Press ReleaseIsrael / Middle-East ADL Identifies Top 10 Anti-Israel
Groups In America
New York, NY, October 14, 2010 … They organize mass demonstrations
featuring extreme anti-Israel and anti-Zionist messages. They seek to
undermine the Jewish state by spreading malicious propaganda. They
pursue boycott, divestment and sanctions campaigns against Israel.
They are the 10 most influential and active anti-Israel groups in the
United States, according to the Anti-Defamation League (ADL).
"While there are hundreds of groups that organize and participate in
various anti-Israel activities, we have identified the largest and
most well-coordinated anti-Israel groups," said Abraham H. Foxman, ADL
National Director. "These groups are not promoting peace, they are
spreading propaganda to assault Israel's legitimacy. We want to
Americans to know who these groups are and what it is they really
stand for, which is to delegitimize the Jewish state."
In a new online report, ADL takes a close look at the top 10 anti-
Israel groups operating in the U.S. The League examines the dynamics
of the U.S. anti-Israel movement and the ability of the most prominent
groups to organize events, attract supporters and forge relationships
with other like-minded organizations.
The Top 10 Anti-Israel Groups, as identified by ADL, are:
• Act Now to Stop War and End Racism (ANSWER)
• Al-Awda
• Council on American-Islamic Relations
• Friends of Sabeel-North America
• If Americans Knew
• International Solidarity Movement
• Jewish Voice for Peace
• Muslim American Society
• Students for Justice in Palestine
• US Campaign to End the Israeli Occupation
"These groups demonize Israel through various public campaigns. Their
messages are one-sided and fail to take the complexity of the Israeli-
Palestinian conflict into account," said Mr. Foxman. "They unfairly
attack Israel while ignoring Palestinian terrorism and incitement.
They apply a different standard to Israel than other countries,
condemning it for implementing policies to protect its citizens."

Please also let us know about fake groups, i.e. so-called
Messy an eck (they spell it somewhat differently) "Jews",
which are groups which pose as Jews so that they can convert
Jews to their own religion. Some of those groups
even hold fake "Jewish Singles" events to attract Jews
to them so that they can attempt to convert them.

The statement below is from Jews for Judaism
"About Jews for Judaism: Our Challenge and Mission: The Challenge
The Challenge of Missionaries and Cults
Jews for Judaism is the only international, full-time counter-
missionary,
counter-cult, educational, outreach and counseling organization
dedicated to
countering the multi-million-dollar efforts of deceptive missionary
and cult
groups that target the Jewish community for conversion.
Here, from the Jews for Judaism counter-missionary Handbook, The
Response to
Jewish Missionaries, is a look at the challenge facing the Jewish
Community.
According to recent Gallup and Harris polls, there are over 70
million "born
again" Christians in North America, many of whom are convinced that
in order for
Jesus to return, the Jewish people must first be converted to
Christianity.
Christian denominations such as the Southern Baptist Convention --
which passed
a resolution in 1996 targeting Jews for conversion -- and the
Assemblies of G-d,
as well as countless other Christian groups worldwide, contribute
more than $250
million annually to aggressively evangelize Jews. These evangelical
Christians
have established special "Hebrew Christian synagogues" to attract
Jews. Such
"synagogues" have grown in number from 20 to over 400 in the last
twenty years.
Missionaries convince their recruits that they are not complete as
Jews until
they accept Jesus as the Messiah, and that a Jew retains his or her
Jewish
identity after converting to Christianity. According to a 1990
Council of Jewish
Federations population study, over 600,000 Jews in North America
alone identify
with some type of Christianity. Over the past 25 years, more than
275,000 Jews
worldwide have been converted specifically by missionaries who use
deceptive
tactics that masquerade Christian beliefs in the guise of Judaism.
The Gospel is
preached by "Messianic rabbis" wearing yarmulkas (skullcaps) and
talleisim
(prayer shawls) at "Shabbat" and "High Holiday" services.
These "Hebrew
Christians" promote their Christian faith by using a new
name: "Messianic
Judaism."
These groups have influenced evangelical churches to adopt the same
deceptive
techniques. For the first time in history, Jews are welcomed into the
church and
told that they can retain their Jewish identity. Church members then
introduce
the Jew to "someone Jewish who has accepted the Lord." This method of
proselytizing increases the number of contact people, who serve as
conduits to
the "Hebrew Christian" missionaries, to include Christian associates
at work, at
school and in social settings.In addition, new programs such as the
$16-million
theme park in Orlando, Florida, called The Holy Land Experience, and
traveling
conferences like "To the Jew First in the New Millennium" are virtual
training
grounds to teach Christians how to effectively evangelize their Jewish
acquaintances.
Contrary to popular perception, it is not only emotionally unstable
Jews who
fall prey to the missionaries' efforts; in fact, all Jews are
susceptible.
Missionaries often target college campuses, hospitals, drug
rehabilitation
programs, seniors' residences, and shopping malls in Jewish
neighborhoods, as
well as the Israeli community, Soviet immigrants and intermarried
couples. They
deliberately misquote, mistranslate and misinterpret Jewish
scriptures and
rabbinical texts in an attempt to "prove" that Jesus was both the
Jewish Messiah
and G-d. Their delegitimization of Judaism, in concert with their
misleading
exploitation of Jewish symbols, religious artifacts and even
traditional music,
serve to confuse the potential convert, making him or her more
vulnerable.
These missionary groups -- over 900 in North America alone -- are
active
worldwide, and can be found in almost every Jewish population center.
Several
governing bodies in this movement have considerable political clout;
one has
even been granted "observer" status at the United Nations. Several
groups have
founded "Messia-nic Jewish" day schools for children and "yeshivot"
where they
produce ordained "Messianic rabbis." There are over 100 "Messianic
congregations" in Israel, and over 38 in the former Soviet Union.
These groups
prey almost exclusively upon uneducated, unaffiliated and alienated
Jews."(Meshugeneh means crazy in Yiddish (so-called Messy an eck Jews,
they spell it
somewhat differently, are not really Jews, they are Xtians
pretending to be Jews
to convert Jews to their Xtian religion.)

Democrats' Platform for Revolution
By John Perazzo
FrontPageMagazine.com | Monday, May 05, 2008
http://www.pointofview.net/site/News2?id=5537
Obama was trained by the Alinsky-founded Industrial Areas Foundation
(IAF) in Chicago and worked for an affiliate of the Gamaliel
Foundation, whose modus operandi for the creation of "a more just and
democratic society" is rooted firmly in the Alinsky method. As The
Nation magazine puts it, "Obama worked in the organizing tradition of
Saul Alinsky, who made Chicago the birthplace of modern community
organizing.…" In fact, for several years Obama himself taught
workshops on the Alinsky method.....A People's Organization, said
Alinsky, can build a wide-based membership only if it focuses on
multiple issues ...
One example of such an organization today is the International Action
Center (IAC), founded by Ramsey Clark and staffed by members of the
Marxist-Leninist Workers World Party. To broadcast the notion of
American evil as widely as possible, IAC has created numerous "faces"
for itself, each one serving as a unique portal through which the
organization can reach a portion of the public. But in the final
analysis, there is no difference between any of these nominally
distinct groups, among which are International ANSWER, the Korea
Truth Commission, No Draft No Way, Troops Out Now, Activist San
Diego, the People's Video Network, the Mumia Mobilization Office, the
New York Committee to Free the Cuban Five, the National People's
Campaign, the Association of Mexican American Workers, Leftbooks, the
Rosa Parks Day headquarters, and the People's Rights Fund. These
groups are concerned with such varied issues as racism, the Iraq War,
American war crimes, the military draft, Cuban spies, the allegedly
wrongful incarceration of a convicted cop-killer, the Arab-Israeli
conflict, poor working conditions, immigrant rights, "vigilante" hate
groups, poverty, civil rights violations, economic inequality, and
globalization. And for the most part, all of these groups are
composed of the very same people.
Alinsky cautioned organizers to judiciously choose to initiate only
those battles which they stood a very good chance of winning. "The
organizer's job," he said, "is to begin to build confidence and hope
in the idea of organization and thus in the people themselves: to win
limited victories, each of which will build confidence and the
feeling that `if we can do so much with what we have now, just think
what we will be able to do when we get big and strong.' It is almost
like taking a prize-fighter up the road to the championship -- you
have to very carefully and selectively pick his opponents, knowing
full well that certain defeats would be demoralizing and end his
career."[87]
Alinsky also taught that in some cases the mission of the People's
Organization could be aided if the organizer was able to get himself
arrested and thereafter exploit the publicity he derived from the
arrest. "Jailing the revolutionary leaders and their followers,"
Alinsky said, "… strengthens immeasurably the position of the leaders
with their people by surrounding the jailed leadership with an aura
of martyrdom; it deepens the identification of the leadership with
their people." It shows, he said, "that their leadership cares so
much for them, and is so sincerely committed to the issue, that it is
willing to suffer imprisonment for the cause."[88] But Alinsky
stipulated that organizers should seek to be jailed only for a short
duration (from one day to two months); longer terms of incarceration,
he said, have a tendency to fall from public consciousness and to be
forgotten.[89]
During the 1960s Alinsky was an enormously influential force in
American life....Though Alinsky died in 1972, his legacy has lived on
as a staple of leftist method, a veritable blueprint for revolution --
to which both Democratic presidential candidates, who are his
disciples and protégés, refer euphemistically as "change."

