Person Scientist Israel Scientific Attaché FBI Investigation Nuclear Materials Pittsburgh Intelligence

Jeruham Kafkafi was an Israeli scientific attaché. He had a highly suspicious meeting at the airport in Pittsburgh with Zalman Mordecai Shapiro. The Federal Bureau of Investigation reported that Kafkafi flew from Washington D.C. to Pittsburgh for the meeting and returned immediately to Washington. Shapiro later told congressional investigators that the meeting was arranged at his request because he had not been paid for antiterrorist equipment his company had shipped to Israel.¹
