A High Flying Crime Ring in New Jersey and New York
By Rowan Wolf
In the category of "you can't make this stuff up," we have the case of corruption in New Jersey which ranks right up there. The FBI have arrested 3 Mayors and numerous assemblymen, and a couple of rabbis (40 plus folks so far), on charges of money laundering and at least one case of selling a human organ on the black market.
Among the luminaries arrested are:
A New Jersey assemblyman and the mayors of Hoboken and Secaucus were among public officials arrested this morning by FBI agents in an international money laundering and corruption probe that includes rabbis in the Syrian Jewish communities of Deal and Brooklyn.Assemblyman Daniel Van Pelt (R-Ocean), Hoboken Mayor Peter Cammarano, Secaucus Mayor Dennis Elwell and Jersey City Council President Mariano Vega are among those already brought to the FBI building in Newark. Jersey City Deputy Mayor Leona Beldini has also been arrested.
The NJ.com article has several video clips for those who are interested.
According to the article at Forbes, the roundup included five rabbis from NJ and NY and the FBI raided a synagogue in Deal, NJ:
In rounding up the defendants, FBI and IRS agents raided a synagogue Thursday morning in Deal, a wealthy oceanfront city of Mediterranean-style mansions, with a large population of Syrian Jews.Those arrested include Levy Izhak Rosenbaum of Brooklyn, who was charged with conspiring to arrange the sale of an Israeli citizen's kidney for $160,000 for a transplant for the informant's fictitious uncle. Rosenbaum was quoted as saying he had been arranging the sale of kidneys for 10 years.
The politicians arrested were not accused of any involvement in the money laundering or the trafficking in human organs and counterfeit handbags.
Also rounded up were a number of government employees (inspectors and others) who participated in the corruption, but were not part of the money laundering activities.
The money laundering ring stretched from the U.S. to Switzerland and Israel, with charities and non-profits being used.
From the Wall Street Journal:
In 2007, for example, Eliahu Ben Haim, the principal rabbi of Congregation Ohel Yaacob, a synagogue in the shore community of Deal, accepted a $50,000 check from the cooperating witness, which was drawn from an account held by a fictitious company set up by the FBI "for the purpose of enabling [the cooperating witness] to launder money represented to be the proceeds of illegal activities," according to one criminal complaint. Mr. Ben Haim was named as a co-conspirator in court documents. The check was made payable to one of Mr. Ben Haim's charitable organisations "with the expectation that the proceeds would be returned to the [cooperating witness] at a later date, minus a ten percent fee to be retained by Co-conspirator Ben Haim."Besides Mr. Ben Haim, the charged rabbis include Edmond Nahum, the principal rabbi of Deal Synagogue; Saul Kassin, a rabbi at Shaare Zion Congregation in the New York borough of Brooklyn; Mordchai Fish, a rabbi at a Brooklyn synagogue, Congregation Sheves Achim; and his brother, Lavel Schwartz, also a rabbi.
So we have a sordid tale of politicians, commissioners, government employees, and rabbis variously engaged in money laundering, selling counterfeit pursues, and trafficking in human organs. What is not clear at all is where that money was going and for what purpose.

"The rings were international in scope, connected to Deal, N.J., Brooklyn, Israel and Switzerland"