Kerry Lawyer Represented Saddam,Arafat,Nazi,Terrorists,LaRouche
"Ramsey Clark Endorses John Kerry
By Cliff Kincaid
March 1, 2004
One of the leading "America bashers" on the political scene today
has endorsed John Kerry for president....Ramsey Clark
http://www.law.harvard.edu/students/orgs/forum/rclark.JPG said he's
voting for Kerry because he would take U.S. foreign policy in a new
direction...."I think John Kerry is a great human being," Clark told
this reporter. "I knew him when he was—I call a youngster—in his
20s...." Clark has been labeled a "traitor" for his habit of showing
up in countries hostile to the U.S. A lawyer, he has represented
accused terrorists and war criminals.Clark served as LBJ's Attorney
General in the 1960s and then participated in the anti-Vietnam War
movement in the early 1970s with Kerry, just back from the war, who
accused his fellow soldiers of war crimes and genocide. Clark was a
lawyer for Vietnam Veterans Against the War, and Kerry was a major
leader of the group. A photograph at the time shows Clark on the
same stage with Kerry. Clark and Kerry were strongly against the
Reagan policy of supporting the anti-communist "Contra" freedom
fighters in Nicaragua. The policy, though opposed by a liberal
Congress, resulted in the holding of elections in Nicaragua, the
electoral defeat of the Communist Sandinistas, and an end to the
communist insurgency in El Salvador.More recently, Clark has been
collaborating with the communist Workers World Party (WWP) in
staging "anti-war" demonstrations against U.S. Iraq policy. Brian
Becker, a member of the WWP secretariat, helped organize those
protests...Cliff Kincaid is Editor of the AIM Report."

since
accused the United States of war crimes in that conflict.... He
visited with
Saddam Hussein over the weekend, as he has done several times before,

On September 17th, 2001 Dan Rather appeared with David Letterman on

On September 18th, 2001 the first of the anthrax letters was mailed.
There are
those who speculate that the real target of the anthrax attacks was
Dan Rather,
who was perhaps a "man who knew too much", about too many things
from the
Kennedy assassination in 1963 to Saddam Hussein, to Afghanistan, and
who
knows what else. Did Saddam Hussein see a tape of Dan Rather's
seeming nervous breakdown about 9/11 on September 17th, 2001 on
David Letterman's show and
decide to order the anthrax attack on Dan Rather to close Dan
Rather's mouth
forever? We do not know. We have no forged or fabricated documents to
back up such a theory. But the theory is out there.

Iraq behind US anthrax outbreaks
Britain's GPs put on full alert over deadly disease War on
Terrorism: Observer special
David Rose and Ed Vulliamy, New York
Sunday October 14, 2001 The Observer
American investigators probing anthrax outbreaks in Florida and New
York believe they have all the hallmarks of a terrorist attack - and
have named Iraq as prime suspect as the source of the deadly
spores.Their inquiries are adding to what US hawks say is a growing
mass of evidence that Saddam Hussein was involved *** with the 11
September hijackers....Leading US intelligence
sources, involved with both the CIA and the Defence Department, told
The Observer that the 'giveaway' which suggests a state sponsor for
the anthrax cases is that the victims in Florida were afflicted with
the airborne form of the disease. 'Making anthrax, on its own, isn't
so difficult,' one senior US intelligence source said. 'But it only
begins to become effective as a biological weapon if they can be made
the right size to breathe in. If you can't get airborne infectivity,
you can't use it as a weapon. That is extremely difficult. There is
very little leeway. Most spores are either too big to be suspended in
air, or too small to lodge on the lining of the lungs.' As claims
about an Iraqi link grew, senior health officials in Britain revealed
they warned all the country's GPs last week to be vigilant about the
disease. 'I think we have to be prepared to think the unthinkable,'
said the Government's Chief Medical Officer, Dr Liam Donaldson. The
Department of Health confirmed the Government is conducting an urgent
review of Britain's ability to cope with chemical or biological
attacks. It also emerged last night that three people who worked in
the Florida buildings at the centre of anthrax scares are now in the
UK and undergoing tests for the disease. ***In liquid form, anthrax
is
useless - droplets would fall to the ground, rather than staying
suspended in the air to be breathed by victims. Making powder needs
repeated washings in huge centrifuges, followed by intensive drying,
which requires sealed environments. The technology would cost
millions. US intelligence believes Iraq has the technology and
supplies of anthrax suitable for terrorist use. 'They aren't making
this stuff in caves in Afghanistan,' the CIA source said. 'This is
prima facie evidence of the involvement of a state intelligence
agency. Maybe Iran has the capability. But it doesn't look likely
politically. That leaves Iraq.' Scientists investigating the attacks
say the bacteria used is similar to the 'Ames strain' of anthrax
originally cultivated at Iowa State University in the 1950s and later
given to labs throughout the world, including Iraq. According to
sources in the Bush administration, investigators are talking to
Egyptian authorities who say members of the al-Qaida network,
detained
and interrogated in Cairo, had obtained phials of anthrax in the
Czech
Republic. Last autumn Mohamed Atta is said by US intelligence
officials to have met in Prague an agent from Iraqi intelligence
called Ahmed Samir al-Ahani, a former consul later expelled by the
Czechs for activities not compatible with his diplomatic mission.The
Czechs are also examining the possibility that Atta met a former
director of Saddam's external secret services, Farouk Hijazi, at a
second meeting in the spring. Hijazi is known to have met Bin Laden.
It was confirmed yesterday that Jim Woolsey, CIA director from1993 to
1996, recently visited London"

BLITZER: That's Osama bin Laden's group. Now you also have some
new information, David, about Mohamed Atta. He's the suspected
ringleader of the September 11th hijackings.
ENSOR: Well, that's right. As you know, he was one of the suicide
hijackers who died on September 11th on one of those aircraft. And we
had previously reported on September 19th that he met with an Iraqi
intelligence official somewhere in Europe. Well, I'm now able to tell
you, based on information from U.S. sources, he met not once but
twice

once

Iraq and Saddam Hussein have been working to develop chemical and

used them against the Iranians during their war. Saddam really ought

"Ex-U.N. weapons inspector: Possible
Iraq-anthrax link
October 15, 2001 NEW YORK (CNN) -- Richard Butler, the former U.N.
weapons inspector,
pointed Monday to a possible Iraq connection to the recent anthrax
mailings, saying he did not believe
terrorist groups could have made the deadly bacteria. ***"What we've
got to be certain about above
all is whether it came from a country supporting these terrorists as
a
matter of policy, such as Iraq, which we know has made this stuff,"
Butler said. "And there's a credible report, ***, that they may
indeed
have given anthrax to exactly the group that did the World Trade
Center." Mohamed Atta-one of the suspected suicide hijackers-had two
meetings with Iraqi intelligence officers in Prague, Czech Republic,
U.S. and Czech officials told CNN.*** Butler *** said Egyptian
authorities believe that Iraq could have handed some anthrax over to
one of the suspected terrorists in the September 11 attacks. "It's
possible that many months ago anthrax, a small quantity of it, was
handed over in Prague to Mohamed Atta ... and the person who handed
it
over in Prague was an Iraqi," Butler said. "If that proves to be
true,
there's a connection. ***Butler, however, did mention something that
would worry him-an outbreak of smallpox, perhaps caused by a
terrorist
act. "I'd be much more concerned about smallpox because it's
contagious," Butler
said. "And there is reason to think that Iraq, for example, and maybe
some others
were in the past attempting to bring back smallpox for use as a
biological weapon."

The Formation of the Clark Panel: More of the Secret Team at Work? By
Lisa Pease The Clark Panel was the medical panel convened almost
immediately after Ramsey Clark had been approved for his appointment

rest the growing doubts caused by the exposures of Mark Lane, Harold
Weisberg, other researchers and even in late 1966, LIFE magazine
itself. All of the above talked about the evidence of conspiracy, and
the implication is that the medical evidence would either show
conspiracy, or else, signs of tampering. What brought it to a crux
was
Jim Garrison's all-out investigation of the assassination, which, in
1967, was making official story proponents very nervous. One of the
key questions raised by the New Orleans DA was this: Why hadn't the
Warren Commission members examined the autopsy photographs and
X-rays?"

