Netanyahu said to have offered Lewinsky tapes for Pollard
The Times of Israel ^ | July 23 2014 | REBECCA SHIMONI STOIL

Posted on 11/18/2023 5:37:20 AM PST by euram

WASHINGTON — Israel attempted to use tapes of former US president Bill Clinton’s steamy conversations with intern Monica Lewinsky to leverage the release of Jonathan Pollard, a new book on the Clinton family’s political enterprises has claimed. In the book, titled “Clinton Inc: The Audacious Rebuilding of a Political Machine,” author Daniel Halper relies on on-the-record interviews with former officials together with a close analysis of documents termed “the Monica Files” to paint a salacious – and uncomplimentary – picture of one of the most prominent political families in the United States.

Halper noted that “intelligence officials in the United States or Israel will of course not confirm on the record the extent or substance of Israeli eavesdropping,” but also cited an article published in 2000 by the magazine Insight, that claimed that Israel had “penetrated four White House telephone lines and was able to relay real-time conversations on those lines from a remote site outside the White House directly to Israel for listening and recording.”

Haha ha !
I don’t buy it. But truth nowadays IS stranger than fiction. And it sounds like a great deal — maybe toss in Obama’s real birth certificate too? Ha !

I wonder today if the MSM would cover any sex videos or label them disinformation, or if politicians would even be ashamed.

FTA-— “Israeli intel will not confirm the extent or substance of Israeli eavesdropping on the WH (and other US govt officials?). Yet in 2000, ‘Insight Magazine’ reported Israel intel had “penetrated four White House telephone lines and relayed real-time conversations on those lines from a remote site outside the White House directly to Israel for listening and recording.”


Wow. Thirteen years ago, Israel had high tech to spy on US govt officials.....
but they didnt have a clue that Hamas was about to attack them a month ago?


And this——An integral part of the billions of US tax dollars flowing to Israel is that the aid is conditioned on their sharing w/ the US, the crucial intel it gathers in the volatile Mideast.

9/11 was plotted in the Mideast. It tragically demonstrated, that the safety and security of US families, their very lives imperiled.........when we dont get Mideast intel.

Our “greatest ally” spies on us and blackmails our political leaders? I’m shocked. Mossad’s Jeffrey Epstein is unavailable for comment.

REFERENCE——Since 1973, Israel has received more than
$120 billion US tax dollars in MILITARY assistance alone,
including “three special US aid” packages:
<>US billions just for signing the Israel-Egypt peace treaty
<>US billions just for Israel’s withdrawal from the Sinai.
<>US billions just for redeployment of Israeli forces
<>rebuilding Israeli air bases in the Negev cost US taxpayers $5 billion.

An integral part of the billions of US tax dollars flowing to Israel is that
the aid is conditioned on their sharing w/ the US, the crucial intel Israel gathers
in the volatile Mideast.

Besides weaponry, Israel also receives billions in
<><> US economic and US humanitarian foreign aid,
<><>US tax dollars to support Israel’s broad economic development,
<><>US tax dollars to support sociopolitical stability,
<><> and non-military support related to Israel’s pressing security needs.

Military aid and armaments from US taxpayers have blanketed Israel over the years. They have more than enough resources, now, to nail Hamas and Hezbollah. Wealthy Israel has very low debt, and actually had a budget surplus this year.

The US is $33 trillion in debt, a debt which future generations are saddled with.

There is a difference between really having the ability.... and Insight magazine just claiming they have the ability.
As it says, nobody will confirm it, which is true of any lie...you just have to take a presstitute’s word for it.

Israel had “penetrated four White House telephone lines and was able to relay real-time conversations on those lines from a remote site outside the White House directly to Israel for listening and recording.”

I don't imagine that was very hard because of the phone calls that Clinton made to Lewinski at the Watergate. Either the calls were in the clear, or Clinton had an encryption device put into her apartment.

And BTW, you can bet your butt that Israel got all of the Secret and Top-Secret documents that Mrs. Bill Clinton kept on her unsecure server too, not to mention the Russians, the Chinese ...

Our “dearest friends” in the Mid-east, Israel and Saudi Arabia, spy on our President, and arrange terrorists to attack NY City.

Aren’t we so lucky to have such dear friends?

Every nation spies on every other nation, if they can. That is not an excuse, it is just reality. If you think that the United States doesn’t also spy on Israel, you have another thing coming…and Canada and Britain and Germany and Japan, and South Korea, and every other nation. Everybody does it.

In his defense for spying on the US, Jonathan Pollard resorted to victimization.....
he portrayed himself as an “Israeli patriot” who stole US intel to prevent another Holocaust.

But during questioning by the FBI, Pollard admitted that before spying for Israel, he provided Australia with classified information in an effort to become a spy for that country.

Ronald J. Olive, the Naval Investigative Service Special Agent who investigated Pollard and wrote the book, “Capturing Jonathan Pollard: How One of the Most Notorious Spies in American History Was Brought to Justice,” writes that Pollard tried to spy for Australia, but, as usual, the mainstream press ignored this fact.
