money quickly and efficiently and the synagogue or yeshiva which makes easy money.
      The first laundering operation in which a Jewish institute in New York was involved was exposed in 1984. A ring which laundered about $23 million while
      making a profit of $2 million operated at the oldest yeshiva in the city, Tifereth Yerushalayim, located in Manhattan. The laundering was performed for the
      Kali cartel. The contact man was David Va'anunu, mentioned in the context of the Prism affair, who worked with the cartel's major launderer, Jose Satro.
      The yeshiva's representative was a very pious Hassid, Mendel Goldenberger, who daily received cash from Va'anunu and deposited the money in the
      yeshiva's accounts.
      Goldenberger, who claimed not to have known the source of the money, was convicted of forging bank documents and given five years' suspended
      imprisonment. Va'anunu was convicted, sentenced to eight years' imprisonment but released much earlier after he became an informer for the DEA. Later, as
      was stated, he ran into trouble again and fled the US. Nine persons were convicted in that affair, including Rabbi Israel Eidelman, Vice President of the
      yeshiva and some of its dignitaries. Tiferet Yer-ushalayim faced financial difficulties at that time. It leaders attempted to maintain the students by paying them
      from the laundered drug profits.
      The phenomenon, incidentally, is very common among New York Jews. Many Jewish congregations are dying because their members are leaving the city or
      their former neighborhoods. Thus, the congregations are losing their sources of income and facing large debts. In that situation the road is short for the
      synagogue or yeshiva to launder drug money as a pious duty, since it means easy money and lots of it. "Laundering money is extremely beneficial to the
      yeshivas and other Jewish religious institutions," said a source close to the investigation. "They are in a difficult situation and therefore they turn a blind eye to
      the drug problem. They don't ask what the source of the money is as long as it keeps coming in."
      The attitude of the pious Jewish community, according to the same source, is: "Drugs are sold anyway. As long as it does not harm our own community and
      only does good for it, it doesn't matter if we benefit from drug trade." The role of the Israelis is, in many cases, to make the connection between the religious
      Jewish communities of New York and the Colombians.
      The Colombians are more satisfied with this method of laundering than with any other because, for political reasons, it is a relatively secure way of which it
      could be initially assumed that it was not going to be forcibly investigated by the US authorities. Only in July 1990 the situation began to change.
      The Federal authorities renewed an investigation of some Williamsburg Hassids, owners of jewelry shops on 47th Street, who were suspected of laundering
      drug money. The investigation focused on the brothers Naftali, Naiklosh and Yitzhak Slilesinger, and on Ya'akov Shlesinger (Naftali's son) and Milon
      Jakloby, his nephew. The investigators found evidence of close connections between the Slilesingers and the Andonian brothers, members of a Colombian
      family accused of laundering, almost one billion dollars. The Shlesingers were suspected of laundering money by means of a subsidiary called Bali, through
      checks drawn from the account of "Camp Yereim" ["Camp of the Pious]" a Hassidic summer camp in the Catskills.
      Camp Yereim denies any connection with these checks. On April 7 of this year, Rabbi Abraham Lau, a prominent Hassid from "Magen Abraham" synagogue
      in Los Angeles was convicted of conspiring to launder drug money. Lau is married to the niece of the Satmar Rebbe, Moshe Teitlebaumi, who wields
      enormous political influence in New York State.
      Unfortunately, Lau told an undercover FBI agent about a "sacred network" of Satmar Hassids in which other Orthodox Jews had also participated. The
      "sacred network", whose membership was strictly limited to pious Jews, operated in the 47th Street area in New York and was capable of laundering up to
      $5 million weekly, thanks to its widespread contacts with Jewish charitable institutions.
      Unfortunately, law enforcement agents in New York do not believe that the "sacred network" and the many other Jewish laundering rings have any sanctity.
      In the past year the Federal activity concerning Israelis and Jews on 47th Street has greatly increased. The investigators now employ the services of many
      Hebrew translators since the rings, even if composed of native American Jews, employ only "the sacred language" for their operations.