Who is Dan Rather?
"With the Zapruder film, came the frame by frame voice account of
the assassination. It was the voice of an obscure KRLD-TV Dallas
news reporter as the only journalist allowed to view the Zapruder
film and report on it to the public. The voice was that of Dan
Rather, and his frame by frame account of the head shot was that "
the bullet clearly entered the back of the President's head as then
the President's head lurched FORWARD with considerable force". His
account was precisely the opposite of what the film clearly showed,
and Dan Rather was lying to the public and the government was
sanctioning this!! We all three agreed that fall evening in 1971,
that Dan Rather was "going places". He did not disappoint us."
Source:
http://www.jfk-info.com/discus/messages/23/47.html
"Dan Rather was spawned Halloween day, 1931, in Wharton, Texas. He
was the CBS news reporter covering the Kennedy visit to Dallas on
November 22, 1963. At the time, Rather was widely praised for his
coverage of the assassination. However, over the years, as elements
of the truth have been discovered, Rather's reporting has been
revealed to be less than truthful. Consider this: Rather was the
only newsman present at a private screening of the Zapruder film the
day after the assassination. He described what was in the film over
nationwide radio and was fairly accurate until he described the
fatal head shot. Rather stated Kennedy's head "went forward with
considerable violence," the exact opposite of what is in the film.
Several months later, Rather was promoted to White House
correspondent for CBS and by the 1980s, he was chief news anchorman.
Now, since the film was immediately bought from Abraham Zapruder by
Time-Life, and withheld from public viewing until 1975, that means
for over a full decade, Rather's bogus account of the fatal head
shot was taken as the gospel truth.
Another questionable statement by Rather involves his location at
the time of the assassination. In his book, "The Camera Never
Blinks," Rather wrote how he was waiting to pick up news film from
CBS cameramen in the Presidential motorcade. He wrote he was
standing on the west side of the Triple Underpass and missed
witnessing the assassination by only a few yards. However, recently
discovered film footage of the west side of the underpass has now
become public. This film plus still photographs show the Kennedy
limousine speeding through the underpass and on to Stemmons Freeway--
but no sign of Dan Rather.
Why did Rather lie about the fatal head shot? Why did Rather lie
about his whereabouts at the time of the assassination?"

Saddam Hussein and Ramsey Clark
Iraq's Hussein won't offer condolences to Bush
September 26, 2001
BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) -- Iraqi President
Saddam Hussein said Wednesday
he will not offer condolences to U.S.
President George W. Bush for
those
killed in terror attacks because the
United States is "launching a war
on us"
and his condolences would be
hypocritical.
In a meeting with a representative of
Russian President Vladimir
Putin, Hussein
said, "Bush wants us to pay our condolences, but if I were to do that
I would not be respecting my people. Bush is the president of a state
that is launching a war on us ... in a mean, terroristic manner.
"And if I offered condolences to its president, this would be
hypocrisy, and we are not hypocrites. Since offering condolences is a
kind of courtesy between states, but we offered condolences to small

Ex-Atty. General Would Aid Saddam Defense
Fri Dec 19,10:26 PM ET
By JENNIFER C. KERR, Associated Press Writer
WASHINGTON - Former U.S. Attorney General Ramsey Clark said Friday
that he would be willing to provide legal counsel to Saddam Hussein
(news - web sites) if the ousted Iraqi leader requested Clark's
assistance.
"In his Texas days, the politically ambitious elder Clark was
cultivated as a useful connection by New Orleans Mafia kingpin Carlos
Marcello, and many feared Clark's new job would afford organized
crime
access to higher levels of power. AG Clark was repeatedly mired in
corruption scandals.*** In 1947, after he had four convicted Chicago
mob bosses sprung from prison before their terms were complete,
Congress appointed a committee to investigate-and was effectively
road
blocked by Tom's refusal to hand over parole records. "Roselli was a
Las Vegas based Mafia figure and a link in the CIA-Mafia chain. He
had
close ties to three Mafia bosses associated with the Kennedy
assassination: Sam Giancana of Chicago, Santos Trafficante of
Florida,
and Carlos Marcello of New Orleans. According to columnist Jack
Anderson, Roselli told him that mob leaders had ordered Jack Ruby to
kill Lee Harvey Oswald because they were afraid he might crack and
reveal their part in the conspiracy to kill President Kennedy. In
July
1976, shortly before Roselli was to be questioned by the Senate
Intelligence Committee, his body was discovered floating in
Dumfoundling Bay in Miami. He had been strangled and stabbed; his
legs
had been sawed off and stuffed into an empty oil drum along with the
rest of his body. It is believed that Roselli was killed by someone
working for Trafficante because he was talking too much about the
Kennedy assassination. Conspiracy" "Crime and Cover-Up (p. 44): Here
Scott discusses links between Ruby, Roselli, and Ramsey Clark. "One
of
Ruby's close personal friends' and character witnesses for his liquor
license was Hal Collins (22 H 928), brother-in-law of prominent local
attorney Robert L. Clark, the brother and uncle respectively of U.S.
Attorneys General Tom and Ramsey Clark (CD 4.371)Robert L. Clark and
his law partner Maury Hughes. arranged the...parole in 1947 of John
Roselli."

was delighted. "Did you hear the good news They killed the

reporter, on the day Ruby killed Oswald, "Bobby Kennedy's just
another

aside, saying: "I told you they could do it. I'll never forget what
Carlos and Santo did for me." Later, in New Orleans, Marcello, who
was
waiting for approval of a huge Teamsters pension fund loan, told
Ragano, "When you see Jimmy, you tell him he owes me, and he owes me
big." He got his loan. Ragano's conclusion: "They had actually acted
on the message I had delivered to them from Jimmy and now they wanted
payoffs from him." Ragano says Trafficante told him, in a

Hamas Endorses Obama
Thursday, April 17, 2008 10:21 AM"
The item directly below is excerpted from:The Times of India
"Republican McCain says Obama is the candidate of Hamas
26 Apr 2008, 0650 hrs IST,AFP
WASHINGTON: Republican John McCain took a shot at Democratic
presidential hopeful Barack Obama on Friday, saying he was the
candidate for the Palestinian Islamist movement Hamas.
"I think it's very clear who Hamas wants to be the next president of
the United States," said McCain, his party's presumptive presidential
nominee, in a conversation with conservative bloggers.
According to a transcript posted on the website of the Weekly
Standard magazine, he said: "I think that people should understand
that I will be Hamas's worst nightmare ... If Senator Obama is
favored by Hamas I think people can make judgments accordingly."

