in particular there is one called z street, they applied for a special tax-exempt status and they were really cracked down on, various application processes. they told the auditors -- they contacted washington and said why is it taking so long, and they said -- the auditors did -- that apparently they were supposed to give special scrutiny to groups connected with israel. >>brian: diane gentry is the one who said it. >>gretchen: also religious groups. billy graham's group was looked into. this particular problem came out of the baltimore office of the i.r.s. it appears to be growing. >>brian: try to follow this. evidently the administration's policy with the west bank in israel is to get the settlers out. they want the settlers out. so there is this group, "the new york times" reported this in 2010, that applied for tax-exempt status and they were actually donating to west bank settlement. that is not good if you want to bring middle east peace from the obama perspective to that area. that's get the israelis out into israel proper. these people were put through hoops as the american government said i don't want your organization supported. i don't want them green lighted. the american treasury was giving them problems. >>steve: the question is were people at the i.r.s. saying that the state department doesn't want settlements in israel. z street is trying to build settlements, so let's crack down on them. was that happening? let's hope not. >>gretchen: the interesting thing is how many other groups are out there that we haven't heard about yet that potentially did not agree with president obama's policies? i mean if it's just west bank settlement groups, that's kind of an obscure group is it not? targeting tea parties and targeting patriots, that was a big, huge movement. but if we're going to start finding out about these little entities and all these different groups that didn't agree with specific different policies of this administration, this is going to become a much more widespread investigation. >>brian: like a mob working underneath to forwa
