In July, news articles reported that former Pennsylvania governor and former head of Bush's Homeland Security Tom Ridge was hired by the Pa. Marcellus Shale gas drillers @ $75,000/month to be their "spokesman". Have you heard one word from Ridge since then? Some "spokesman". Fast forward two months later, and news articles report that an Israeli company ITRR is being used with Pa. taxpayers' money to spy on Marcellus Shale gas driller protesters. ITRR is the same company Tom Ridge worked with on the federal level with the color coded terror alerts. In his book, Ridge admits that terror alerts by ITRR were faked for political purposes, such as issuing a terror alert during the Bush-Kerry presidential debates. NOW...both Tom Ridge and ITRR turn up at the state level in the form of Ridge being paid $75,000/month to be the gas drillers' "spokesman" and ITRR has been found to be spying on the gas driller protesters. Coincidence? That is TOO BIG of a coincidence! Is Tom Ridge being paid $75,000/month by the gas drillers to work with his old buddies ITRR to spy on gas driller protesters? I think so. Let me put it another way: do you think the gas drillers' "spokesman" Tom Ridge has no idea that his Israeli ITRR buddies he worked with for Bush's Homeland Security are working for his gas drilling companies? Or do you think that because of his intimate relationship with ITRR in Bush's Homeland Security, he was hired by the gas drillers to work with them again to spy on Pennsylvanians for them? The "spokesman" who doesn't speak: since Tom Ridge was hired by the gas drillers @ &75,000/month, have you seen him speak ONE WORD from this extremely high paid "spokesman"? Do you think when Ridge became "spokesman" for the gas drillers, he said to ITRR: "Hey! What are YOU guys doin' here? How have you been!!!!!! What a coincidence!!!!!!!!! We won't have much of a learning curve working together, since we worked together in the Bush administration on those FAKE 'terror alerts'.........."
Why isn't present Pa. attorney general Tom Corbett, who's running for governor, investigating ties between Ridge/ITRR/Pa. Homeland Security? Isn't that his job?
July: Pa. Marcellus Shale gas drillers hire former Pa. governor and Bush head of Homeland Security as "spokesman" @ $75,000/month.
September: Israeli company ITRR, same company that issued terror alerts for Tom Ridge in the Bush administration, caught spying on Pennsylvanians for the Marcellus Shale gas drillers.

In May of this year libertarian activist George Donnelly was videotaping a fellow activist peacefully protesting in front of a Federal Courthouse in Allentown, PA. He never imagined what exercising his constitutional liberties would cost him.
The footage you see here was deleted by the authorities in an attempt to cover up the truth. It was recovered using open source software.

This is interesting: I first reported that Tom Ridge was hired as a spokesman for the Marcellus Shale drillers here. Click on the link for that article in that post "Ex-Pennsylvania Republican governor becomes spokesman for the Reckless Drillers for $75,000 per month (that's $840,000/year)" and the Forbes article is gone. I cut/paste his $75,000/month salary from the Forbes article, that's how I know it existed.
Will this Forbes article be gone in a month or two?
Tamper Proof Container Systems (TPCS), a Massachusetts-based security technology solutions provider, specializing in the areas of port and container security, pipeline and infrastructure security, and nuclear non-proliferation efforts, has named Tom Ridge, president and CEO of Ridge Global, an international risk management and security firm, to its Board of Directors. The two companies will combine Ridge Global's world-class expertise in security and operational continuity with TPCS's innovative technology solution to mitigate security threats and enhance cargo loss prevention capabilities:

Is the heat on Tom Ridge behind the scenes, and it's not being reported in the "news"? Marcellus Shale summit featuring "spokesman" Tom Ridge quietly cancelled:
Missing article of Marcellus Shale summit cancellation.
Another article missing…referred to in this post.
The Marcellus Shale Coaltion has quietly cancelled a "shale gas summit" originally planned for Oct. 1.
This appears to confirm that ITRR is gathering information on Americans and sending the data to Israel -- almost certainly to Israeli intelligence. It would not be surprising if this firm were simply a front for Israeli intelligence and in effect being paid by US taxpayers to spy on them. In Pittsburgh, a city council member has demanded a probe into ITRR accusing the firm of "espionage."

Israeli spying on U.S. soil on U.S. citizens has never stopped, see this quashed FOX news expose from around the time 9/11 happened...if it's Israel, then it's "OK" with the U.S. government...whose side is the U.S. and Pa. government on, anyway?