Little Rock, Arkansas "It is just a fact that apparently the North
American spokesperson is endorsing Senator Obama. People can make
their own judgment from that," McCain said at a media availability
today, referring to comments made by Ahmed Yousef, a top Hamas
adviser Yousef told WABC Radio on April 13 that, "we like Mr. Obama,
and we hope that he will win the election. I do believe he is like
John Kennedy, a great man with a great principle."
He also took aim at Obama on foreign policy, attacking him for his
intention to hold diplomatic talks with Cuban and Iranian dictators,
among other issues.
"Those are issues and I will continue to talk about them, and they're
important to the future of this nation because…he is very lacking in
experience on national security issues. And I disgree with him from
wanting to sit down with the President of Iran, to sit down with Raul
Castro, to wanting to set a date to leave Iraq immediately," McCain
said. "So anybody who believes that questioning his judgment on
national security issues is not a big issue, as far as the judgment
of the American people are concerned, obviously don't share my view
about it's importance."
Obama and the Jews
marc zell , THE JERUSALEM POST Feb. 21, 2008
Less than two weeks before the critical primary elections in Ohio and
Texas, Democratic voters have made it very clear: Barack Hussein
Obama is for real.
Leading in the popular votes cast, delegates pledged and total
delegates (meaning principally the back-room machers euphemistically
referred to as "superdelegates"), Obama has a decent chance to become
the 2008 Democratic candidate for President of the United States.
Obama has become a rallying point for millions of disgruntled voters
who yearn for a new style of politics in the world's greatest
democracy.
Since the Republican race is all but over and Senator John McCain
will likely win the nomination of his party in Minneapolis in early
September, it is not idle speculation to consider an Obama-McCain
contest in the November general election. Such a contest has
potentially enormous consequences for Israel and the Jews.
It is no secret that Obama's candidacy has been supported financially
and politically by many prominent members of the American Jewish
community. Even previously outspoken Clinton-supporting spokespersons
for Democrats Abroad here in Israel have been hedging their bets
recently in articles and interviews, suggesting that an Obama
Administration would augur well for Israel. Incredibly, citing
unenthusiastic, canned pro-Israel campaign statements, these dyed-in-
the-wool Democratic sycophants would urge Jewish voters to cast their
fate and Israel's with Obama rather than with the Republican
candidate, McCain.
With all due deference to the Obama celebrity supporters like Steven
Spielberg and George Soros, can Jews herein Israel and in America and
other friends of Israel risk a vote for Obama in November? A quick
look at the facts should switch on a big red light in most peoples'
minds.
First and foremost among the considerations that should trouble
friends of Israel is the foreign policy team Obama has selected to
advise him. The composition of a candidate's advisory panel is
usually a very good indicator of where the candidate will come out on
the issues if elected.
This was the test this writer applied to George W. Bush in 2000 at a
time when most pundits in Israel and in the Jewish community
predicted that his Middle East policy would be a carbon copy of his
father's, meaning trouble for Israel. But Bush, the son, had selected
a blue-ribbon team of pragmatic and conservative advisors whose views
on the Middle East were markedly pro-Israel and pro-democracy.
Subsequently, the W. Bush Era became among the closest allies of
Israel in her 60-year history.
The opposite is the case with the Obama team. Headed up by Jimmy
Carter's ("Israel is an apartheid state") national security advisor,
Zbigniew Brzezinski, Obama's team includes such problematic figures
as Anthony Lake, Robert O. Malley and Susan Rice.
One commentator, citing an article by the staunchly left-wing Israeli
newspaper, Haaretz, has noted that an Obama presidency including a
foreign policy team that included the foregoing and their ideological
soul-mates, "would likely have an approach towards Israel radically
at odds with those of previous Presidents (both Republican and
Democrat)" and is the candidate apt to be "least supportive" of
Israel.
Brzezinski has been disseminating vitriol about Israel for three
decades and recently publicly defended the Walt-Mearsheimer study
which concluded that US policy towards Israel was the result of
Jewish pressure and inconsistent with American interests. More
recently Brzezinski called for the US to initiate dialogue with
Hamas, described Israel's action in the Second Lebanon War as a
killing campaign against civilian hostages and earlier this month
made a trip to confer with Syria's President Assad, ostensibly
unbeknownst to the Obama campaign.
Robert O. Malley, another former Carter Administration diplomat and
President Clinton's special advisor on Arab-Israeli affairs, is an
unabashed advocate for the Palestinians, co-authoring a spate of anti-
Israel propaganda with former Arafat advisor, Hussein Agha, including
a tract that blames Israel for the failure of the 2000 Camp David
talks and another piece which blames the Bush Administration for
continuing Israeli-Palestinian strife.
And then there is Susan Rice, foreign policy advisor to the ill-fated
John Kerry presidential campaign in 2004, where she concocted the
idea of solving the Middle East problem by appointing none other than
Jimmy Carter and James Baker as negotiators, an idea which was later
repudiated by her own boss as being unbalanced against Israel. Nor
are these the only "bad apples" in Obama's foreign policy bin…
Another problematic indicator is candidate's close association with
Jeremiah Wright, Jr., pastor of the Trinity United Community Church
(a member of the United Church for Christ, which itself has been
rebuked for anti-Israel bias), who is well known for his virulent
anti-Israel remarks, including a call for a divestment campaign
against Israel for the "injustice and the racism under which the
Palestinians have lived because of Zionism."
Nor should bring much solace to Jewish voters and friends of Israel
that Reverend Wright counts among his closest friends, the nefarious
anti-Semite, Louis Farrakhan for whom Judaism is a "gutter religion"
and Jews are "bloodsuckers." Obama could have picked any one of
hundreds of churches in Chicago's South Side; he picked Jeremiah
Wright's parsonage, which awarded Farrakhan with the Jeremiah Wright
Lifetime Achievement Trumpeteer Award in 2007. And Wright's church is
the single largest beneficiary of Obama's charitable giving. Even
Jewish columnist Richard Cohen of the Washington Post felt compelled
to ask Obama to clarify his relationship with these anti-Jewish and
anti-Israel community leaders, questioning why Obama has stayed
steadfast in his allegiance to Pastor Wright over the years.
Obama is only a first-term senator and has therefore only
participated in a handful of votes that bear upon Israel and the
Middle East. He also has a penchant for missing controversial votes
where he would have to put his personal policies in the public
record. However, his public statements on a variety of issues present
a number of troubling issues for Jews and friends of Israel. Here are
a few samples:
1)Obama openly advocates outreach toward and diplomatic engagement of
Iran even though Iran has recently referred to Israel as a "filthy
bacteria" and has repeatedly called for the annihilation of the
Jewish State, including recent hints that this will be accomplished
by a nuclear attack
2) "Nobody has suffered more than the Palestinian people."
3)"[T]he creation of a wall [referring to Israel's security fence]
dividing the two nations is yet another example of the neglect of
this [the Bush] Administration in brokering peace… ."
4)"I am opposed to the cynical attempt by Richard Perle and Paul
Wolfowitz and other armchair, weekend warriors in the administration
to shove their ideological agenda down our throat." [note that only
Jews are singled out despite the fact that the policies in question
were promoted by the entire Administration]
5)"Reverend [Al] Sharpton is a voice for the voiceless, and a voice
for the dispossessed. What [Reverend Sharpton's] National Action
Network has done is so important to change America, and it must be
changed from the bottom up." [National Action lead a protest against
the Jewish owner of Freddy's Fashion Mart in New York in which
picketers, sometimes joined by Sharpton himself, repeatedly screamed
epithets about "bloods---ing Jews" and "Jew bast---s."]
Obama was the only Democratic candidate who said the onus was on
Israel to change its policies vis-à-vis the Palestinians in order to
achieve peace.
Barack's problematic and unrecanted public statements and
associations raise enough serious questions that should cause Jewish
voters and friends of Israel to think twice about supporting him in
November.
But there is one other troublesome factor that voters in the
Democratic primaries have thus far failed to credit seriously, viz.:
Obama aspires to become president of the greatest democracy and still
the only remaining superpower on the planet, having held a senate
seat for less than five years and having had no previous
administrative or national experience.
While it may have suited Democratic voters to cast their votes for
Obama during the primaries as a protest against the Democratic
political establishment (much as they did in 2006 to deny (now
Independent) Senator Joseph Lieberman the nomination of his party for
the Senate seat from Connecticut), one would like to think that the
American electorate will again demonstrate its maturity and
seriousness during the General Elections in November 2008, when their
votes really count.
The Presidency in this day and age is no place for a neophyte,
however charismatic. Those of us Americans who live in the Jewish
State clearly understand what is at stake and what kind of risk Obama
poses to the region and the world. There is every reason to hope that
our compatriots in the United States and friends of Israel and
freedom generally would agree.

Probe continues into pedestrian fatality in Toms River
By MARGARET F. BONAFIDE
STAFF WRITER
December 03, 2009 00:21 AM
TOMS RIVER - Authorities are continuing to investigate Friday’s fatal
crash on Route 35, while thousands of mourners bid farewell to Mark A.
Infante, 54, a prominent Essex County attorney who was struck and
killed near his summer home in Ocean Beach.
Police Chief Michael G. Mastronardy said that the preliminary
investigation shows Infante was walking on the east shoulder of the
southbound lane of Route 35.
The initial investigation showed Infante was struck from behind by a
car driven by Crystal Vallee, 26, of West Princeton Avenue in Brick,
Mastronardy said.
Infante was en route to the Lavallette post office, about four blocks
away, when he was struck. Near the site where he was killed, a family
friend later found the letter Infante was taking to the post office,
Mastronardy said. The letter was returned to his family, Mastronardy
said.
Police said that Vallee’s car struck Infante then a second vehicle, a
Toyota Camry driven by Lawrence Geller, 76, of Philadelphia. The Camry
had minimal damage and was able to be driven after authorities cleared
the car from the scene.
Authorities are continuing to await forensic results that can help
determine the facts of Vallee’s activities before the crash and what
led to her car striking Infante, according to the Ocean County
Prosecutor’s Office. Forensic evidence that was collected is still
being analyzed. No charges have been filed against Vallee, police
said.
Vallee’s car, a 1998 Chevrolet Lumina, registered to her, has been
impounded by authorities and is the subject of a search warrant, a
standard protocol in any investigation involving a fatality, Mohel
said. Police are asking the public if they have any information
relative to the investigation to call Detective Craig Ally of the
Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office at
732-929-2027, ext. 3113 or the
township police Traffic Safety Office at
732-349-0150.

