TerrorismICE lists Israel among countries that promote, produce, or protect terrorists
DHS’s Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) issued a report describing the methods on which the agency relies to arrest, detain, and, if necessary, deport undesirable aliens; the report contains an appendix which lists “specially designated countries” whose detained nationals should be more closely examined; among the countries whose nationals should be paid special attention as potential terror risks is Israel — which the report considers a “Promoter, Producer, or Protector” of terrorists

In May 2011 DHS released a report titled Supervision of Aliens Commensurate With Risk. The report describes the methodology on which the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) relies to arrest, detain, and, if necessary, deport undesirable aliens.
What has drawn attention to this otherwise rather dry bureaucratic report was the fact that an appendix, which is attached to the report, lists “specially designated countries” whose detained nationals should be more closely examined. The Algemeiner reports that among the countries whose nationals should be paid special attention as potential terror risks is Israel — which the report considers a “Promoter, Producer, or Protector” of terrorists
Christensen also told the Algemeiner that DHS list of thirty-six nations does not necessarily fault a listed government’s policies, but rather, examines the possibility that a suspect from that country might have terrorist ties.
The list includes a number of other close U.S. allies, including Turkey, Bahrain, Morocco, and Philippines, as well as nations experiencing internal fighting, such as Sudan and Somalia. Israel was not on the list released in 2008, but is on the list released in 2011. ICE declined to say who put Israel on the list or when Israel was put there.
