Why would exposing this hurt Israel?
I ask because I think you may be right. I’ve often wondered what information they have on Hussein and wished they would release it.
I hadn’t considered your angle before.
Perhaps they think it would come to nothing here, having taken our measure. Grim thought, that. Worse, perhaps they’re keeping it in reserve for when things really get out of hand.
What are your thoughts?
It is possible that the “leaked” tape is for public consumption (read Muslims) as it puts daylight between Obama and Israel, and that may be exactly what Obama wants.
