5g LEASE PER MONTH FOR 36 MONTHS With coritolizt•l cost reduction A recent congressional report detailed a large-scale audit conducted by the Gen- eral Accounting Office of military sales to Israel and Egypt. The report was requested by Rep. David Obey, D-Wis., an advocate of foreign aid reform who chairs the powerful House Appropria- tions subcommittee on for- eign operations, which ap- propriates foreign aid money. The audits were done in the wake of a major fraud case in Israel involving an Israeli general, Rami Dotan, who was convicted of taking approximately $40 million in U.S. money by filling out false reports on U.S. defense contracts. The so-called Dotan affair caused concern here that foreign military contracts were not being properly monitored. The commercial channel was viewed by some as par- ticularly vulnerable to abuse because the U.S. government has fewer methods of monitoring commercial sales in which it is not involved. Embassy spokeswoman Yaron said that as a result of the Dotan affair, the Israelis had "dramatically" changed their procurement ratio and were now obtaining fully two-thirds of their military needs through government- to-government channels. While the GAO report did discuss various "weaknesses" found in the entire process by which Israel and Egypt purchase military equipment, the Israeli Embassy here pro- claimed itself "pleased" by the report's overall conclu- sions. Ms. Yaron said that the Israeli government was "pleased that the report rec- ognizes that the Ministry of Defense conducts its FMF financed commercial pro- curement in a fundamental- ly sound manner." The report noted that in some cases Israel and Egypt had valid reasons, including price and safety considera- tions, for using the commer- cial channel instead of the . government channel. In addition, the report noted that Israel had added controls to its procurement process following the Dotan affair. The countries eligible to make FMF purchases through the commercial channel are Israel, Egypt, Turkey, Greece, Portugal, Tunisia, Morocco and Jor- dan.
