US and British intelligence managed to crack a top encryption system for Israel’s Air Force decades ago, and for the past 18 years the two have been intercepting communication from them en masse, in what Israeli officials are describing as the worst leak in their history.
Much of the initial reporting centered on the nations capturing live feeds of Israeli surveillance drones, so as to see what the Israeli drones see, along with the drones’ flight path around Israel and the surrounding area.
It goes deeper than that though, covering transmissions from manned aircraft and base-to-base communication around Israel, which the US and Britain were said to have carefully monitored for signs of a unilateral Israeli attack on Iran.
The discovery was initially broken by The Intercept, by way of Edward Snowden, who provided video stills of the drones. The communications were captured at a listening post on Cyprus. The White House has refused to comment, but did say it only spies when it has a good reason to.
It’s not really surprising that the west wanted to know in advance if Israel was planning to bomb Iran. Embarrassing for the Israelis though as it shows no one trusts them and their security fortress is permeable.
Wonder if Bibi will run crying to his pimps in Congress?
For the record…Bibi’s the john…Congress is where the whoores can be found.
So what and does it matter ?
AT least NSA has been doing something worthwhile.
All’s fair, as they say…
This is not big news since Zionists have totally penetrated London and Washington. The real political problem is the reverse: pro-Israeli operatives inside of Washington and London who successfully steer these larger powers into war and conflict.
Israeli espionage and political penetration is why Americans are paying for (and participating in) proxy wars engineered by crypto-Israelis against Israel’s regional foes. The Israeli tail is wagging the British and American poodles. There is no end in sight.
No, the British and American corporate rich are wagging the tail of the Israel corporate rich, which wage the tail of all their hand-picked politicians.
Well they definitely have good reason to spy on the apartheid regime that is armed with nuclear weapons.
As well they should, and on all other hostile governments.
But, what if it’s all fiction to fool Iran into being terrorized?
For US military, does it not tell Israel politicians what to say and do?
