The FBI asked Israeli police to help analyze fingerprints found in the burglarized offices of an American political consultant who is advising the Labor Party candidate for prime minister in Israel’s upcoming elections. Investigators are exploring the possibility that the burglars who carried out two recent break-ins at the Washington office of pollster Stanley Greenberg are Israeli. American investigators are also verifying a report by a taxi driver, who said that on the night of one of the break-ins he had driven Hebrew- speaking passengers who asked to be let off at Greenberg’s office.
