by Rebecca Anna Stoil, The Jerusalem Post, Israel-After months of discussion and planning, the Israel Police officially established on the first day of 2008 a new unit - nicknamed the "Israeli FBI" - and revealed its official name: Lahav (blade). The word "blade," police said, signified the sharpness and precision needed to carry out the unit's tough assignment - fighting organized crime and corruption at an institutional level. The "four" signifies the four specialist investigative units integrated within its auspices - the National Fraud Squad, the Security-Economic Unit, the Serious and International Crimes Unit, and the anti-car-theft unit, Etgar.
