Snowden Docs Expose Deep Israeli, U.S. Spy Ties

HeadlineAug 05, 2014

Documents provided by Edward Snowden have revealed the deep ties between Israeli and U.S. intelligence agencies. Writing at The Intercept, Glenn Greenwald says the leaks show “Israeli aggression would be impossible without the constant, lavish support and protection of the U.S. government.” A 2013 document describes a “far-reaching technical and analytic relationship” between the National Security Agency and its Israeli counterpart against “mutually agreed upon geographic targets.” The partnership includes a “dedicated communications line” supporting “the exchange of raw material, as well as daily analytic and technical correspondence.”
