Anat Dot Com Breaking News; Disk "lost"

In newly released for publication revelation from the Anat Kamm and Haaretz Reporter Uri Blau (alleged) espionage case; the disk with with the additional 1950 stolen and classified IDF documents -- has "disappeared."

YNET reports today (only currently in Hebrew), that one of the CDs burned by Kamm, and given to Blau has disappeared and no one knows where it is.

It could have been thrown out in the trash, or might be hanging from someone's rear-view car mirror in Netanya, or they could be in the hands of Iran, Hizbollah, Hamas, Fatah or Bin-Laden.

The IDF is now working under the assumption that the files have fallen into the hands of Israel's enemies, and are changing hundreds of operational plans.

The utter irresponsibility of Anat Kamm and Uri Blau towards the security of the State of Israel is staggering.

Anat Dot Com; Espionage in the Digital Age

In the old days, espionage involved photographing documents with super secret spy cameras. As technology evolved, it got simpler -- like using a copying machine.

In the alleged case of Anat Kamm, it seems she took it a step forward, either burning the 2000 classified documents onto CD, or even simply -- copying it to a USB "disk on key." By the way - the "disk on key" technology was invented in Israel.

Regardless, there are a few important posts I'd like to link on the subject of Anat Kamm and Uri Blau.

One is by Attorney Dr. Haim Misgav, who writes that "Anarchy isn’t democracy: Law and order not top priority of journalist charged with espionage."

Another is by historian and author, Yaacov Lozowick, entitled, "A Threat to Democracy" One statement which jumped as me was:

"Some of Israel's critics are dong everything in their power to portray her as a brave whistle-blower. (Silverstone, Mondowiess). The problem with this story line is that she didn't blow any whistles while she was in a position to do so, and after she left the army it took more than a year before she found anyone willing to look at her documents."

Lastly, "Had She Been A Settler?" Yaki Hafstein wonders whether we’d see different reactions had spy suspect Kam been a rightist...

I understand Lurker is about to post on this subject as well.

Treason and Treachery by Israel's Leftists

Walla Gossip Reporter Anat Kamm
Soldier/Spy/Traitor.

Today, an Israeli court ordered that the media blackout be partially lifted on the highly secretive case we reported on the other day.

Some of the newly released details are rather sordid and reveal the mindset of some of Israel's ideological leftists -- Anat Kamm, a soldier spy who illegally stole and copied to CD highly classified documents -- over 2000 of them, while serving as a soldier in the IDF's Central Command.

After leaving the IDF, Kamm became a gossip columnist for the Walla news/gossip site and passed the documents to a leftwing, agenda-driven reporter with Haaretz, Uri Blau.

Using these stolen, classified documents, Blau wrote an article in Dec. 2008 which discussed the killing of Palestinian terrorists by the IDF. Blau alleged that the army had held discussions which revealed that the IDF ignored High Court rulings in regards to the targeted killings. Blau claimed the killings were carried out following orders issued by the IDF, even in cases in which the wanted terror suspects could have been arrested.

In September 2009, Blau, via his attorney, handed the Shin Bet 50 of the stolen documents he had received from Kamm. Yet the IDF and Shin Bet's investigation revealed that Kamm had copied and later transferred more than 2,000 documents to the Haaretz reporter -- and Blau had lied to the Shin Bet when he said the 50 files was "all he had."

YNET reports that "some of the documents detailed plans for past and future IDF operations, summaries of meetings between senior IDF officers, combat doctrines, Central Command defense plans, ways of dealing with a possible flare-up in the territories and information on the deployment of IDF forces. "

The Haaretz reporter, Uri Blau has fled to London to avoid arrest by Israel.

With the details released for publication by Israel's court, Haaretz quickly ran to defend their reporter, saying that the Blau's articles were approved for publication by the IDF censor,. Haaretz criticized the Shin Bet:

"Haaretz regrets the sudden change in the Shin Bet's position and its consequences, which have resulted in threats and heavy pressure on a reporter who was just doing his job.

Of course, Haaretz makes no mention that their intrepid reporter knowingly used stolen classified documents, lied to the IDF, and failed to return 2000 stolen files to the IDF as he had agreed.

Now, Israeli intelligence sources are concerned that Blau is a target for hostile intelligence agencies towards Israel and they are already hunting down Blau in London. These agencies plan on exerting physical violence to force Blau to turn over the 2000 stolen, classified IDF files.

How ironic.

Blau's treason and treachery against Israel may end up getting him killed by anti-Zionist agents -- those aligned with the same groups he advocated for, as a leftist agenda-driven Haaretz reporter.
