Heads up: the Israeli movers are back - force lockdown of naval base
Couple of stories I've found:

Kings Bay Naval Base Locked Down

KINGS BAY, Ga. -- A security alert at Kings Bay Naval Submarine Base led to a nearly 3-hour lockdown Friday morning when two foreign nationals attempted to get on the base.

Officials said two men, who were contracted by an Atlanta-based moving company, came to the base to help someone move. One of the men could not produce proper identification.

Then, a search dog alerted guards to a briefcase in the truck.

...

Though the briefcase did not contain any explosives, the two men were handed over to immigration officials.

Suspicious moving van prompt Kings Bay lockdown

The Associated Press - ST. MARYS, Ga.

...

Two Israeli men working for a moving-and-storage company attempted to enter the base about 10:30 a.m. Friday to pick up some items in base housing, said base spokesman Ed Buczek.

One of them was unable to provide security personnel with proper credentials, so base personnel and bomb-sniffing dogs inspected the van.

"The military dogs were alerted to a scent in the cab of the truck," Buczek said. "Guards closed access to the base and notified the Georgia Bureau of Investigation, the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Naval Criminal Investigative Service."

...

Kings Bay is near Sea Island, which will host the G-8 Summit next month.

2. maybe a change of tactics would help - Groucho Marx glasses?
It would probably be about as convincing as the "art student" or "mover" thing.

Right there. In the AP story, the second in my post.

6. Unbelievable

The more "Israeli Movers" that appear - the more creedence is loaned to the original story about their involvement in 911 - a story which was denied.

7. The stories are local, rarely make national news, and nobody
makes the connections and recognizes a pattern. (Except some of us on the Net.)

They're held and quietly deported, and we're not supposed to pay attention.

9. I'm thoroughly disgusted
with Israel's actions right now, its leaders and their policies, and I deeply resent its dictating our foreign policy (I believe the Iraq war was both for oil and for the benefit of Israel), but come on, I do NOT believe it had any involvement in 9/11. That's just too much. I would really need some very, very, very hard and solid evidence to even consider that possibility.

13. No, I believe far more were involved than
just the hijackers, obviously. Like, say, Saudi Arabia and Al-Quada?
