Arab terrorists who in the past served terms in Israeli prisons warned prisoners currently being held for terrorism to watch out for a group of undercover informers seeking to trip them up, who are known as birds.

"After three days of interrogation I was taken to a room with other Palestinian prisoners, who started talking to me and getting to know me. One said he'd shot at Israeli targets, and another said his brother had been killed, so I thought I was in a room full of revolutionaries," Azzam said.
I mentioned I was craving sweets, and the next day they got me some," he said, noting it was a type that it was not possible to get hold of in prison. "They treated me well."
And it worked. "After this treatment and hearing of their heroics against the occupation, I told them what I did and how a friend and I burned the bus."

Ecclesiastes 10:20
Curse not the king, no not in thy thought; and curse not the rich in thy bedchamber: for a bird of the air shall carry the voice, and that which hath wings shall tell the matter.
Waiting for the left to call this torture......
