Israeli high-tech firms Verint and Narus have had connections with U.S. companies and Israeli intelligence in the past, and ties between the countries' intelligence agencies remain strong.

3. Very very significant...

As an ardent Zionist, please allow me to say that one of the most significant raison d'etre for Israel's existence is its continued assistance in the fields of intelligence and technology to the United States of America. Always was, always will be. So when the 'other side' gnashes its teeth and doesn't understand the USA's unswerving assistance of Israel, I smile to myself.

4. We work very close with Israel Intel

and have been for decades, so no surprise here.

5. how about not significant at all. If you don't grasp that there are

corporations from several different countries and multinationals involved in NSA shit, you don't grasp much at all.

6. What I do grasp is that I no longer care to read your remarks.

Welcome to ingnore.
