This is another Jonathan Pollard type deal. The US should be giving up info on Iran, as Israel has much greater concerns than the US (distance etc)

So? Intelligence gathering is intelligence gathering. People get caught and rules are rules.

Don't know about that. Maybe another employee did the same thing. This just came out on the news today.

It is not his position to make determination on what information is "passed-on"...
He should fry....

I remember a story of someone passing info on to AIPAC some months ago. This guy's "indescretion" was in 2003. I think it's the same case.

Look, spying is spying be it for enemies (Iran, NK, France) or Allies (UK, Israel, Australia).

Isn't Israel our ally?
Mostly, but the interests of the U.S. and the interests of Israel are not always the same. If he wants to work for Israel, he shouldn't be working at our Pentagon.

So? Intelligence gathering is intelligence gathering.Unless the intelligence is sold to other countries aggresive to the US, like china.

I don't know the rules. That is why I'm asking.
I was just wondering if the analyst shared to help Israel in an area or if it was done to hurt us.
Since it is an ally, I naively think it wouldn't hurt us.

When I first clicked the thread, I thought it was an older article too.

He's probably looking at 25 to Life, possibly the death penalty, depending on nature of info involved.
And Sandy Burglar gets a pat on the wrist..

Perhaps we trade info for info from Israel, and if we just gave it away we would get less in return. Anyway, the larger point is this: Who decides what to give away? That answer can't be every analyst on their own discretion, which is what this guy did.