      Aharon Sharir is, undoubtedly, the major Israeli launderer. He was born in Iraq about 45 years ago, immigrated to Israel with his family at the age of one
      year, graduated from an Israeli high school, served with distinction in the army and became an expert in fixing delicate mechanical instruments used to mend
      gold jewelry. In 1979, Sharir came to New York on a tourist visa with $6,000 in his pocket. He went into the gold business, established a small plant for
      manufacturing gold jewelry and did well. Then, through another Israeli diamond trader, he discovered the laundering business. Sharir reached a laundering
      activity of about $160,000 per day, six days per week (laundering is not done on the Sabbath), but in 1985 his wings were clipped when he was accused of
      having swindled a New York bank to the tune of $3 million. He quickly returned the money and was sentenced to a fine and a suspended prison sentence.
      In 1988 Sharir's laundering activities reached amazing heights. His gold shop on 47tll Street became one of the greatest laundering centers in the entire US.
      "Three times a week," Sharir told the court at one of the many trials in which he is now testifying, "we received the cash. It used to arrive in canvas sacks, in
      cardboard boxes or in suitcases. Sometimes there were a million dollars in one shipment."
      Roy Lopez, representing the Colombian cartels, would arrive from Miami equipped with a document sent from Colombia which contained detailed coded
      instructions about where to send the money. "Even with automatic money-counting machines it was difficult to count the money," Sharir testified. "It arrived in
      bills of 5, 10 and 20 dollars. The bills, most of which had been used to sniff cocaine, had a strong odor of coke. A real stink. My employees could not stand
      it. Every 2-3 hours they had to take a break, go out for some fresh air, so as not to get ill."
      Sharir's role was to see to it that the money would be transported out of the US and arrive in the bank accounts of the Colombian cartels in Panama and in
      Colombia. For that purpose he deposited money into his bank accounts, as though it was his profits from the shop, purchased assets for the use of the drug
      cartels, bought and sold gold at inflated prices from merchants who were part of the conspiracy and concealed money through various manipulations.
      Finally, all the money was turned into checks drawn on the accounts of Jewish religious institutions. Sharir received from the Colombians 6 percent of the
      turnover for his labors. Within a short period of time he moved with his family to a luxurious house in Woodmere, on Long Island. He purchased a luxury
      Jaguar car, showered his wife Miryam with expensive jewels and donated lavishly to Jewish charities.
      The troubles began in late 1988. In December his shop was raided by American customs and internal revenue agents, after they received notice from his
      banks concerning the volume of his deposits. They brought dogs to sniff out drugs, carried out a meticulous search of the offices and took away cars fall of
      documents. Sharir did no lose his cool. While the agents were milling around his offices, he managed to conceal $600,000 which were in his bank account at
      the time and to transfer the money to a safe place. Simultaneously, Sharir fell out with his Colombian operators who claimed that he stole $26 million of their
      drug money. Sharir, who denied the accusation, hired an Israeli professional investigator, Lihu Ichilov, to solve the mystery. Ichilov soon became Sharir's
      partner. He flew to Panama, established two dummy corporations there, opened bank accounts and improved the laundering routes.
      Following the Federal agents' raid on his offices Sharir did not give up.Within two weeks he opened two other offices on 47th Street and resumed work.
      When asked by one of his lawyers how he had expected to escape the attentions of the law, Sharir replied: "I changed my system and believed that now, with
      God's help, I would never be caught." Sharir's new system included Rabbi Yosef Crozet whom we discussed earlier. Crozer's big mouth brought Sharir
      down, and he was arrested in March 1990. Crozer also led to Sharir confessing to having laundered $200 million. His wife Miryam was arrested together
      with him. Sharir, under the pressure of the interrogation, agreed to cooperate in exchange for his wife's release and the cancellation of the charges against her.
      The prosecution agreed.
      It was an extremely good deal as far as the prosecution was concerned. For three months Sharir fed the Federal investigators with most valuable information
      concerning the Jewish laundering industry. The information included names, methods of operation, codes, and bank accounts. Sharir led them to the exposure
      of what is termed the new "cocaine triangle".
      His information led to the incrimination of more than 35 Jewish launderers, the capture of $10 million and the breakup of numerous Jewish laundering rings.
