Every spy movie ever: if we tell you then we must kill you.
CSS Central Security Service response to Nadeem Bitar's employment

You want to know about our national security secrets?
Sure, we'll show you.
Why did the Argrathi think Miles O'Brien, Star Trek Deep Space Nine chief engineer, was trying to spy on alien holographic secrets?
(Gemini AI artificial intelligence answer)
In the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine season 4 episode ["Hard Time,"]
(https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Hard_Time_%28episode%29)
the Argrathi Authority arrested and convicted Chief Miles O'Brien of
espionage simply because he asked too many technical questions about their
technology [1, 2] .
The Argrathi did not explicitly accuse him of stealing "holographic secrets,"
but rather viewed his professional curiosity as a national security threat. The
misunderstanding stemmed from a combination of O'Brien's engineer instincts and
the Argrathi's extreme, paranoid justice system: [1, 2]
## 1. Natural Engineering Curiosity
As the Chief of Operations for
[Deep Space
Nine](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_Time_%28Star_Trek:_Deep_Space_Nine%29),
O'Brien was naturally inclined to understand how foreign technology worked.
While on a diplomatic and scientific mission to the planet Argratha in the Gamma
Quadrant, he became highly intrigued by their advanced capabilities.
He began poking around, probing into their systems, and asking highly specific,
deeply technical questions that crossed a line for local authorities. [1, 2, 3]
## 2. Extreme Argrathi Xenophobia and Paranoia
The Argrathi Authority was incredibly protective of its proprietary
tech—specifically their advanced mind-control, mind-altering, and simulation
technologies.
To an insular and paranoid alien government, an outside military technician
asking highly detailed questions about critical infrastructure looked exactly
like a covert operative gathering intelligence for a future attack or technology
theft. [1, 2, 4, 5, 6]
## 3. Swift and Automated Justice
Instead of launching a diplomatic inquiry or a long trial, the Argrathi justice
system acted immediately.
Because they punished criminals by rapidly implanting decades worth of
artificial memories of harsh imprisonment directly into a subject's brain, they
executed his sentence in a matter of hours.
By the time Captain Sisko and Starfleet even found out he had been detained,
O'Brien had already "served" his entire 20-year sentence in his mind and was
handed back to the Federation with a bureaucratic apology. [1, 4, 5, 7, 8]
A short while after I apply for a job in the NSA National Security
Administration, I'm sitting in my business law class and the professor said he
has contacts who told him that “one of your classmates applied for a job in the
NSA”.
I guess he was a lawyer like Bill and Hillary Clinton,
but his class wasn't about the Uniform Commercial Code,
it included macroeconomics such as illegal monopolies,
(and skip "the acceleration of money" for lack of time when studying the
creation and circulation of dollars).
So basically he's announcing if anyone in the classroom is planning to do a
Levine Boesky Milken thing,
one of their classmates is applying for national-security, Law-enforcement.
Then the professor asks the person who applied to raise their hand.
Now in CUNY Baruch, I was in the class of Professor Katz or something, probably
finance,
and he told us how Dennis Levine,
was one of his students in that very same lecture hall but seemed to have
learned the wrong lessons,
and continued to explain Levine's crimes,
(see FOOTNOTES),
with a very entertaining skit about Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs,
saying he must have been at fault for doing something wrong teaching Levine,
and how he wanted us to graduate with the right lessons.
And here my SUNY Buffalo, Amherst Campus, business law professor is proudly
announcing his insider information, insider crime, capabilities.
Since I knowingly applied to a super secret agency,
and I just found out how leaky the NSA are from my blabbermouth professor,
so of course I'm not going to admit anything.
Nobody raised their hand.
I had a lot of practice since elementary school doing card tricks with the magic
castle code of “a magician never tells their secret”,
(except when Penn and Teller are trying to force the Magician's Union at the Los
Angeles Magic Castle to up their game,
the way Nadeem Bitar's Space City Speed Gospel, poverty as a second language,
charity religions,
is trying to force the
DemocratRepublican, Federal, incumbent seniority-system
to up their game
of moral
high-ground with ethical-superiority
by President Ronald Reagan's
"stay on message", “get religious with states' rights”).
The highway into hell is wide and crowded - Matthew chapter 7 verse 13, KJV
Bible.
Trying to raise the moral and ethical standards of the DemocratRepublican,
incumbent, seniority-system,
Cult of Space City Speed Gospel Denial
is probably as futile as trying to,
(Psalm One verse one, KJV Bible),
stand in the way of a cattle stampede,
or block a crowd of stampeding sinners
in a $40 trillion, national-debt, ponzi-pyramid scheme
that babies and yet to be born citizens are supposed to pay
while national-security insiders with secret-weapons
and their loyalty-up and loyalty-down, Hitler-Youth, dumb-jock, sport-hero,
athlete-bodyguards,
(Sieg Heil Banzai, blitzkrieg like a tsunami, Siegfried Line Siegfried Line, We
all Stand in A Buffalo Stance),
live like every spy a prince or Biblical King Herod or Pontius Pilate.
Futile, because the DemocratRepublican, incumbent, seniority-system
keep choosing the old ways
that used to crown them the winners of World War Two
instead of the Losers of Vietnam.
The rich stay rich
by using monopolies
from secret-weapons
inherited from their national-security families
to force the poor to stay poor in poverty slavery
such as the RICO Mafia Nazi style,

