What about getting this story on the frontpage? Anyone of you who are capable of doing that. I myself had considerable trouble finding this article, and it is arguably more important than the recent aircraft-crash in Iran.As NYT states: Even veteran political observers were taken aback by the scope of the investigation. The mayors of Hoboken, Secaucus and Ridgefield were among those arrested. “This is so massive,” said Joseph Marbach, a political scientist at Seton Hall University. “It’s going to just reinforce the stereotype of New Jersey politics and corruption.”~( The New York Times, July 23 2009:44 Charged by U.S. in New Jersey Corruption Sweep) Michelle Bentley ( talk) 09:27, 25 July 2009 (UTC)
I am terrible slow to figuring out these kind of things. But I undersatnd that checks was sold to Synagogues for cash minus a 10 percent fee. Has any one in the chain been using taxdeducting payments to [the synagoeges] charitable funds? I think some news stories says as much, so it should be stated in the article. But can anyone explain to me how money payed to the Synagoge in this way could be transferred to its fund? By another middle-man? Update: Oh, I am slowly getting it. The money came from Israel and a swiss bank, and was payed to the Synagoges Charitable fund, which was tax-deductable, so The Synagoge could then afford to pay a nice interest rate to the people in Israel and Switzerland. Can any one confirm if this is plausible? Michelle Bentley ( talk) 09:31, 25 July 2009 (UTC)

An article of the Swedish journalist Donald Boström about organ trafficking by Israelis was mostly inspired (alongside with self-invented paranoid connections with the Palestinian-Israeli conflict) from the organ trafficking part of the various criminal activities discovered by Operation Bid Rig. Shouldn't there be at least a section to mention this ? -- Pylambert ( talk) 21:47, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
I reworked this section to categorize it a bit. Hope it makes more sense. Njsamizdat ( talk) 20:58, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
