Macdonald --- China Moves Forces into Afghanistan Source: DEBKAfile <http://www.debka.com/> From: "Macdonald Stainsby" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: [L-I] China Moves Forces into Afghanistan Date: Tue, 9 Oct 2001 Dear Mark says (on Rad Green) that Debka file is Israeli Mossad. If such is true, then the whole post makes a little more sense.... and is full of s^&t. ################ The story on Islamic Chinese troops seems to be another hoax. Nevertheless, see these news: The Jerusalem Post 18 Tishri 5762 Friday October 5, 2001 Israel supplies US with Central Asia intelligence By Janine Zacharia WASHINGTON (October 5) - Israel has been supplying the US with an extraordinary amount of behind-the-scenes intelligence assistance and security advice since the September 11 terrorist attacks, despite demands from Arab states that it not be permitted to participate in a coalition against terrorism. Since the attacks, Israel has provided the US with information about the suspected hijackers. And the US has sought intelligence assistance from Israel particularly regarding Central Asia, where Israel has a stronger foothold. Israel has better intelligence and stronger relations with countries such as Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan, places that could prove crucial in any offensive against Osama bin Laden's al-Qaida network based in Afghanistan. Israel has absorbed large emigrant populations from those countries. And because of its proximity to enemies such as Iran, Israel has devoted intelligence resources there, both human and electronic. A year ago the Uzbek government, in a sign of partnership, appealed to Israel for aid in combating the rise of Islamic violence in the region. On the security front, as the US grows ever more fearful of a possible biological or chemical attack, US officials have been counseling with their Israeli counterparts on how Israel secures its water and food supplies against sabotage, sources familiar with the discussions say. And yesterday four security experts from El Al met quietly with administration officials in Washington. The experts were invited to testify before the House Transportation and Senate Transportation aviation subcommittees on Wednesday about El Al security measures.
