    When Israel's plans continue to get leaked and leaked and leaked of course they are not going to share their plans with the USA. If you were Saudi Arabia or any other player in the Middle East would you be candid with this administration?

    Leaked documents show US intelligence on Israel’s plans to attack Iran, sources say | CNN Politics

    Did Joe Biden do this? I doubt it and would hope not. Still, it's Biden's administration and it has happened more than once. That which gets rewarded gets repeated - if no one is shutting this stuff down it's tacit approval.

    I find your new found concern over document handling to be quite funny.

    Biden may as well be a DEI hire. "I think he has been wrong on nearly every major foreign policy and national security issue over the past four decades." That was Robert Gates in 2014, Obama's former Defense secretary. Right around the time Biden had just begun dabbling in Ukraine. Nobody should be surprised the world is on fire under his leadership.

    As for Israel, I think Netanyahu rolls his eyes every time Biden opens his trap. And what a brilliant start for Kamala (assuming she had a chance at victory) by snubbing his address to Congress. These people are clowns and they need not be anywhere near the Oval Office. Say what you will about Trump, but he. kept. us. safe.

    I would not be surprised to learn there’s a radicalized Islamist behind the leak. I expect there are quite a few scattered throughout the US “intelligence” services especially with liberal’s love for DEI.

    I doubt the administration leaked it. Probably came from an analyst who saw the report.

    Reminds of the leak ahead of the Ukraine invasion, that ended up being a low level national guard “cybersecurity” expert who fell into a trap with infowars type conspiracy type thinking and who wanted to impress his gamerbro buddies with the type of intel he had access to.

    Pentagon leaker Jack Teixeira agrees to accept 16-year prison sentence


    Was pretty crazy that totally unprofessional guy was able to access info that seemed at the time should have been extremely high level. Our govt definitely has a propensity to overclassify documents (millions and millions and millions of them), but in cases like Teixeira it revealed that in rare cases documents are effectively underclassified.

    I'm pretty sure these leaked documents just accompany the ones given to a foreign country by the president's son, who received a totally undeserved top secret security clearance.

    Later, that son's investment fund will receive $2 billion from the same foreign country, and it will pay no returns, but generate massive fees.

    Wait! This already happened?! Am I a few years behind on this?*








    * Funny how difficult it is to remain aware of all the Trump grift and criminality.

    The funny thing about this post is one of the items Former President Trump is under indictment for… you guessed it (not)… possessing and revealing classified plans for a hypothetical Iranian invasion! He did so before an audience at Mar-A-Lago in 2021.



    I assume those Trump docs were totally different if not out of date compared to this latest intel leak, but it’s amusing nonetheless.

    The leak probably came from a public restroom used to store classified documents

    The ONLY prudent thing to do is become seriously UNinvolved in the Middle East.

    Which is why we won’t do it.

    Trump is the ultimate DEI hire, the Trump who entered politics is a character created by NBC and Mark Burnett for the Apprentice reality television show. The character is a business genius when, in fact, the real Donald Trump other than back in a few successes in the late '70s and early '80s has a long history of business failures, multiple bankruptcies, scams and had to be bailed out by his father to the tune of over $400 million.
    From one of the producers of the Apprentice:
    NBC's former chief marketer: "I helped create a monster" by promoting Trump
