of a bomber and how to place trouble signs,' based on JINSA. And they certainly were trained in Israeli killing techniques. 'Although law enforcement are usually advised to aim for the chest when firing since it may be the biggest goal, the Israelis are training [American] officials to aim for a suspect's head in order not to detonate any explosives that could be secured to his torso,' theNew York Times noted. Cathy Lanier, now the Principle of Washington DC's Metropolitan Police Department, was one of the law-enforcement authorities junketed to Israel by JINSA. 'I was using the blast units and the SWAT team and all those much talked about specific [Israeli] units and I discovered a significant amount,' Lanier resembled. 'I got 8-2 pages of notes while I was there which I later cut back and used to formulate lots of what I later used to produce and formulate the Homeland Security terrorism agency within the DC Metropolitan Police division.' Some of the police chiefs who've taken part in JINSA's LEEP plan have done therefore under the auspices of the Police Executive Research Forum (PERF), a personal non-governmental party with close connections to the Department of Homeland Security. Chuck Wexler, the executive director of PERF, was so excited about this program that by 2005 he'd started planning visits to Israel backed by PERF, getting numerous high-level American police authorities to get training from their Israeli counterparts. PERF gained prestige when Wexler established that his team matched police raids in 1-6 towns across America against 'Occupy' demonstration encampments. As much as 4-0 towns have sought PERF suggestions about controlling the 'Occupy' motion and other bulk demonstration actions. Wexler didn't react to my demands for an interview." Appears like a Coup d'etat in my experience. I'm speechless.