      Among others, Sharir incriminated the biggest laundering shark in the history of the US, Stephan Scorkia. The information given by Sharir, who testified at his
      trial, directly led to his conviction. Scorkia was charged with laundering $300 million, and was sentenced to 660 years' imprisonment.
      Sharir is now enrolled in the US witness protection program. He lives under an assumed identity, has been released on bail, travels under heavy security
      between New York, Rhode Island, Arizona and other states, testifies in criminal trials and goes on.
      His wife Miryam divorced him shortly after the affair erupted. She refuses to comment on the matter and told the Daily News: "I have no intention of talking. I
      divorced Aharon in order to distance myself from him and from his friends, and that is exactly what I am doing."
      Sharir was directly responsible for the flight of at least 35 Colombians from the US back to Colombia. One of the escapees was Duvan Arbolda, one of the
      Kali cartel's major launderers. Arbolda was charged in a Manhattan court of laundering on a vast scale, following Sliarir's testimony. Afler he completes his
      testifying, Sharir himself will stand trial.
      The prosecution will agree to a very low sentence, but this does not improve his chances of survival. "At present, Aharon Sharir heads the Kali cartel's
      wanted list," said an American customs official. Charges have also been served against Lihu Ichilov, Sharir's partner. However, Ichilov fled to Israel on the
      eve of his trial, in January 199 1. That was the period of the Gulf War and the judge, Richard Owen, who tried Ichilov in absentia, said: "Mr. Ichilov
      apparently prefers to face the horror of Scud missiles falling on Israel than the American justice system."
      Note 1. The Satmar Hassidic sect fiercely opposes Zionism. The present rabbi's uncle and predecessor (the position of a rabbi among the Hassids is limited
      to the members of "the sacred family"), Yoel Taitelbaum, had published learned books in which Zionism was described as an invention of Satan, Israeli
      victories (especially the one in the Six Day War) were attributed solely to the direct help given to the Israeli army, while the Holocaust was being "justified" as
      the Divine punishment of the Jews for the sin of some of them becoming Zionists. The present rabbi, although formally continuing the teachings of his uncle,
      has the most amicable relations with the Israeli government.

      Calendar of Conspiracy: A Chronology of Anti-Government Extremist Criminal
      Activity, January to June 1997
      A Militia Watchdog Special Report
      INTRODUCTION
      The following is a chronology of some of the events surrounding anti-government criminal activity in the United States
      during the first half of the year 1997. It illustrates both the scope of such activity-from large-scale acts of terrorism to local
      acts of harassment and intimidation-and its geographic extent-from major cities like Los Angeles and New York to remote
      rural areas in Texas and Montana. The chronology is not comprehensive. Although all major events are included, no
      systemized reporting system exists for smaller scale events. As a result, arrests or convictions for charges such as placing
      bogus liens, impersonating a public official or committing similar offenses are considerably underrepresented in this report.
      Such activities occur with a high level of frequency across the nation. More than thirty-three states are listed in this report;
      however, incidents are occurring in every state.
      JANUARY
      January 2, South Dakota: In Rapid City, South Dakota, "freeman" Bill Huseby is bound over for trial. He is charged with
      sending false documents to the Pennington county Sheriff's Office, a former judge, and a private citizen; also, three
      misdemeanor charges.
      January 6, Washington: Seattle resident Richard Frank Burton, arrested with eight other individuals last July on various
      weapons and conspiracy charges, pleads guilty in U.S. District court to one count of conspiracy and three other charges. His
      wife, Caitlin Hansen, pleads guilty to one count of destroying and concealing evidence. A third individual, Theodore Carter,
      pleads guilty to one conspiracy charge and agrees to testify against his fellow defendants. The three are part of a mixed
      group of militia members and "sovereign citizens."
      January 6, Oklahoma: Three common-law court advocates plead guilty in Tulsa, Oklahoma, to a federal conspiracy charge.
      Kenny Moore, Colleen Moore and Wayne Gunwall had filed bogus liens on IRS agents to the amount of $7 million, and had
      issued "citizens arrest warrants" against several federal officials. The trial of another defendant, Dan Meador, begins on
      January 8.
