And this is only what they are willing to show you, folks.  Hidden cameras, invisibility cloaks and mini-drones were among the gadgets on display Tuesday at an exhibition of Israeli surveillance technology, offering a rare peek into the secretive world of Israeli espionage.
 
The expo was part of a conference promoting business partnerships between military and civilian industries.

About two dozen Israeli companies—some of them founded by ex-intelligence officers—exhibited products used by militaries, police units and in Israel and around the world.
 
It was the first such display of Israeli-made surveillance products in a non-covert setting in Israel, said Ron Kitrey, a retired Israeli military intelligence official who chaired the conference.
 
"It's the tip of the iceberg, what we show here," Kitrey said. "We would be irresponsible and stupid to show people the roots of the iceberg."

WAS A FAKE IRANIAN 'DEFECTOR' BEHIND THE MURDER OF ARGENTINE PROSECUTOR ALBERTO NISMAN?

Debkafile reports:

A special investigation conducted by debkafile’s intelligence, Iranian and counter-terror sources has discovered that the Argentine-Jewish prosecutor Natalio Alerto Nisman, 51, was murdered on Jan. 18 by an Iranian agent, who had won his trust by posing as a defector under the assumed name of Abbas Haqiqat-Ju.
Alberto Nisman (pictured) was discovered dead in his own apartment in January - a day before he was due to testify about his claims

His killer struck hours before Nisman showed the Argentine parliament evidence that President Cristina Kirchner and Foreign Minister Hector Timerman had covered up Iran’s complicity in the country’s worst ever terrorist attack, the 1994 bombing of the Buenos Aires Jewish community center in which 85 people died, two years after 29 people were killed by a blast at the Israeli embassy.

Nisman’s evidence had it been presented would have ultimately proved Iran's culpability in the two terrorist attacks.

According to our investigation, two Iranian Intelligence Ministers, the incumbent Mahmoud Alavi and his predecessor Hojjat-ol-Eslam Heydar Moslehi, had for nine years wracked their brains for a way to silence the Jewish prosecutor, ever since he began probing the two attacks.
 
They worked hand in glove with senior Argentinean government and intelligence agencies.   (In Iran, intelligence ministers take their orders directly from supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei although they attend cabinet meetings.)

Nisman had made the powers-that-be in Tehran jittery, because:
 
a) he was ambitious, honest and a courageous searcher after the truth;
 
b) he was Jewish and had active connections with Israel;
 
c) in pursuit of his inquiry, he spread his net wide to include contacts with the Israeli Mossad and the American CIA.
 
Furthermore, in 2006, after three years on the job, the prosecutor had put together an intelligence file on the unbelievable scope of Iranian intelligence penetration, using Lebanese Hizballah agents, deep into the government and intelligence establishments of many Latin American countries - not only Argentina, but also Brazil, Uruguay, Chile, Surinam, Trinidad-Tobago and Guyana.

No sooner was this file put before the government in Buenos Aires when it was locked away to prevent its publication.

HOW THE NSA INFECTS COMPUTERS WITH MALICIOUS SOFTWARE

 
The American intelligence service NSA infected more than 50,000 computer networks worldwide with malicious software designed to steal sensitive information.  A special department of the NSA employs more than a thousand hackers.
 
Documents provided by former NSA-employee Edward Snowden and seen by this newspaper, prove this.
A management presentation dating from 2012 explains how the NSA collects information worldwide.
 
In addition, the presentation shows that the intelligence service uses ‘Computer Network Exploitation’ (CNE) in more than 50,000 locations. CNE is the secret infiltration of computer systems achieved by installing malware, malicious software.
 
The NSA computer attacks are performed by a special department called TAO (Tailored Access Operations). Public sources show that this department employs more than a thousand hackers.
 
The malware can be controlled remotely and be turned on and off at will. The ‘implants’ act as digital ‘sleeper cells’ that can be activated with a single push of a button.
 
According to the Washington Post, the NSA has been carrying out this type of cyber operation since 1998.

PENTAGON AND CIA TRYING TO STOP STATE DEPT APPROVAL OF RUSSIAN MONITORING STATIONS ON US SOIL

 
In recent months, the Central Intelligence Agency and the Pentagon have been quietly waging a campaign to stop the State Department from allowing Roscosmos, the Russian space agency, to build about half a dozen seemingly innocuous dome-topped antennae perched atop electronics-packed buildings somewhere in the United States.  The structures are known as monitor stations.
 
They fear that these structures could help Russia spy on the United States and improve the precision of Russian weaponry, the officials said.

These monitor stations, the Russians contend, would significantly improve the accuracy and reliability of Moscow’s version of the Global Positioning System, the American satellite network that steers guided missiles to their targets and thirsty smartphone users to the nearest Starbucks.
 
“They don’t want to be reliant on the American system and believe that their systems, like GPS, will spawn other industries and applications,” said a former senior official in the State Department’s Office of Space and Advanced Technology. “They feel as though they are losing a technological edge to us in an important market. Look at everything GPS has done on things like your phone and the movement of planes and ships.”
 
The Russian effort is part of a larger global race by several countries — including China and European Union nations — to perfect their own global positioning systems and challenge the dominance of the American GPS.

RUSSIANS BEARING GIFTS - FREE DEVICES FOR G20 SUMMIT DELEGATES WERE BUGGED

 
Mobile phone chargers and USB drives given to foreign delegates at the G20 summit in Russia were ‘Trojan horses’ capable of sending data back to the Kremlin.
 
The devices contained bugs that could apparently capture valuable data from phones and computers.
 
According to reports in the Italian press, the German secret services discovered that the gadgets, given to delegates at the meeting of world leaders in St Petersburg last month, were able to retrieve data for use by the Russian secret services.
 
The G20 conference took place in a climate of great diplomatic tension between Russia and the West.
 
Only weeks before, the Kremlin had granted asylum to fugitive Edward Snowden, wanted for leaking security information about US surveillance to the Guardian.
 
At the same time, the US and France were at loggerheads with Russia over intervention in Syria.
 
The alarm was apparently first raised by EU President Herman Van Rompuy, who was suspicious of the Russians’ gifts. All participating governments were urged to ‘take every possible precaution’.
