U.S. publishes details of missile base Israel wanted kept secret

TEL AVIV, Israel — Israel’s military fumed Monday over the discovery that the U.S. government had revealed details of a top-secret Israeli military installation in published bid requests.

The Obama administration had promised to build Israel a state-of-the-art facility to house a new ballistic-missile defense system, the Arrow 3. As with all Defense Department projects, detailed specifications were made public so that contractors could bid on the $25 million project. The specifications included more than 1,000 pages of details on the facility, ranging from the heating and cooling systems to the thickness of the walls.

"If an enemy of Israel wanted to launch an attack against a facility, this would give him an easy how-to guide. This type of information is closely guarded and its release can jeopardize the entire facility," said an Israeli military official who commented on the publication of the proposal but declined to be named because he wasn’t authorized to discuss the facility. He declined to say whether plans for the facility have been altered as a result of the disclosure.

"This is more than worrying, it is shocking," he said.

It’s not shocking, it’s to be expected.

The sotero regime is allied with the enemies of Israel.

If I were Israel I’m not sure I should have trusted an Obama DoD in the first place. But still. Surely they TOLD the DoD that this was not to be disseminated to the public, but just the bidders.

Our DoD leaders are totally out of touch with the real world....

...You have to wonder if these guys would have put the Normandy Invasion out for public bidding.

Thanks Nachum.

Sure, but Obama supports late-term abortion on demand, gay marriage, and stands with his poor suffering fellow moslems when the political winds shift in an ugly direction.

The Saboteur-In-Chief is at it again. President 0bama is a security risk and should be impeached (at a minimum).