Switzerland Creates New Era Of National Piracy
The World Needs International Law to Force Switzerland to Return Monies in Cases Of Death
---------------------------------------------------------
1- From the sea waves to the Ice Mountains, the Piracy has taken a new shape. It is not enough that Swiss Banks collected mountains of money and gold from every part of the world. They know that some of this money is illicit money, which means that the Swiss policy encourages and participates in illegal actions, and that gives the right for many countries to sue Switzerland to restore their money.
Also the World needs new international law to force the Swiss Banks to return the money, in case of death of the clients, to the mother country of the client. All countries are the legal guardians of all their citizens. Therefore, if a client dies without specified dispensation of his assets, those assets should revert to the client's country of nationality.
2- Also the Swiss Officials want to create an international Empire of Spying by illegal methods, since they punish the foreign people and refugees who refuse to work as clients in the Swiss Intelligence, and I will give an example about that, Colonel Dr. MOHAMED EL GHANAM
3- Now, I will explain the terrorist action that Switzerland practices against Colonel Dr. MOHAMED ELGHANAM who refused to work as client of the Swiss Intelligence, even though Dr. ELGHANAM is the author of anti-terrorism law, and one of only 7 persons in the world who carry international certificate as Expert in anti- terrorism.
My brother Colonel Dr. MOHAMED El GHANAM is the author of Anti-terrorism law in Egypt, and former director of legal research in the Ministry of Interior in Egypt. Also, he is a Dr. of Criminal Law, and Professor in several Egyptian law universities.
My brother is professor in the Police Academy in Cairo, also he taught many African officers several classes in the Egyptian police academy [ especially about Anti-terrorism ].
My brother represented Egypt many times in America and Europe as Expert in Anti -Terrorism.
But, since 2001, he had Political Asylum in Switzerland.
The brief of this situation referred to three years ago ,when my brother refused to work as client with the Swiss intelligence.
Switzerland practiced several illegal behaviors and many crimes to force him to work with them, but they failed. They tried to fabricate many things against my brother to escape from the responsibility of their crimes that they practiced against him, so they had to practice new crimes to cover the old ones.
1- They arrested my brother in 2005 for some months.
2- They arrested my brother in 2006 for some months.
3- They expelled him from his apartment, also they gave orders to the hotels to refuse him, so my brother for several nights was in the street , especially in the last months until his disappearance, although as you know, the hotels are empty at that time of the year.
Since March 12, 2007, my brother disappeared, no contact , no telephones.
I hope you would investigate this matter and bring the Swiss Officials who are involved to face international justice.
Thank you for taking the time to read.
Sincerely,
Dr. ALI ELGHANAM

1. HOW USA CAN AVOID THE 3RD SWISS SLAP ?
USA POLICY AS I SEE,
IF SWITZERLAND SLAPS YOU ON THE RIGHT CHEEK, TURN THE LEFT CHEEK TO THEM, OK... USA ALEADY RECEIVE 2 SLAPS ON BOTH CHEEKS, FIRST ONE FROM SWISS UBS BANK IN DC, AND 2ND ONE FROM NJ- BROOKLYN RING GANGS LAST MONTH.
Q. SO HOW USA CAN AVOID THE 3RD SWISS SLAP ?
A. USA MUST PUSH U.N. TO CREATE INTERNATIONAL MONETARY SYSTEM
REGARDING SWISS BANKS'S POLICY
SWISS BANKS " THE SWISS INTERNATIONAL CANCER"
2. THE ABSENCE OF ETHICS IN SWISS BANKS
THE WORLD CAN NOT STAY SILENT ABOUT THE SWISS UNETHICAL POLICY OF COLLECTING OF WORLD'S MONEY IN SWITZERLAND.
THE WORLD MUST SUPERVISE THESE PROCESSES
MONEY IN THE SWISS BANKS IS NOT FROM NATURAL INTERNAL SOURCE, BUT FROM EXTERNAL SOURCE, OR ILLICIT SOURCE.
SO, ALL PERSONS IN THE WORLD POSSESS A SHARE IN THE SWISS BANKS, SO THE INTERNATIONAL BANK OR U.N. MUST SUPERVISE OR ISSUE A FAIR AND NEUTRAL DECISION IN THIS MATTER.
3. THE ABSENCE OF RELIGIOUS ETHICS IN SWISTZERLAND
SWITZERLAND, THE DANGEROUS ENEMY TO ISLAM & USA Economy
Swiss policy will force the Islamic world to withdraw
his money from the Swiss banks
SO, Swiss policy infiltrated INSIDE USA tax.
SWITZERLAND HAS ARRESTED SENIOR POLICE COLONEL, PhD IN CRIMINAL LAW( my brother Mohamed EL Ghanam), WHO REFUSED TO SPY ON THE ISLAMIC & ARABIC COMMUNITY in Geneva.
sincerely,
. Ali EL Ghannam
