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 largescale impoverishment of the People of the United States. Notice was given to the Basel Accord Committee and various national central banks.
