The three fundamental issues are a) Brazen
conduct by the Bank, which should be deemed as a pattern of Extortion through
corporate White-collar Crime, b) Sovereignty, or lack thereof, of the State of
Israel, in general, and Bank of Israel- Banking Regulation, in particular, vis-a-vis
their United States counterparts, and c) Integrity, or lack thereof, in Bank of
Israel-Banking Regulation Consumer Complaints fax and online electronic submission
procedures, in particular, and Consumer Complaints procedure in general.

Jerusalem,
October 15 – Joseph Zernik, PhD, of Human Rights Alert (NGO), has
released an October 14 letter, forwarded to Stanley Fisher, Governor of Bank of
Israel, State of Israel central bank and banking regulator. The letter details ongoing extortionist
demands and threats by Bank HaPoalim, BM, an Israeli bank, on a large number of
Israeli customers, who are according to the United States government "US
Persons", to annually file United States income tax forms, even when not
conducting any business in the United States, to waive privacy rights in
Israeli banking to the US government, etc.
Bank HaPoalim has been threatening its "US Persons" customers
in Israel with various adverse actions, regarding their access to the own
customer accounts.
The letter to Mr
Fisher again alleged that conduct of Bank HaPoalim in this matter amounted to
Extortion through
corporate White-collar Crime.
The letter
further details opinions, expressed by the Bank's employees, that the actions
of the Bank were inevitable and that other banks in Israel will cave in soon as
well, since the US threatens to block the access of Israeli banks to
international banking clearance services if the banks do not enforce the recent
US law in these matters in the State of Israel.
From the beginning, the Bank's demands have always been represented as
enforcement of US law in the State of Israel, and no law of the State of Israel
was ever mentioned.
The letter to Mr
Fisher again raised the question of sovereignty, or lack thereof, of the State of Israel,
in general, and Bank of Israel- Banking Regulation, in particular, vis-a-vis
their United States counterparts, as reflected by conduct of the Bank.
Finally, the
letter details communications with Bank of Israel-Banking Regulation since
August 25, 2012, when receipt of formal Consumer Complaint was confirmed, and
ongoing refusal to designate a Complaint number.
The letter to Mr Fisher raises concern regarding integrity,
or lack thereof, in Bank of Israel-Banking Regulation Consumer Complaint fax
and online electronic submission procedures, in particular, and Consumer Complaints
procedure in general.
Conditions, which
are documented in the letter to Bank of Israel's Stanley Fisher should raise
concerns regarding socio-economic stability in the State of Israel. Criminality in banking and banking regulation
in the United States has been repeatedly documented as the core of the current
crisis, which has caused unprecedented, rapid, peacetime redistribution of
assets and income and large-scale impoverishment of the People of the United
States.
Notice was
given to the Basel Accord Committee and various national central banks.
