After 9/11, over 60 Israelis were detained, some under the Patriot Act, for immigration violations, and some were active Israeli military. Some detainees failed polygraph tests regarding alleged surveillance. Investigators suspected some Israelis gathered intelligence about the attacks in advance and didn't share it, but evidence linking Israelis to 9/11 is classified.
Prior to 9/11, up to 140 other Israelis had been detained in a secretive investigation into suspected espionage.