shadow-banning and cancelling and removing and scrubbing
of viral social-media and mainstream-media,

from
Space City Speed Gospel's Nadeem Bitar.
However, Space City Speed Gospel's Nadeem Bitar
chose the wisdom of The Holy Bible,
by believing that Jesus The Christ of The Holy Bible told
Space City Speed Gospel's Nadeem Bitar
to be a servant or slave in better heaven
instead to be a prince or king in worse hell.

Dennis Levine, an investment banker at [Drexel Burnham Lambert],
served as a key tipster for arbitrageur [Ivan Boesky].
Levine funneled material nonpublic information regarding impending corporate
takeovers and mergers to Boesky, who then used the tips to illegally trade
stocks and amass over $50 million in illicit profits. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
In exchange for these lucrative insider tips: [6]
* Boesky agreed to pay Levine a percentage of the profits made on the trades,
which eventually amounted to a proposed lump-sum payment of $2.4 million. [7]
* While "stock parking" (the practice of hiding stock ownership by having a
third party hold it to evade regulatory reporting) was a broader practice in
their network, Levine's primary role for Boesky was supplying the crucial,
nonpublic corporate intelligence that fueled Boesky's arbitrage operations. [1,
7, 8]
If you would like, I can:
* Explain how the SEC uncovered their insider trading ring
* Detail the role of Michael Milken in their illegal arrangements
* Outline the charges and penalties Dennis Levine faced when his scheme was
caught
The Caribbean island where these stocks were bought is [New Providence island]
in the Bahamas, specifically through a financial institution in the capital city
of Nassau. [1, 2]
When Dennis Levine routed his massive, illicit insider trading orders through
[Bank Leu International] (the Bahamian subsidiary of a Swiss bank),
the "natives"—meaning the local Bahamian bank managers and executives—noticed
his incredibly accurate knack for buying corporate takeover stocks right before
they skyrocketed. [2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
## The "Piggyback" Trading Scheme [4]
* Bank Managers Copied the Trades: Bank Leu executives like Bernhard Meier and
Bruno Pletscher realized Levine was likely using insider corporate information.
They began secretly copying, or "piggybacking," his trades for their own
personal accounts to make easy profits. [1, 7, 8]
* The Trail Spread to Stockbrokers: To mask Levine's huge trading volumes from
U.S. regulators, the bank split up his buy orders and funneled them through
local stockbrokers. [1]
* Brokers Copied Them Too: Upon seeing the highly profitable incoming orders
from Bank Leu, those stockbrokers also began copying the trades for themselves.
[1, 8]
This rampant, localized copycat trading ultimately unraveled the entire
multi-million dollar scheme. The massive, sudden surges in trade volumes for
obscure companies caught the attention of Wall Street compliance systems,
resulting in an anonymous tip that led the [Securities and Exchange Commission
(SEC)]
If you want, I can:
* Detail how the SEC cracked the Bahamas' strict bank secrecy laws to catch them
* Share what happened to the Bank Leu executives who copied the trades
* Explain the anonymous letter from Caracas that originally blew the whistle on
the brokers
Let me know what you'd like to explore next.
[Dennis Levine] gathered the insider information he sold to [Ivan Boesky] from
two main sources:
his own work as a mergers and acquisitions (M&A) investment banker
and a highly organized network of tipsters he built across major Wall Street
firms [1, 2, 3] .
## 1. Levine’s Own Deals
As a high-ranking investment banker at firms like [Drexel Burnham Lambert],
Smith Barney, and Lehman Brothers, Levine had direct access to highly sensitive,
nonpublic data. He knew which corporations were about to launch hostile
takeovers, tender offers, or leveraged buyouts before the public did. [1, 2, 4,
5, 6]
## 2. The Wall Street Insider Ring
To maximize his information pool, Levine built a covert "swap network" of
younger, ambitious professionals at rival firms. They routinely traded
confidential corporate secrets stolen from their employers' upcoming files. The
primary members of Levine’s ring included: [1, 3, 6, 7]
* [Robert Wilkis] – An investment banker at Lazard Frères & Co.
* [Ira Sokolow] – An investment banker at Lehman Brothers Kuhn Loeb
* David Brown – An investment professional at Goldman Sachs
* Ilan Reich – A corporate takeover lawyer at the powerful law firm Wachtell,
Lipton, Rosen & Katz [1, 7, 8]
Whenever Levine got a hot piece of data—either from his own desk or from his
moles at Goldman Sachs, Lazard, or Lehman Brothers—he would call Ivan Boesky
from public payphones to pass along the tip. Boesky would then use his
multi-million dollar arbitrage fund to aggressively buy up the target stocks.
[1, 3, 9, 10]
If you'd like, I can:
* Detail the specific corporate takeover deals (like FMC or Nabisco) that they
rigged
* Explain how payphones and code names were used to keep the network hidden
* Discuss the payout agreement and how much Boesky owed Levine for these tips

