zur Erinnerung ne alte PM von OTI New York, 4. November 2002 - ICTS Technologies, ein Tochterunternehmen von ICTS International (NASDAQ: ICTS), und OTI On Track Innovations Ltd.

Es vereint unterschiedliche innovative Sensoren, Datenbanken und moderne Analysesysteme in sich mit dem Ziel, die Sicherheit im Flugverkehr zu erhöhen und die Abfertigung der Passagiere zu beschleunigen.
Naja das haben die ja auch dringend gebraucht ;)
Anbei ein paar Hinweise, die vielleicht auch Licht in die letzten Pressemitteilungen über die Zusammenarbeit z.B. von OTI und ICTS bringen und v.a. WER HINTER ICTS steckt.
1. der/ die Hauptprofiteure, falls es doch noch mal was werden sollte mit OTI an der Nasdaq:

25.06.2001 ICTS FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE For information contact: Brandon Rees, + 1 202 637 3900 AFL-CIO Calls for Shareholders to Vote "No" On ICTS Proposal
The Netherlands, June 26 -- The AFL-CIO will address the annual meeting of ICTS International N. V. (NASDAQ: ICTS) to urge fellow shareholders to vote AGAINST a proposal by ICTS`s Supervisory Board to give the company authorization to issue up to 17,000,000 shares over the next five years without further shareholder approval. If issued, these shares would represent more than a 150 percent increase in the number of shares outstanding and at current share price levels will be highly dilutitive to existing shareholders.
In a letter to shareholders, the AFL-CIO urged a vote "No" because ICTS continues to make major investments outside of its core business of aviation security services. Many of these investments may be high risk and also raise conflict of interest concerns as many involved businesses affiliated with Supervisory Board Chairman, Ezra Harel and boardmember Menachem Atzmon, or their holding company Leedan Business Enterprises. According to William Patterson, Director of the AFL-CIO Office of Investment, "ICTS is a public company with a questionable acquisition record. Now is not the time to write management a blank check."
According to the AFL-CIO, ICTS`s investment strategy shows disturbing similarities to a previous Harel venture, AP Industries, where bondholders may have lost up to half of their original investment. According to a New York Times article, "AP Industries sold $100 million in `junk bonds` to finance an acquisition binge. Numerous acquisitions later, the cash [was] spent, mostly on money-losing operations, including one bought from the company`s chairman" (NY Times, 7/28/89). AP Industries was forced to file for bankruptcy shortly after.
Nochmal zur Homepage von ICTS zurück http://www.icts-int.com/generators/comanagers.php#a_3 Menachem J. Atzmon: Managing Director of Albermale Investment Ltd. and of Kent Investment Holding Ltd., both investment companies. Since January 1998, he has served as CEO of the Port of Rostock. He is also joint Managing Director of Harmony Ventures, B.V..
http://www.webarchiv-server.de/pin/archiv00/0100ob11.htm ... Die Geschichte vom Hafen-Verkauf klang von Anfang an unglaublich. Doch Rostocks Oberbürgermeister Arno Pöker versicherte vor zwei Jahren große Investitionen. Doch es kam anders: Im Juli 1999 wurde Strafanzeige gegen den Chef der Firma "Clean System", erste und einzige Firmenansiedlung im Rostocker Seehafen, erstattet. Chef der Firma ist der in Israel lebende Jacob Lustgarten, erster Geschäftsführer ist Menachem Atzmon, der zugleich Geschäftsführer der Seehafenumschlagsgesellschaft ist. Beiden wird vorgeworfen, die Beantragung des Gesamtvollstreckungsverfahrens unterlassen zu haben. Nach Angaben der "Ostsee-Zeitung" ist die Clean System inzwischen mit 2,6 Millionen Mark überschuldet. Pöker ist heute die Situation hochnotpeinlich. Schließlich war die Hafenumschlagsgesellschaft mitsamt 100 Hektar gepachteter Hafenfläche ohne öffentliche Ausschreibung an die Kent Investment verkauft worden, eine auf den Marshallinseln registrierte Holding, deren Inhaber Menachem Atzmon, Lord David Young of Graffham und Ezra Harel sind. Das Trio versprach 1997 viel: sichere Arbeitsplätze, neue Investitionen, eine neue Container-Reederei aber leider wurde nur wenig gehalten.
http://www.webarchiv-server.de/pin/archiv00/4900ob04.htm Hafen Rostock: In den Sand gesetzt - Wurde die Hansestadt von Briefkastenfirma betrogen? ... Die Frage ist nur, ob man die Kent-Investment-Gesellschaft, deren Inhaber Menachem Atzmon, Lord David Young of Graffham und Ezra Harel sind, so einfach und billig zu einem Verzicht bewegen kann. Denn nach wie vor liegen die Hintergründe der abenteuerlichen Geschichte im Dunkeln: Warum das Engagement dieser internationalen Kaufleute? Und warum gerade Rostock? Leider untersucht derzeit noch kein Staatsanwalt die Frage, aus welchem politisch-strategischen Interesse die britische Briefkastenfirma auf den Marshall-Inseln den Rostocker Hafen erworben hat.
http://www.larouchepub.com/other/2003/3003likud_usgangsta.html ultrakonservativ und etwas verrufen als Quelle, aber wo Rauch da auch Feuer ... A Bigger Scandal: Illegal U.S. Funding of Sharon`s Likud (This article appears in the January 24, 2003 issue of Executive Intelligence Review.) ... Marc Belzberg is a director of the Jerusalem Postjaja, eine von Optimaxx gern zitierte Quelle, the right-wing daily controlled by the Anglo-Canadian rightist Hollinger Corp. of Canadian-born British Lord Conrad Black. ... ... Israeli plutocrat Menachem Atzmon was co-treasurer of the Likud, along with Jerusalem Mayor Ehud Olmert, during and after the 1988 Israeli elections. In August 1988, Atzmon worked with Olmert and two other men to collect illegal contributions for the Likud from corporations, against Israel`s party funding law, by providing fictitious advertising services to the contributors. Atzmon was later convicted in that campaign finance fraud, while Olmert was acquitted. Up until his 1996 conviction, Atzmon was president of the Israel Development Fund (IDF), a U.S. tax-exempt foundation funneling money illegally to the Likud. IDF is one entity in a cluster of such false-front Likud money spigots, all run by Philadelphia attorney Steven L. Friedman, a partner in the Dilworth, Paxson ... Menachem Atzmon resigned as president of Friedman`s IDF following his 1996 conviction for Israeli election campaign finance fraud. But his later U.S. activities would prove to be much more disturbing. Atzmon and his business partner Ezra Harel are the majority owners (57%) of ICTS International Consultants on Targeted Security, run by "former [Israeli] military commanding officers and veterans of government intelligence and security agencies" according its Web site. In 1999, Atzmon`s Netherlands-based firm took over management of security at Logan Airport in Boston, Massachusetts, through ICTS` subsidiary Huntleigh USA. This convicted Likud criminal`s firm was in charge of security at Logan Airport inspecting the validity of passports and visas, searching cargo, screening passengers when two airliners were hijacked from there on Sept. 11, 2001, and demolished the World Trade Center towers in New York.
Was für Verflechtungen tztztz. Ein Schelm der Böses dabei denkt.
