Traitors! Traitors in the WH. Traitors in the media.
B@st@rds.
I think that we must expect this as a matter of course until the election. The leaks are aimed at Israel and clearly are aimed at undermining them as an ally.
The question is: Why?
If we look at this rationally, no one who wants to keep an ally or her supporters would violate the security like this. Therefore, it would be reasonable to assume that the administration wants to undermine its relationship with Israel.
And again: Why?
It is no secret that both the intelligence community, much of Europe and the entire middle east fantasizes of a world with no Israel. How better to weaken Israel’s defensibility than to expose her defenses and strengthen her enemies? Communists always think long term. This is a program. It has been developing for some time, since the day Obama walked into office.
The task was complex. He had to both placate certain defense and money interests while giving himself “plausible deniability” of any complicit involvement in the scheme. He had to look like he was supportive while systematically subverting Israel through a variety of proxies.
Now that Egypt and Syria are destabilized, Israel now must devote resources to the Sinai, Gaza, and the Golan Heights. Israeli military planners have already publicly stated they will see a war soon. As in 1967, it would be on multiple fronts, Russia will be providing tactical support while, just as Nixon did, we have a president who would withhold military aid to gain political advantage.
In 1967, Israel threatened nuclear war and Nixon (Kissinger) caved. Nixon was a pragmatist, Obama is a hard core idealogue, This war, if it were to occur, would not be a 7 day war.
My 2 cents....