Official fatally struck in Toms River crash

November 28, 2009 20:51 PM
TOMS RIVER - A prominent Essex County attorney in line to be a state
administrative law judge was struck by a car and killed Friday while
walking along Route 35 near his summer home.
The lawyer, Mark A. Infante, 54, of West Orange, who maintains a
vacation home in Ocean Beach I, was returning from a walk to the
Lavallette Post Office when he was struck about 12:30 p.m., said Toms
River Police Chief Michael G. Mastronardy. He was pronounced dead at
the scene, police said. Infante was struck by a southbound 1998
Chevrolet Lumina driven by Christal Vallee, 26, of Brick, Mastronardy
said. Traffic safety officers, the Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office
and county Sheriff’s Department are investigating the circumstances of
the accident. Police said Infante was across about 100 feet south and
across the street from the summer home which his family said was built
by his grandfather in 1962. Infante was returning to the summer home
after walking about a half-mile to the post office, police said.
Infante, the West Orange municipal prosecutor, was nominated in June
by Gov. Jon S. Corzine for appointment as a state a administrative law
judge. The family had gathered for Thanksgiving at the home of
Infante’s brother, Martin Infante, in Point Pleasant. On Friday,
members gathered and consoled each other and spoke about the man they
admired. They recalled how Mark Infante, in charge of this year’s
turkey and ever the stickler for detail, fussed over the best brining
kit for the holiday fowl. The brined bird turned out to be the best
they had ever had, the Infantes said. He also made bread pudding, said
Lynn Infante, 53, his wife of 31 years. He loved to cook and loved
family traditions especially when it came to food. “We were friends,
best friends,” Lynn Infante said. Lynn and Mark Infante, sweethearts
since junior high school, also have two sons, Mark, 21, and Andrew,
19, both of West Orange. Infante’s daughter, Jessica, is a staff
writer for the Asbury Park Press and Times-Beacon newspapers. A Giants
fan, Mark Infante was passionate about yelling instructions to the
players through the television screen. He didn’t care that they could
not hear him, Jessica Infante said. Mark Infante was a man of many
hobbies and had an appropriate outfit to go with each adventure. He
and his wife were fans of yoga and were planning on attending yoga
class this morning. He could do a perfect tree pose, Jessica Infante
said. His enthusiasm for yoga would at times lead him to engage other
yoga followers. “He would challenge you to a yoga-off,” Jessica said.
Lynn Infante said she was just grateful that “all the children were
together in the same room” on Thanksgiving. “He was a good egg,” Lynn
Infante said of her husband. “I would tease him about it all the
time.” Mark Infante loved his summer home, a place he cherished and
spent time fishing, boating and enjoying life, his family said. “He
always had as much fun as he could,” Jessica Infante said. “He was
like a big kid with toys.”

TOMS RIVER—A West Orange man was killed when he was hit by a car near
his summer home in Toms River this afternoon.
Toms River Police Chief Michael Mastronardy said officers are
continuing their investigation into the death of the 54-year-old man,
who was not immediately identified pending notification of his family.
He said the accident occurred shortly after 12:30 p.m. while the man
was a block from his home in the Ocean Beach section of town. The
chief said the victim was walking on the shoulder of Route 35 south
when he was hit by a 1998 Chevrolet Lumina operated by Christal
Vallee, 26, of Brick Township.
The victim, who lives in West Orange, was at his Ocean Beach summer
home for the Thanksgiving holiday with family and was returning home
from mailing a letter when he was struck, Mastronardy said.
He was pronounced dead at the scene.
No summonses have been issued but the investigation is continuing, he
said.
Route 35 south was closed and traffic was detoured by the state
Department of Transportation emergency response team for four hours
during the investigation, Mastronardy said.

ID’d as driver in fatal crash, woman faces theft charge
By KATHLEEN HOPKINS
STAFF WRITER

TOMS RIVER - A 26-year-old Brick woman, identified by police as the
driver of a car that fatally struck a West Orange attorney in Toms
River last week, appeared in court Friday on an unrelated charge of
stealing from her mother.
Crystal A. Vallee of West Princeton Avenue appeared before Superior
Court Judge Wendel E. Daniels, who maintained her bail at $20,000 with
no option to gain release by posting 10 percent. Vallee pulled her
long, blonde hair in front of her face to shield it from a news
photographer for the duration of the brief court appearance. Vallee,
who has not been charged in the Nov. 27 car accident that claimed the
life of 54-year-old Mark A. Infante, was arrested Thursday and charged
with theft by deception, police said. They allege Vallee stole blank
checks from her mother and wrote them out to herself. The checks,
written and cashed between Nov. 1 and 8, totaled $1,400, police said.
Vallee has been identified as the driver of a vehicle that struck
Infante, of West Orange, while he walked near his vacation home in the
Ocean Beach I section Nov. 27. Before that, Vallee was arrested Nov.
14 in Neptune and charged with possession of crack cocaine and
possession of drug paraphernalia, a crack pipe. Daniels told Vallee
her bail will be reviewed again by Monday, and she would be notified
if there is any change to it.

Steven Vallee was arrested and charged with assaulting his wife
CAMBRIDGE MUT. FIRE INS. CO. v. VALLEE
12/31/1996
Cambridge Mutual Fire Insurance Company appeals from a summary
judgment entered in the Superior Court (Androscoggin County,
Alexander, J.) in favor of Steven M. Vallee, State Mutual Insurance
Company, and David and Renee Ouellette. Cambridge Mutual, in response
to a personal injury action brought against Vallee by the Ouellettes,
filed a complaint seeking a declaratory judgment that Vallee was not
covered under a homeowners insurance policy issued by Cambridge Mutual
to Vallee’s father. Cambridge Mutual argues the trial court erred in
deciding that Steven Vallee was a resident of his father’s household
at the time the Ouellettes’
action arose. We disagree, and affirm the judgment.
Vallee was the defendant in a
CAMBRIDGE MUT. FIRE INS. CO. v. VALLEE
12/31/1996
ling & Blasting, Inc., v. Insurance Co. of North America, 665 A.2d
671, 673 (Me. 1995) (citing Massachusetts Bay Ins. Co. v. Ferraiolo
Constr. Co., 584 A.2d 608, 609 (Me. 1990)).
Construing the term “resident” in favor of coverage, as we must,
Steven Vallee was a resident of his parents’ household within the
meaning of the homeowners policy issued by Cambridge Mutual. We are
not persuaded by its contention that the temporary nature of Vallee’s
stay, in itself, precludes residence. Faced with a court order that
prevented him from returning to his home, Vallee intended to reside
with his parents until the criminal charge against him was resolved.
The entry is:
Judgment affirmed.
All concurring.
3. “insured” means you and residents of your household who
are:
a. your relatives. . . .
The definitions section does not define or otherwise explain the
meaning of the term “resident” as contained in the definition of
“insured.”
On June 8, 1992, almost a month before Bradley Ouellette’s injuries,
Steven Vallee was arrested and charged with assaulting his wife. A
condition of his bail prohibited him from returning to their home in
Lisbon. A trial on the assault charge was scheduled for August 27,
1992. Between June 8 and his trial date (with the exception of a one-
or two-week period in August), Vallee lived at his parent’s house,
kept his clothes there, and returned there after work each day. Vallee
intended to live there until the assault charge against him was
resolved. On the date set for trial, August 27, the charge was dropped
and Vallee moved back into his Lisbon home.
On an appeal from a summary judgment, we view the evidence in the
light most favorable to the party against whom the judgment was
entered to determine whether the record supports the trial court’s
conclusion that there is no genuine issue of material fact and the
moving party is entitled to a judgment as a matter of law. Simpson v.
Central Maine Motors, Inc., 669 A.2d 1324, 1325-26 (Me. 1996).
The term “resident,” as used in the homeowners policy issued to
Bertrand Vallee, is ambiguous. The language of a contract of insurance
is ambiguous if it is reasonably susceptible of different
interpretations. Brackett v. Middlesex Ins. Co., 486 A.2d 1188, 1189
(Me. 1985) (citing Lidstone v. Green, 469 A.2d 843, 846 (Me. 1983)).
As many courts have observed, “residence” has different shades of
meaning depending on the context in which it is used. See, e.g.,
Huffman v. Huffman, 232 Neb. 742, 441 N.W.2d 899, 904 (1989) (to
“reside” and its corresponding noun “residence” are “chameleon-like
expressions”); Jamestown Mut. Ins. Co. v. Nationwide Mut. Ins. Co.,
266 N.C. 430, 146 S.E.2d 410, 414 (1966) (the words “resident,”
“residing,” and “residence” have no precise, fixed meaning applicable
to all cases); State v. Tustin, 322 S.W.2d 179, 180 (Mo.App. 1959)
(the term “residence” is “like a slippery eel”).
Despite the ambiguity inherent in the term “resident,” that term was
not clarified in the homeowners policy issued to Bertrand Vallee. We
note that Cambridge Mutual did attempt to define numerous other terms
in the policy’s definitions section. Without the benefit of
elaboration, the term “resident” is ambiguous because it is reasonably
susceptible of different interpretations. It is well-established that
ambiguities in an insurance policy are resolved against the insurer,
Allstate Ins. Co. v. Elwell, 513 A.2d 269, 271 (Me. 1986) (citing
Baybutt Constr. Corp. v. Commercial Union Ins. Co., 455 A.2d 914, 921
(Me. 1983)), and that a liability insurance policy must be construed
to resolve all ambiguities in favor of coverage, Maine Dril