      January 10, Oklahoma: Dan Meador is convicted of obstructing justice and illegally communicating with a member of a
      federal grand jury (see above).
      January 13, Virginia: Two Mechanicsville, VA, residents are sentenced to eighteen months in prison on tax evasion charges.
      Jerry Martin and his wife Sadie Martin, Christian Identity adherents, were "sovereign citizens" who denied the legal
      existence of the United States.
      January 16, Oregon: Common law court activist Charles Stewart, leader of a Portland, Oregon group, tries "in absentia"
      seven IRS agents at his Kangaroo court. Two weeks later, the "court" rules that four of the agents should pay fines of
      $100,000 each for seizing a Portland home. However, it was up to the man whose home was seized to collect the money.
      January 22, Georgia, North Carolina: District Attorney Albert Taylor, Jr., prosecutor for the Enotah Circuit in Georgia, requests
      and receives a "writ of non molestando" to stop a "sovereign citizen," Melvin Julius Robinson, from harassing him.
      Robinson's actions included filing a $100 million frivolous lawsuit against him and demanding that Taylor appear before the
      "Our One Supreme Court" of Franklin, North Carolina. In response, Taylor dusted off an ancient writ that probably had never
      been used in the state to restrain Robinson from using the legal process to "molest, vilify, obstruct, or hinder" the lawful
      discharge of official duties.
      January 24, Missouri: Five common law court advocates in Lincoln County, Missouri, are sentenced to two years in prison
      and a $5,000 fine, and a sixth, Dennis Logan, is sentenced to seven years in prison and a $5,000 fine. The defendants were
      charged with tampering with a judicial official-specifically, filing a $10.8 million bogus lien against a judge to force him to
      drop a speeding case involving the daughter of one of the defendants. Nine other defendants, also convicted, have yet to be
      sentenced.
      January 24, Minnesota: Michael Moeller is charged in Winona County, Minnesota, of making terroristic threats. Moeller, a
      militia sympathizer, threatened to blow up the headquarters of the state Department of Natural Resources, where he formerly
      worked.
      January 28, Wisconsin: Sally Minniecheske, the wife of Wisconsin Posse Comitatus leader Donald Minniecheskie, is
      sentenced to nine months for disorderly conduct, obstructing an officer and fleeing arrest. The charges stemmed from a
      1995 incident during a property seizure in which Minniecheskie threatened a police chief and led him on a car chase through
      Tigerton, Wisconsin. The Minniecheskies have been involved in anti-government activities in Tigerton for more than twenty
      years.
      January 30, Pennsylvania: In Philadelphia, Christian Identity minister Mark Thomas is indicted on conspiracy charges
      related to the armed robberies committed by the "Midwestern Bank Bandits," who dubbed themselves the "Aryan
      Republican Army." Also arrested is Michael Brescia. Brescia and Thomas bring the total number arrested for these robberies
      to six.
      January 30, Mississippi, Tennessee: Armed militia members from Mississippi precipitate an unexpected standoff near
      Memphis, Tennessee, when they show up to halt the eviction of two Southaven residents from their home. Local officials
      back away from the eviction and say they will pursue the matter in court some more.
      FEBRUARY
      February 6, California: Two California men are found guilty of fraud in San Jose for passing bogus checks created by the
      Montana Freemen. The jury finds Robert Young guilty of conspiracy, three counts of bank fraud, two counts of mail fraud,
      and one count of filing a false claim with the IRS. Frank Pepper is convicted on two counts of mail fraud. Two other
      defendants, Leonard Ferrier and Dawn Onalfo, had plead guilty before the trial.
      February 10, Connecticut: Nena Frankle and John Barney are arrested by local police on charges of interfering with police
      and criminal trespass, after they resisted attempts by authorities in Connecticut to take possession of their foreclosed
      residence. Frankle and Barney are members of a group of Connecticut common law court advocates and tax protesters
      which advocates such resistance.
      February 10, Ohio: Peter Langan is convicted in federal court in Columbus, Ohio, of five felonies related to 1994 armed
      robberies of banks in Columbus and Cincinnati. Langan is the leader of the "Midwestern Bank Bandits," who claimed to
      engage in armed robbery to support their revolutionary struggle.
