Israeli Security Firms in London: Fortress GB & ICTS

by Christopher Bollyn 

August 16, 2005

Fortress GB is an Israeli company doing business in Great Britain. It is on the same floor, in the same building, as International Consultants on Targeted Security (ICTS U.K.), another Israeli transportation security firm.  ICTS UK and Fortress GB are both located on the 1st floor of Tavistock House South, which is exactly where the bus blew up on July 7. 

An Israeli man answered the phone at Fortress GB and was noticeably reluctant to answer any questions about who ran the company although he did admit that a lot of Israelis worked there.  The secretary at ICTS UK Ltd., however, quickly told me that the companies are related. 

These Israeli security firms should be investigated in light of the London bombings, because they provide "security technology" for the tube lines that were bombed. They have perfected their "security" skills in Israel and Iraq and then apply them in Britain and the U.S.A.  This is a pattern. The same thing happened at Heathrow Airport when the PanAm flight went down over Lockerbie and the same thing occurred at Boston and Newark airports on 9-11. Isn't it time for nations to use their own brains and people to protect their citizens and stop outsourcing their most fundamental obligations to dodgy Israeli "security" firms?  Who guards the guards?
