In an unprecedented move, the Pentagon has officially elevated Israel's counterintelligence threat level to its highest possible category, driven by surging internal alarm that this primary Mideast regional ally is aggressively ramping up espionage operations targeting senior US officials - even Trump's own top Iran negotiator.

Imagine that. I'm shocked. Shocked I tell you. "Allies" spy on each other as well as enemies. For all the Pearl clutching over pro-Russians in the US the pro-Isreal crowd dwarfs any other foreign allegiance I have ever seen. And not just Jews. Many many evangelical Christians. To deny this is sticking your head in the sand.

That doesn't mean Isreal runs the US. But it also doesn't mean they don't have massive influence and possible control over key figures. It's dumb to pretend this is not possible.

What is interesting to me is that so many of us have long recognized that this problem is present but very recently this has become even more obvious and impossible to ignore.
