****BREAKING -ISRAEL GAVE TRUMP THE CLASSIFIED INFO HE GAVE TO RUSSIA****





WASHINGTON — The classified intelligence that President Trump disclosed in a meeting last week with Russian officials at the White House was provided by Israel, according to a current and a former American official familiar with how the United States obtained the information. The revelation adds a potential diplomatic complication to the episode.


Israel is one of the United States’ most important allies and a major intelligence collector in the Middle East. The revelation that Mr. Trump boasted about some of Israel’s most sensitive information to the Russians could damage the relationship between the two countries. It also raises the possibility that the information could be passed to Iran, Russia’s close ally and Israel’s main threat in the Middle East.

This is a very bad thing, hopefully people will see this for the betrayal it is, but his supporters are simply digging in. It goes to show the GOP has never been a friend or ally to Israel, and it never will be. Israel is a means to an end and a cash cow, nothing more.
