"Urban Moving"

In the quiet expanse of the Mojave Desert, a mystery unfolds.

A railcar, once heavy with

60,000 pounds of ammonium nitrate, is found empty.

This isn't just any cargo; it's a substance with

a notorious past and dual uses that can nurture

crops or, in the wrong hands, level buildings.

Departing Cheyenne, Wyoming on April 12,

the railcar's journey to California was meant to be routine.

Yet, two weeks later, the discovery of the

barren container in the desert sparked concern.

The initial theory? A leak through the railcar's bottom gate.

But as days turned into weeks, the missing

ammonium nitrate remained unaccounted for, and

the silence from authorities grew louder.

Ammonium nitrate's volatile history is well-documented.

From the Oklahoma City bombing to the devastating

explosion in Beirut, this chemical compound

has been at the heart of numerous tragedies.

Its disappearance from a train raises alarms, not

just for the potential of misuse but for the sheer

scale of the missing quantity.

Dyno Nobel, the manufacturer, reported

the incident to the National Response Center on May 10.

Yet, the lapse in time from disappearance to

report has raised eyebrows. Union

Pacific suggests a simple leak, but the

intact seals on arrival in Saltdale tell a different story.

The FBI remains tight-lipped, while the Federal

Railroad Administration hints at accidental leakage.

The specter of ammonium nitrate's past looms large.

It has been the catalyst for destruction and death, from

Texas City in 1947 to Madison,

Wisconsin in 1970, and more

recently, in West, Texas. Each

incident is a stark reminder of the compound's destructive potential.

As the investigation trudges on, the public is

left with more questions than answers.

Was it a leak, an oversight, or something more nefarious?

The route's remote nature complicates the search, and

the silence from federal agencies is disconcerting.

A Dyno Nobel spokesman assures there's no public

danger, suggesting the pellets scattered

harmlessly along the tracks. Yet, the

whereabouts of the 30 tons of ammonium nitrate

remain a disquieting enigma. For nearly two

decades, one of the most overlooked and little-known

arrests made in the aftermath of the September 11

attacks was that of the so-called “High

Fivers,” or the “Dancing Israelis.”

However, new information released by the FBI

on May 7 has brought fresh scrutiny to the

possibility that the “Dancing Israelis,” at

least two of whom were known Mossad operatives, had

prior knowledge of the attacks on the World Trade Center.

seen dancing and laughing while filming before and after the attacks.

At least one eyewitness interviewed by the

FBI had seen the Israelis’ van in the parking

lot as early as 8:00 a.m. that day, more

than 40 minutes before the attack.

The story received coverage in U.S. mainstream

media at the time but has since been largely forgotten.

The men — Sivan Kurzberg, Paul

Kurzberg, Oded Ellner, Yaron

Shmuel, and Omar Marmari — were

subsequently apprehended by law enforcement

and claimed to be Israeli tourists on a

“working holiday” in the United States where they were

employed by a moving company, Urban Moving Systems.

Upon his arrest, Sivan Kurzberg told the

arresting officer, “We are Israeli; we

are not your problem. Your problems are our

problems, The Palestinians are the problem.” One

report from ABC News dated June

2002 suggests that the Bush administration

intervened in the investigation. That report

states that “Israeli and U.S. government

officials worked out a deal — deporting the Mossad

agents back to Israel. a cover-up seems to

have happened, based on the destruction of records and

conclusions that did not add up.

You be the judge.
