A lot of Israeli counter-terrorism technology, much of it secret, is being used
in Iraq. One of the more open bits of Israeli expertise are dogs trained to
sniff our roadside bombs. Particularly useful have been the technology and
techniques for spotting suicide bombers before they can reach their targets.
Israel developed all of this during the last four years, as they fought, and
eventually defeated Palestinian terror organizations (that were sending hundreds
of suicide bombers into Israel). Israeli intelligence techniques have been
particularly effective tracking down terrorist cells in Iraq, and discovering
where they are operating from. Were terrorists to know details of how these
techniques, and accompanying technology, worked, they would be better able to
avoid the effects. So the details on all this won?t become known for several
years, or longer. Only when the techniques and technology are no longer
effective will any of it be declassified. Details will probably leak out before
that, but these will be leaks with deadly consequences. Anything that makes the
terrorists more effective results in people getting killed.