      February 14, Missouri: The remaining seven common law court activists of the thirteen convicted earlier in Missouri receive
      their sentences: six activists sentenced to two years in prison and a seventh activist to seven years. All additionally must pay
      a $5,000 fine.
      Ca. February 15, Washington: Charles Miller and three other men are arrested in Washington on sixteen counts of
      conspiracy to defraud banks, mail fraud, and interstate transportation of stolen property. Another accomplice, Kathleen
      Cottam, was arrested earlier and pled guilty. The suspects had obtained bogus money orders from Montana Freeman
      leader LeRoy Schweitzer in 1995 and had been using them to buy cars and motor homes in Washington. Charles
      Christenson, Kurt Gilson, and Veryl Knowles were also arrested.
      February 15, Ohio, Washington, Arkansas, Montana, Utah: Near Wilmington, Ohio, Chevie and Cheyne Kehoe, two brothers
      from Washington, engage in two shootouts with local police during and following a routine traffic stop. A bystander is
      wounded. The Kehoes, Christian Identity adherents with ties to Aryan Nations and other white supremacist groups, avoid an
      intensive manhunt and vanish along with their families. Their mobile home is later found near Casper, Wyoming. Chevie
      Kehoe is wanted for questioning in connection with the murders of an Arkansas gun dealer with ties to the militia movement,
      and his family.
      February 18, Pennsylvania: Pennsylvania Aryan Nations leader Mark Thomas pleads guilty to plotting seven bank robberies
      and using the cash to further the cause of white supremacy in connection with the Midwestern Bank Bandits.
      February 20, Georgia: Three Georgia militia members receive stiff sentences for their roles in a conspiracy to build pipe
      bombs for use against the federal government. Bob Starr is given 8 years, one month; while James McCranie and Troy
      Spain are sentenced to six S years in prison each.
      February 20, Minnesota: Three Minnesota residents receive convictions for attempting to pass bogus checks obtained from
      the Montana Freemen. Marilyn Kerkvliet and Robert Leffler are convicted of eight counts of mail fraud and passing
      counterfeit checks each. Ronald Kerkvliet is convicted of a single count of mail fraud.
      February 21, Montana, North Carolina: The first conviction arrives for members of the Montana Freemen, who held off
      authorities for 81 days in the spring of 1996. Russell Landers and an associate, James Vincent Wells, are convicted of seven
      and twelve federal fraud and conspiracy counts, respectively, ending a trial marked by combative behavior by Landers. The
      two used bogus money orders to purchase vehicles to drive back to Montana.
      February 21, Washington: Supporters of the Washington militia/freemen defendants on trial in Seattle file a $1.76 billion lien
      against the judge, John Coughenour, and five prosecutors.
      February 24, Texas: Local authorities in Texas issue an arrest warrant for Rick McLaren, leader of the secessionist
      common-law group, "The Republic of Texas," after McLaren failed to appear for a preliminary hearing on a 1995 burglary
      charge. However, authorities take no steps to arrest McLaren, who is barricaded in a remote West Texas settlement.
      February 28, Washington: The Washington militia/freemen explosives conspiracy case ends in a mistrial. The mistrial is
      declared on federal conspiracy charges against seven people, while four defendants are convicted of weapons charges.
      Washington State Militia founder John Pitner is convicted of possession and transfer of machine guns. John Lloyd Kirk and
      Marlin Lane Mack is convicted of possession of unregistered destructive device. Gary Marvin Kuehnoel is convicted of
      possession of a machine gun. Jururs can not reach verdicts on additional weapons charges against Kirk and his wife Judy

      March 21, Ohio: The FBI and ATF jointly post a $60,000 reward for information leading to the arrests of Aryan Nations
      members Cheyne and Chevie Kehoe for shooting at police officers in Ohio in February. The Kehoe brothers are thought to
      have fled back to their Spokane area origins.
      March 21, Alabama: Alabama Court of Criminal Appeals unanimously affirms the capital murder conviction of a "patriot,"
      George Sibley, Jr., found guilty in the 1993 shooting death of an Opelika police officer. His common-law wife, Linda Lyon
      Block, is also on death row for the same offense.