Edward Arthur Vallee was arrested and charged with the crime by
Strathcona County RCMP
Alcohol may have been the root cause of two men stealing a large piece
of construction machinery and parking it on the middle of CN railway
tracks near Clover Bar Road in Strathcona County in July of 2008.
Miraculously no one was hurt. This in spite of the fact that the
11,000 kilogram machine was T-boned by an 85 car train and 13 of its
cars derailed. By sheer luck the train cleared a highly travelled
overpass before the derailment occurred.
Eighteen months later the police finally have suspects. Edward Arthur
Vallee was arrested and charged with the crime by Strathcona County
RCMP. He is currently out on bail with a court date of February 1st.
His alleged partner, Ian Douglas Gillie, has had an arrest warrant
issued with his name on it. Police are hoping that the media
attention will cause Gillie to turn himself in.
Both of the suspects face charges of theft over $5000, mischief over
$5,000 and mischief endangering life. The cost of clean-up and
related issues for the incident was over one million dollars. The
engineer, conductor, emergency responders and investigators all agree
that the damage to property and loss of human life could have been
catastrophic.

Disclosure still delaying train derail case
Posted By Michael Di Massa News Staff
Continuing arrival of disclosure has pushed back the election hearings
for two men accused of derailing a train near Sherwood Park in 2008.
Both suspects are now expected to enter pleas and elect how they wish
to be tried on June 2.
Speaking at the latest court hearing on Wednesday, Crown prosecutor
Susan Richardson said the Crown has been the one asking for the delays
since the first court appearance in February, with the expectation of
receiving additional information related to the case from the RCMP.
She said the Crown has recently received another “enormous binder of
discloser from the RCMP.”
The court case stems from a July 2008 train derailment at the Highway
16 rail overpass near Sherwood Park. Two engines and 13 of 85 railcars
derailed after the train collided with a road packer that had been
left on the tracks.
No one was injured in the collision.
It is believed by the RCMP that the road packer was stolen from a
nearby construction zone before being left on the tracks.
Edward Arthur Vallee and Ian Douglas Gillie have been charged with
mischief endangering life, mischief over $5,000 and theft over
$5,000.
Vallee was arrested on Dec. 30, 2009 and Gillie three weeks later Jan.
20.

Charges laid in ’08 train crash
Posted By Michael Di Massa News Staff
Crews work to right two engines and rail cars that came off the tracks
near Highway 16 in 2008.
Charges have been filed against two suspects in relation to the CN
train derailment that occurred east of Sherwood Park in July 2008.
Sherwood Park resident Edward Arthur Vallee, 26, has been charged with
mischief endangering life, mischief over $5,000, and theft over
$5,000.
Vallee was arrested by Strathcona County RCMP on Dec. 30, 2009, and
was subsequently released that same day after posting bail.
He is due to appear in Sherwood Park justice court on Feb. 3.
A second suspect is also being sought by the Strathcona County RCMP,
but little information is known about him, other than his name and
hometown: Ian Douglas Gillie, 26, from Edmonton.
Strathcona County RCMP media liaison Const. Wally Henry said Gillie’s
whereabouts are not known, but he is believed to be in the province.
Warrants for his arrest are in effect.
“We’re just requesting that Mr. Gillie take care of those warrants and
bring himself in,” Henry said.
Henry said the men were identified through a recent tip received from
someone from the public.
“These two people are not known to us. They weren’t on our radar as
far as tracking them down in the first instance,” Henry said.
“It was a matter of us putting all the pieces together … to make sure
everything matched up and at this point there’s enough evidence to lay
these charges.”
Shortly before 3 a.m. on July 10, 2008, a westbound CN train struck a
road packer that had been stolen from a nearby construction site and
parked on the tracks at the Highway 16 overpass east of Clover Bar
Road.
Thirteen of the 85 rail cars and two engines derailed as a result of
the collision. A fire, believed to be from a ruptured fuel tank, was
also triggered, but quickly extinguished by Strathcona County
Emergency Services.
There were two occupants in the train at the time of the collision.
They were not injured.
According to Henry, the incident cost about $1 million in damage and
emergency response.
“From that standpoint alone and the danger it caused to residents and
to motorists of Highway 16, with that overpass going right over the
highway, and the train derailing, it was definitely something that we
were anxious to get to the bottom of and try to solve,” he said. “The
potential for (the incident) to be catastrophic was definitely
there.”
It is believed the two suspects had consumed alcohol prior to their
alleged role in the incident. It is also believed that the road packer
was started by one of the suspects before being driven on the tracks,
Henry said.
There is no indication that the two suspects may have worked at the
construction site.
Members of the public who have information about the incident are
encouraged to call the Strathcona County RCMP at,
780-467-7741 or
Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-1-800-222-8477.
Crime Stoppers provides rewards of up to $2,000 for information
leading to an arrest. Anonymous tips are also eligible for the
reward.

Robert Ernest Vallee, 37, of Lockesburg was arrested in Sevier County
on two counts of indecent exposure
Man Accused of Repeated Flashing Arrested
http://www.examiner.com/Strange-a818..._Arrested.html
HORATIO, Ark. - A man accused of repeatedly exposing himself to the
same woman has been arrested after the woman took a picture of him
naked standing on a highway and called police.
The man had exposed himself five times in the last six months to the
woman as she traveled on Arkansas 41 for work. She did not know the
man, police said.
”I think he had singled her out, and she was loaded and ready for bear
the next time she saw him,” Arkansas State Police Cpl. Ray Gentry
said. “She slowed down in her car to about 40 mph and got a picture of
him.”
Robert Ernest Vallee, 37, of Lockesburg was arrested in Sevier County
on two counts of indecent exposure stemming from incidents Thursday
and Jan. 19 and one count of harassment. All are misdemeanors.
”He admitted he was the suspect in question and he had exposed himself
to her. He admitted he was nude except for a shirt covering his face,”
Gentry said.
The woman said she didn’t want to press charges.
Authorities also had gotten a complaint from a 17-year-old female of a
man exposing himself. He reportedly would stand on the side of the
highway next to his car.
Vallee was arrested Thursday after the woman called a dispatcher,
saying a man in a silver Dodge Neon had exposed himself to her,
according to a Sevier County Sheriff’s Department report. The woman
said the vehicle turned onto Arkansas 24 East and she waited for an
officer at a Horatio convenience store.
Gentry encountered the vehicle traveling east on Arkansas 24 near its
intersection with Arkansas 329 and stopped it.
”He had put his pants back on by the time I made the arrest. He was
worried I was going to charge him with reckless driving for putting
his pants back on while driving,” Gentry said.
A Sevier County deputy took the woman from the store to the traffic
stop and she identified the vehicle.
Vallee was taken to the Sevier County Jail in De Queen. He posted bond
and was released from jail Friday.

