"The Iraqis have always
believed that if they hung
tough enough for a long
period of time, we would get
tired of inspections in Iraq
and move on to Bosnia or
Somalia," Mr. Kay said. It is
an ominous message — for
Israel as well as the United
States. ❑

Tel Aviv (JTA) — A team of
American investigators has
arrived in Israel to question
a former senior Israeli air
force officer in connection
with a bribery scandal in-
volving U.S. defense con-
tractors.
Col. Rami Dotan, former
head of the Israeli air force's
equipment division and at
one time head of the air
force's purchasing mission
in the United States, is cur-
rently serving a 13-year
prison sentence for accepting
some $12 million in bribes
from U.S. aircraft manufac-
turers.
Other officers who worked
with him are also serving
various prison terms for
their participation in the
scam. Some of them were
posted as Israeli air force
liaison officers in some of the
top aircraft and parts sup-
pliers in the United States.
The American team is
made of representatives of
the FBI, the Justice and
Defense departments, con-
gressional committees and
corporations whose agents
allegedly offered the bribes.
In the questioning, which
was to begin this week, the
Americans aim to find out
what Col. Dotan and his ac-
complices did with the
money and how they
managed to launder such
large sums and transfer
them out of the country.
Among the corporations
involved was General Elec-
tric, which admitted to its
complicity and reportedly
paid the U.S. government
$69 million to settle the
case.
The U.S. authorities asked
to question Col. Dotan as his
conviction was announced in
1990, but Israel refused, say-
ing it feared such an inter-
rogation might lead to the
disclosure of details. harmful
to Israel's security.
But under heavy pressure,
Israel has finally agreed to
an indirect interrogation, in
the presence of Israeli
military censors.
The Israeli daily news-
paper Ma'ariv has reported
that the Israeli authorities
Israel has finally
agreed to
interrogation.
.
have built a special facility
at the Israeli Police criminal
investigation headquarters
that includes two rooms
separated by a soundproof
glass window and connected
by computer keyboards and
screens.
The U.S. investigators will
sit in one room and Col.
Dotan in the other, with
military censors in both
places.
The Americans will pose
their questions to the cen-
sors, who will pass along
whatever they find fit to Col.
Dotan, via the computer
screen.
Col. Dotan's replies, after
being screened, will be pass-
ed back to the Americans,
also via computer screen.
It is not known how long
the interrogation will last or
how many of Col. Dotan's
associates will go through
the same procedure.
