Over 30 suspects arrested in what police say was first, largest undercover investigation of its kind. Suspects ‘fell’ for police officer posing as young girl
ed note–remember, those Jews involved in this can sleep at night knowing their religion permits this, right from the mouth of Moses himself–
And Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and all the princes of the congregation, went forth to meet them without the camp.
And Moses was furious with the officers of the host, with the captains over thousands, and captains over hundreds, which came from the battle.
And Moses said unto them, Have ye saved all the women alive? Behold, these caused the children of Israel, through the counsel of Balaam, to commit trespass against the LORD…
Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him.
But all the women children, that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves.
Numbers 31:13-18, 32-35

Cleared for publication: An extensive undercover police investigation has exposed a large online pedophile ring operating in Israel.
According to the police, more than 30 suspects have been arrested as part of the investigation, headed by the National Fraud Unit, and described as the first and largest of its kind to ever take place in the country.
The majority of the suspects have no criminal record; and include students, civil servants, a defense establishment official, a former police officer and an agronomist – to name a few.
According to the police, they range in age from 20-57 and reside all over Israel. “We can’t put our finger on anything specific and say ‘this is the profile,”” a source privy to the investigation said.
Dangers of cyberspace
The investigation was launched in April, after the police were able to recruit an “expert witness” – a pedophile who was arrested and agreed to collaborate with the police.
The suspect provided investigators with certain behavioral codes common in Israel’s online pedophilia community, thus enabling them to construct a virtual profile of a 12-year-old girl.
The profile was managed by N., a female soldier serving with the police. She was tasked with maintaining “relationships” with the suspects via chat-rooms and message boards.
The suspects, she said, would offer her anything from clothes and presents to money, to get her to meet them.
The suspects’ conversations with the “girl” – which according to the police included explicitly suggestive and sexual language – were documented by the investigators; as were several phone conversations held between N. and the suspects.
“I knew that pedophiles operated online, but I was shocked by how extensive it was,” she said. “I told them I was 12 and that I was shy, but it didn’t even deter them. They went to great lengths to try to get me to meet with them. The conversations were very sexual in nature. It was appalling.”
The suspects are clearly heard on tapes released by the police as promising N. anything she wanted in exchange for a meeting. “I’m dying to meet you. Maybe we can go somewhere, find a quiet place in the woods,” one was taped saying.
Some of the suspects even sent N. photos of themselves in either sexual positions or performing various sexual acts.
After three months of what was described as intense police efforts, and after solid evidence was gathered against over 30 suspects, the police began executing arrest warrants.
Investigators believe that the ring represents only the tip of the iceberg as far as the scope of online pedophilia in Israel.
“We implore parents to take an active interest – and control – over what their children are doing online and who they come in contact with online,” Major-General Moti Aderi, of the National Fraud Unit said. “Cyberspace is a dangerous place.”