Richard Vallée, once a leading member of Quebec’s Hells Angels,
expressed some remorse for killing a government witness about to
testify against him
Angel with bloody hands
Adrian Humphreys, National Post
Sunday, Apr. 13, 2008
By Adrian Humphreys
Richard Vallée, once a leading member of Quebec’s Hells Angels,
expressed some remorse for killing a government witness about to
testify against him — he was sorry that his victim was driving a
classic Porsche sports car when he blew him up in 1993.
After a career marked by drugs, death plots, surprise acquittals and
unlikely prison escapes, Vallée will stand today in a New York
courtroom to learn whether he will spend the rest of his life in jail.
On July 28, 1993, a thunderous explosion tore apart a white, 1977
Porsche, sending both car and body parts across the large parking lot
of Bowl-Mart in Rouses Point, N.Y., about an hour’s drive south of
Montreal.
When the victim was identified as Lee Carter, 31, who worked part-time
as a bartender at the bowling lane and lived in an adjacent trailer,
New York police looked north for answers. Mr. Carter was known as the
sole witness who could finger Vallée, a founding member of the elite
Quebec Nomads chapter of the Hells Angels Motorcycle Club, in a cross-
border cocaine smuggling conspiracy.
The Nomads were the architects of the biker war that would claim more
than 160 lives.
Mr. Carter’s troubles, however, started in May, 1992, when he was
asked by an acquaintance to move cocaine into Canada.
Mr. Carter, whose namesake father said his son “just wanted to do the
right thing,” feigned interest and then called police, offering to
work for them undercover.
Working with police, Mr. Carter brought 54 kilograms of fake cocaine
into Canada and, at a Montreal motel, was introduced to “Rick” who
told him where to deliver the load. Mr. Carter later identified Vallée
as the man he met and Vallée and fellow conspirators were soon
arrested.
In March, 1993, as Vallée’s trial approached, his lawyer wrote to the
Quebec prosecutor of the case. The letter, U.S. prosecutors claim in
court documents, “intended to ferret out what witnesses or evidence
connected Vallée to the cocaine.” The lawyer was told Mr. Carter was
the only witness who was willing and able to identify Vallée.
Mr. Carter did not get a chance to give his testimony; a month before
the trial he started his Porsche on a sunny morning after it had
secretly been loaded with explosives. Because of the murder of the
only witness against Vallée, his drug charges were dismissed.
Police in Canada and the United States were fairly sure Vallée was
behind the bombing and slowly built a case against him.
A neighbour of Mr. Carter said that two days earlier a man who looked
like Vallée was asking where Mr. Carter lived. New York police
recovered the detonator used in the blast and a year later police in
Quebec seized a nearly identical detonator from a man who was visiting
Vallée’s apartment. Quebec police next searched the apartment of an
associate of Vallée’s and found a bomb-making kit with Vallée’s
fingerprints on it.
Then, in 1995, Serge Quesnel, a Hells Angels assassin, agreed to
cooperate with police. He told officers that Vallée once learned that
Quesnel’s mother’s maiden name was Carter.
“He said, ‘Is she any relation to the guy that I blew up in the
States?’ ” Quesnel said.
The subject came up a second time: “I was telling him how much the
cops hate me because I had killed a guy; they knew it but they weren’t
able to pin it on me. And he said to me, he goes, ‘Well the police
hate me even more because I killed one of their witnesses in a drug
deal in New York,’ ” Quesnel said.
“And he said that it was actually a bit of a shame because the guy was
driving a really nice car and he had to blow up the car, so it was a
shame.”
Vallée was arrested in Trois-Rivières in 1995 and charged in Mr.
Carter’s death. He was told there were two witnesses against him.
Vallée was unfazed.
“You know what happened to Carter, I blew him up and he did not come
to testify. The other two witnesses will also not come to testify,” he
told officers, according to court documents. Bold action followed
those bold words.
In 1997, Vallée concocted a prison fight that gave him a broken jaw
and he was taken to a Montreal hospital. There, two days before he was
to be sent to the United States, a gun-wielding man confronted guards
and helped Vallée flee on a motorcycle.
For years he was a fugitive, featured on both the U.S. Marshals’ Most
Wanted list and the popular TV show America’s Most Wanted.
In 2003, he again fooled police when he was stopped in Montreal for
drunk driving. After giving officers forged documents and claiming he
was a businessman from Costa Rica, he was allowed to walk out of the
police station. It was not until the next day, when his fingerprints
were checked, that mortified officers learned they had again let
Vallée escape.
He did not go far, however, and was arrested days later as he left a
Montreal dépanneur.
In September in Albany, N.Y., Vallée faced a jury trial for—as William
Pericak, the Assistant U.S. Attorney who prosecuted the case, put it
—“procuring the unavailability of the witness by murder.”
Although the case was circumstantial and Vallée denied his
involvement, an anonymous jury found him guilty.
Judge Thomas McAvoy will sentence Vallée this morning. Mr. Pericak is
seeking a life term and $1.4-million in restitution to Mr. Carter’s
family for the loss of his income.
“When you go to jail here we have a thing called the Inmate Financial
Responsibility Program where you work,” Mr. Pericak said.
“It is our hope that Mr. Vallée works every single day for the rest of
his life and that every single day a fraction of that money gets paid
to the family of Lee Carter so that each day he has a reminder of what
he did.”

PLATTSBURGH, N.Y.—
Police have arrested two people in connection with an armed robbery at
Zuke’s Deli in Plattsburgh on Sunday. Click To Watch Video Of suspects
Leaving Police Station Tuesday MorningPolice said the robber showed a
gun to the deli owner and left with a register drawer full of cash at
about 4 p.m. Police said the man left before officers arrived. Police
searched the area but were unable to immediately locate the man.
Franklyn R. Akey, 24, of Plattsburgh, N.Y.
Franklyn R. Akey, 24, and Anthony P. Vallee, 27, both of Plattsburgh,
were charged with first-degree robbery, a felony. Police said they
found an air pistol believed to have been used in the robbery and the
store register drawer at Vallee’s Wallace Hill Road home. Other
evidence was also found at the home, police said.
Anthony P. Vallee, 27, of Plattsburgh, N.Y.
Police said they traced the two men down using information on the
vehicles used during the robbery. The vehicle was located by police
and information obtained during a traffic stop of the vehicle led to
the arrest, police said, adding that they believe the men wanted the
cash to purchase illegal prescription drugs.Akey has also been charged
in connection with a June 19 burglary at Taylor Rental, where a safe
containing business cards and cash was stolen. He faces a third-degree
burglary charge in that case.Dan Harpp, the co-owner of Zuke’s, told
NewsChannel 5 that he’s “very concerned that this happened in a small
residential area in midafternoon.” He said he’s “thankful no one got
hurt.”Both men were arraigned in Plattsburgh court Tuesday and sent to

Vallee admits to robbing Zuke’s
March 24, 2010
By ANDREA VanVALKENBURG
PLATTSBURGH — Instead of taking his case to trial as expected, and
without a negotiated plea in place, Anthony Vallee has admitted to
robbing Zuke’s Corner Store last year.
The 27-year-old Plattsburgh man was set to go on trial this week but
recently returned to Clinton County Court and admitted to the full
indictment against him.
That means the terms of his sentencing will be at the discretion of
the court when Vallee returns on May 24, court clerks said.
Vallee and Franklyn Akey, 25, of Plattsburgh were arrested within a
day of the July 19 holdup inside the popular Plattsburgh deli.
Authorities have said that Akey drove the getaway car, while Vallee
stormed the store with an air pistol and threatened two clerks, making
off with a cash register containing $720.
No one was physically harmed during the robbery.
The pair were arrested when police searched Vallee’s home and found
evidence connected to the crime.
Prosecutors have said their addiction to painkillers fueled the brazen
daytime crime.
Akey recently pleaded guilty in the case and is now serving five years
at Bare Hill Correctional Facility. As part of his plea, Akey was
expected to testify against Vallee.
Vallee remains in custody at Clinton County Jail pending sentencing.

Thomas Arthur Vallee was arrested by the secret service in Chicago
days before a scheduled visit by Kennedy
There were three known attempts on taking JFK’s life in the fall of
1963. In late October, Thomas Arthur Vallee was arrested by the secret
service in Chicago days before a scheduled visit by Kennedy. Vallee
was discovered to have an M-1 rifle, a handgun, and three thousand
rounds of ammunition. Days later, the Secret Service received another
threat: Kennedy would be ambushed in Chicago by a Cuban hit squad. The
Chicago trip was cancelled without explanation. On November 18, four
days before the assassination in Dallas, Joseph Milteer outlined the
details for the upcoming Texas attempt to a police informant. None of
these threats were forwarded to authorities in Dallas. (Belzer 10)

DUI Arrest Results In U.S. Marshals 15 Most Wanted Capture
Richard Vallee Wanted for Murdering a Government Witness
U.S. Marshals 15 Most Wanted fugitive Richard VALLEE was arrested
Thursday night in Montreal, Canada, after years on the run.
A surveillance team spotted Vallee entering a massage parlor, and a
heavily-armed tactical team was put on alert. After exiting the
establishment, Vallee’s identity was verified, he was confronted by
law enforcement officers and surrendered without resistance.
Vallee was wanted on charges stemming from the car-bombing murder of
Lee Carter on July 28, 1993 near Champlain, New York. Carter was a
cooperating witness for the government in a cocaine smuggling and
criminal activities case against Vallee and other members of his
Hell’s Angels outlaw motorcycle gang chapter. It is alleged that
Vallee built and placed the car bomb which killed Carter. He was
indicted in this case by the U.S. District Court in Albany, New York
in August 1996.
Ironically, Vallee had been arrested six days prior to his arrest on
Thursday.
“The break we needed in this case occurred on Friday, April 11, when a
man who called himself Guy Turner was arrested by the Montreal, Canada
Police Department for driving under the influence,” said U.S. Marshals
Senior Inspector Harry Layne. “A search incident to that arrest
revealed a quantity of cash and a handgun in Turner’s vehicle. Turner
was released on bond, and later in the week his fingerprints were
determined to be a match for Vallee.”
After this discovery, Canadian law enforcement officers mounted a
massive effort. Their team consisted of more than 100 officers,
supported by members of the U.S. Marshals, New York State Police, and
the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms. This combined effort led
to Vallee’s arrest Thursday.
Vallee will appear in court in Montreal where it will be determined if
he will stand trial first in Canada on firearms and escape charges, or
be returned to the U.S. where, if convicted, he could receive a
maximum term of life without parole.
U.S. Marshals Service Director Benigno Reyna praised the cooperation
and dedicated police work of the Canadian authorities over the past
five years, which ultimately led to Vallee’s capture. He also
recognized the efforts of the New York State Police, the ATF, and the
Bureau of Diplomatic Security, which contributed to a successful and
safe apprehension.
Annually, U.S. Marshals arrest more than 50 percent of all Federal
fugitives and serve more Federal warrants than all other Federal law
enforcement agencies combined. Last year U.S. Marshals cleared 23,294
warrants on fugitives wanted by state and local law enforcement
authorities in addition to 38,249 Federal fugitive warrants.

