[See the subchapter entitled "THE KROLL CONNECTION" (which precedes this selection) to place it (this segment) in its proper context:
"Jeremy M. Kroll, the Managing Director of Marsh Kroll, is also on the 'advisory board' of Elad Yoran's Security Growth Partners. ...This is a crucial connection in the Zionist network behind 9-11; this is where we hit the mainline, &c."]
. 
KROLL & THE CHALLENGE FUND
.
The Challenge Fund is an Israeli intelligence funding operation, based in Israel and also known as Etgar, which means “challenge” in Hebrew. This limited partnership involves the biggest players in the Zionist funding network in North America with the most senior officers in Israeli military intelligence. This is one of the key funding entities for Israeli intelligence operations in the United States. The operation describes itself as, “two Delaware limited partnerships focused on equity investments in Israel-related privately held and publicly traded companies.”
.
The Challenge Fund was founded in July 1995. A second fund, The Challenge Fund – Etgar II L.P., was established in 1999. The funds claim to have a capital base in excess of $200 million, “making them one of Israel’s leading sources of private investment capital.” Challenge Fund investors include “a highly distinguished group of American and European investors,” primarily members of the extended Bronfman and Andreas families. Charles de Gunzburg, for example, a Bronfman cousin, is on the funds’ “investment committee.” Bronfman, which means distiller in Yiddish, is the family behind Seagram’s, the Canadian whisky company.
.
Andreas is the family behind the grain broker Archer Daniels Midland (ADM). The funds are managed by the “Challenge Partners,” a small team of “experienced professionals,” all Israelis of course, headed by Joseph Ciechanover, the president of the funds and member of the “Investment Committee”. Ciechanover is a former chairman of state-owned El Al Israel Airlines. Living in New York, he is also a member of the NASDAQ Advisory Board. He previously served as President of PEC Israel Economic Corporation [P for Palestine], which was later merged into I.D.B. Holding [Israel Discount Bank], a private investment and holding company.

.
Ciechanover served as Chairman of the Board of Israel Discount Bank, Israel’s third largest commercial bank, and was a member of the Bank of Israel Advisory Committee. He also served as Director General of Israel’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Head of Israel’s Defense Mission to the United States and Canada, and General Counsel to the Israel Ministries of Defense and Agriculture. Ciechanover’s daughter, Tamar, is a “managing partner” of the funds.

Another partner of the Challenge Funds is Maj. General Ilan Biran, the Chairman of the Board of Rafael Armament Development Authority Ltd. (since June 2007), former Director General of the Israeli Ministry of Defense, and president and CEO of Bezeq, the Israel Telecommunication Corp. During his military service, Biran served as Commander of the Central Command and the Technology and Logistic Branch of the IDF.

.
On the “advisory board” with Jeremy Kroll sit some of the most interesting people involved in the Challenge Funds. One is David Ivry, president of Boeing [Israel]. Ivry has held several senior military and diplomatic related positions, including Commander of the Israel Air Force (1977-82), an unprecedented ten-year period as Director General of the Ministry of Defense (1986-96), and Israel’s chief representative to the U.S.-Israel Strategic Dialogue. Ivry moved from the highest position in the Ministry of Defense to become the Minister of Strategic Affairs at the Prime Minister’s office from 1996 to 1999, and Ambassador to the U.S. from January 2000 through 2002. Ivry has twice served as Chairman of the Board of Israel Aircraft Industries (IAI).

.
From October 1977 to the end of 1982 [i.e. during the period of Israel's most egregious criminal air assaults on Lebanon], Ivry commanded the Israel Air Force (IAF). Ivry also directed the IAF’s criminal destruction of the Osirak nuclear reactor in Iraq. Ivry has a history of directing criminal actions using aircraft.
.
In 1962, David Ivry became the commander of the first Israeli squadron of the French Dassault Mirage fighter jet. During the six-day war of 1967, Ivry served as a Mirage pilot and the commander of the Mystère squadron. Ivry was either personally involved in the criminal Israeli attack on the U.S.S. Liberty with Mirage fighters or commanded those who were. Thirty-four American servicemen lost their lives in the Israeli attack. In any case, Ivry has clearly been involved in numerous war crimes and has shown very little regard for American lives.
.
 Yaakov Peri (a.k.a. Jacob Perry) Director of Shin Bet 1988-94
Another member of the Challenge Fund advisory board is Jacob Perry (a.k.a. Yaacov Peri). Perry is another former head of the Shin Bet (Director GSS, 1988-94). In 1995, Perry left the secret service and “joined the business sector” with his appointment as president and CEO of Cellcom Israel Ltd., Israel’s largest wireless telephone service provider.
.
Avi Naor (Aharonovich) of the Aurec Group and president and CEO of Amdocs is another member of the Challenge Fund’s advisory board.
.
In addition to Ciechanover, the Challenge Fund has been managed by Yair Shamir, the son of Yitzhak Shamir, the Zionist terrorist who was involved in numerous assassinations, including the 1947 murder of the U.N. envoy to Palestine, Folke Bernadotte, a member of the Swedish royal family. Shamir is also suspected of being involved in the murder of President John F. Kennedy.
 Yair Shamir
During his term in the Air Force, Yair Shamir, “attained the rank of colonel and served as head of the electronics department, the highest professional electronics position within the Air Force,” according to his biography.
.
These are the kind of high-level Israeli intelligence agents that work with Jeremy Kroll on the “advisory board” of the Challenge Fund. Kroll brings a degree in fine arts (French and Italian) from Georgetown and his executive position with Kroll to the table. Who do you think makes the strategic decisions in this group? It was, I submit, through these connections with Kroll and Greenberg that agents of Israeli military intelligence gained control of security of the World Trade Center and were able to carry out 9-11.
