By the way … as long as we’re digging up old headlines
Does anyone remember that “fake news” story that classified intelligence assessments of defensive capabilities of “one of our allies” was improperly retained by Trump and potentially/probably shared?
If you’re wondering how Hamas’s attack on Israel has been so effective against Israeli air defenses, you have to ask where they got their intel from … and virtually everyone agrees that it’s Iran.
But where would Iran get this information? They’re clearly not capable of defeating Israeli air defenses on their own — Israeli air defenses were literally developed with Iranian-supplied terrorist groups in mind and has been effective for a long time now. So Iran clearly needed to get this information from a more capable allied nation … like Russia … The country whom they’ve been buddy buddy with lately … providing their own drones for the war in Ukraine and experience at evading western sanctions.
Certainly coincidental …but what does Russia get out of this arrangement other than helping out a buddy? Well … for one, it knocks the war in Ukraine right out of the news cycle. That’s good news for them. But if you think a layer deeper, if the Americans are committed to providing weapons, intelligence and potentially even personnel to their ally in Israel, what other beneficiary/ally might suffer as a result?