Indictment: Brick woman stole $1,400 from mother by forging checks

TOMS RIVER - A 26-year-old Brick woman, accused in an accident that
killed a West Orange attorney, has been indicted in an unrelated case
in which she is accused of stealing from her mother.
An Ocean County grand jury last week charged Crystal Vallee of Route
88 in a single-count indictment alleging theft by deception. The
indictment accused Vallee of cashing a series of seven checks written
on an account she was unauthorized to use. The indictment alleges the
total amount of the theft was more than $500, the legal threshold for
a third-degree crime carrying a potential prison term of three to five
years upon a conviction. Authorities have said Vallee stole blank
checks from her mother, wrote a series of them to herself in amounts
totaling $1,400 and then cashed them. The alleged criminal activity
occurred between Nov. 9 and Nov. 24, 2009, the indictment said. Vallee
also is charged, but not yet indicted, in an unrelated case involving
the vehicular homicide of Mark A. Infante, 54, a municipal prosecutor
in West Orange who had been nominated last year by then-Gov. Jon
Corzine to become an administrative law judge. Infante was struck by
Vallee’s vehicle while he walked on Route 35 near his vacation home in
the Ocean Beach I section of Toms River on the day after Thanksgiving.
Vallee admitted using cocaine prior to the fatal event, an assistant
prosecutor said in court at a recent hearing. Vallee is being held in
the Ocean County Jail. She has been unable to post $150,000 bail set
in the vehicular homicide case or $10,000 set in the theft case.
Vallee also has charges pending against her in Monmouth County
stemming from her arrest in Neptune on Nov. 14 on charges of
possessing crack cocaine and a crack pipe.

Probe continues into pedestrian fatality in Toms River
By MARGARET F. BONAFIDE

TOMS RIVER - Authorities are continuing to investigate Friday’s fatal
crash on Route 35, while thousands of mourners bid farewell to Mark A.
Infante, 54, a prominent Essex County attorney who was struck and
killed near his summer home in Ocean Beach.
Police Chief Michael G. Mastronardy said that the preliminary
investigation shows Infante was walking on the east shoulder of the
southbound lane of Route 35.
The initial investigation showed Infante was struck from behind by a
car driven by Crystal Vallee, 26, of West Princeton Avenue in Brick,
Mastronardy said.
Infante was en route to the Lavallette post office, about four blocks
away, when he was struck. Near the site where he was killed, a family
friend later found the letter Infante was taking to the post office,
Mastronardy said. The letter was returned to his family, Mastronardy
said.
Police said that Vallee’s car struck Infante then a second vehicle, a
Toyota Camry driven by Lawrence Geller, 76, of Philadelphia. The Camry
had minimal damage and was able to be driven after authorities cleared
the car from the scene.
Authorities are continuing to await forensic results that can help
determine the facts of Vallee’s activities before the crash and what
led to her car striking Infante, according to the Ocean County
Prosecutor’s Office. Forensic evidence that was collected is still
being analyzed. No charges have been filed against Vallee, police
said.
Vallee’s car, a 1998 Chevrolet Lumina, registered to her, has been
impounded by authorities and is the subject of a search warrant, a
standard protocol in any investigation involving a fatality, Mohel
said. Police are asking the public if they have any information
relative to the investigation to call Detective Craig Ally of the
Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office at
732-929-2027, ext. 3113 or the
township police Traffic Safety Office at
732-349-0150.

TOMS RIVER - A driver who allegedly caused a two-vehicle crash that
killed one of the passengers in his car has been charged with
vehicular homicide.
Authorities claim Jamal Lomax, 33, of Dove Street in Toms River, was
driving under the influence when he lost control of his Subaru Nov. 27
on the Thomas A. Mathis Bridge, which carries Route 37 traffic east
over Barnegat Bay. After striking a sport-utility vehicle, police said
the Subaru overturned, causing Lomax and two passengers to be ejected.
One of the passengers, 33-year-old Charles Hart of Toms River, was
pronounced dead at the scene shortly after the 11:30 p.m. crash. In
addition to the vehicular homicide and DUI charges, Lomax has been
charged with reckless driving and failure to wear a seat belt. He was
released from the Ocean County Jail in Toms River after posting
$75,000 bail. Lomax and the other passenger - 33-year-old Lamiont
Coston, also of Toms River - were treated for minor injuries at Jersey
Shore University Hospital in Neptune. The driver of the other vehicle,
Sarah Rathgeberkleinert, 22, of Toms River, and her three passengers
were uninjured, police said. The driver in a separate fatal accident
Nov. 27 also is facing vehicular homicide and driving while
intoxicated charges. Crystal Vallee, 26, of Brick was charged by Toms
River police in connection with a crash that killed 54-year-old Mark
A. Infante. Police said Infante, the municipal prosecutor in West
Orange, who had been nominated for a state judgeship, was walking
across Route 35 near the Lavallette post office when Vallee’s car
struck him from behind. At her first appearance in court on the
homicide charge Wednesday, a visibly distraught Vallee sat shaking her
head and shielding her face before standing to address Superior Court
Judge Wendel E. Daniels. Vallee also is charged with reckless driving,
possession of heroin in a motor vehicle, failing to maintain a lane of
travel and failing to keep to the right. When asked if she understood
her rights, Vallee put her face in her hands, then looked at the judge
and quietly said, “Yes, sir.” She remained held Tuesday on a total of
$170,000 bail for not only the homicide charge but also a theft
charged filed by Brick police after her mother accused her of stealing
blank checks and writing them out to herself

TOMS RIVER - A prominent Essex County attorney in line to be a state
administrative law judge was struck by a car and killed Friday while
walking along Route 35 near his summer home.
The lawyer, Mark A. Infante, 54, of West Orange, who maintains a
vacation home in Ocean Beach I, was returning from a walk to the
Lavallette Post Office when he was struck about 12:30 p.m., said Toms
River Police Chief Michael G. Mastronardy. He was pronounced dead at
the scene, police said. Infante was struck by a southbound 1998
Chevrolet Lumina driven by Christal Vallee, 26, of Brick, Mastronardy
said. Traffic safety officers, the Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office
and county Sheriff’s Department are investigating the circumstances of
the accident. Police said Infante was across about 100 feet south and
across the street from the summer home which his family said was built
by his grandfather in 1962. Infante was returning to the summer home
after walking about a half-mile to the post office, police said.
Infante, the West Orange municipal prosecutor, was nominated in June
by Gov. Jon S. Corzine for appointment as a state a administrative law
judge. The family had gathered for Thanksgiving at the home of
Infante’s brother, Martin Infante, in Point Pleasant. On Friday,
members gathered and consoled each other and spoke about the man they
admired. They recalled how Mark Infante, in charge of this year’s
turkey and ever the stickler for detail, fussed over the best brining
kit for the holiday fowl. The brined bird turned out to be the best
they had ever had, the Infantes said. He also made bread pudding, said
Lynn Infante, 53, his wife of 31 years. He loved to cook and loved
family traditions especially when it came to food. “We were friends,
best friends,” Lynn Infante said. Lynn and Mark Infante, sweethearts
since junior high school, also have two sons, Mark, 21, and Andrew,
19, both of West Orange. Infante’s daughter, Jessica, is a staff
writer for the Asbury Park Press and Times-Beacon newspapers. A Giants
fan, Mark Infante was passionate about yelling instructions to the
players through the television screen. He didn’t care that they could
not hear him, Jessica Infante said. Mark Infante was a man of many
hobbies and had an appropriate outfit to go with each adventure. He
and his wife were fans of yoga and were planning on attending yoga
class this morning. He could do a perfect tree pose, Jessica Infante
said. His enthusiasm for yoga would at times lead him to engage other
yoga followers. “He would challenge you to a yoga-off,” Jessica said.
Lynn Infante said she was just grateful that “all the children were
together in the same room” on Thanksgiving. “He was a good egg,” Lynn
Infante said of her husband. “I would tease him about it all the
time.” Mark Infante loved his summer home, a place he cherished and
spent time fishing, boating and enjoying life, his family said. “He
always had as much fun as he could,” Jessica Infante said. “He was
like a big kid with toys.”