The anonymous letter from Caracas was the single catalyst that unraveled Wall
Street’s largest insider trading ring in the 1980s. [1]
## The Arrival of the Letter
In May 1985, a one-page, typed anonymous letter postmarked from [Caracas],
Venezuela, arrived at the New York City headquarters of the brokerage firm
Merrill Lynch. The writer explicitly accused two local stockbrokers in Merrill
Lynch's Caracas branch—Carlos Zubillaga and Max Hofer—of trading on
confidential, nonpublic corporate information. [1, 2, 3]
The letter noted that these brokers had demonstrated an impossible "uncanny
knack" for aggressively buying up shares of obscure companies right before
massive corporate takeover or merger announcements sent stock prices soaring.
[2, 4]
## The Internal Investigation
Merrill Lynch's compliance department immediately launched an internal review
and flew Zubillaga and Hofer from Venezuela to New York for intense questioning.
A look at their records validated the letter: the brokers were indeed making
highly profitable, perfectly timed investments. [4, 5]
When pressed on where they were getting their information, the Caracas brokers
pointed up the chain to Brian Campbell, a broker in Merrill Lynch’s New York
office. The brokers had simply been copycatting ("piggybacking") Campbell's
personal trades. [5, 6]
## Connecting to the Bahamas and Dennis Levine
Merrill Lynch turned their findings over to the [Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC)].
When federal investigators audited Campbell's trading history, they discovered
that his remarkably accurate investment choices exactly mirrored a massive,
recurring flow of trade orders originating from an omnibus account at Bank Leu
International in the Bahamas. [6, 7, 8]
Unbeknownst to the copycatting brokers, that Bahamian account belonged entirely
to [Dennis Levine]. [8]
## Why the Letter Blew the Whole Ring Open
The letter initiated a rapid domino effect that shattered the entire ring:
* The SEC forced Bank Leu to cooperate: Armed with proof of the copycat trades,
U.S. authorities pressured Bahamian officials to bypass their strict bank
secrecy laws. [8]
* [Levine] was arrested: Faced with the bank's records, [Levine] was arrested in
1986. [6, 9]
* [Levine] turned in [Ivan Boesky]: To secure a plea deal, [Levine] exposed his
network, including the multi-millionaire arbitrageur [Ivan Boesky]. [6, 10]
* Boesky turned in [Michael Milken]: [Boesky] subsequently wore a wire for the
government, providing the evidence needed to bring down junk-bond king [Michael
Milken] and Drexel Burnham Lambert. [3]
The identity of the person in Caracas who mailed the letter was never formally
publicized. However, their single tip transformed a routine compliance issue
into a historic legal flood that permanently reshaped Wall Street regulatory
enforcement. [1, 3]
