Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Thursday unequivocally denied a report that his country was spying extensively on the United States, with a focus on the White House in Washington, DC.:
A Politico article published earlier on Thursday alleged there was a massive Israeli intelligence operation in the US that used surveillance devices known as “StingRays” to intercept cellphone communications.
In Sochi, where Netanyahu was set to meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin, the Israeli leader was asked about the report.
The prime minister replied, “There is not a shred of truth to the claim that Israel installed listening devices in the United States. It’s simply an absolute lie.”
“It’s a lie and a falsehood,” Netanyahu emphasized.
He added that he has given “clear instructions” barring Israeli espionage in the US and “these instructions are strictly enforced.”
Israel’s foreign minister, Yisrael Katz, also denied the report, saying, “Israel does not manage any espionage operations in the US.”
“The US and Israel share a lot of intelligence information and work together to intercept threats and strengthening the security of both countries,” he continued.
The article asserted that the devices were used to collect information on President Donald Trump and White House staff.
According to the article, “the FBI and other agencies” were convinced Israel was behind the intelligence operation.
A former senior US intelligence officer was quoted saying, “It was pretty clear that the Israelis were responsible.”
Another source said of Israel’s intelligence services, “They’re all about protecting the security of the Israeli state and they do whatever they feel they have to to achieve that objective.”
Another intelligence source, however, also admitted that the US spied extensively on Israel.
“On the other hand,” the official pointed out, “guess what we do in Tel Aviv?”
This alleged “sensational” spy story makes no sense considering the fact that Israel has had spies in the White House since the days of Harry Truman who was President when Israel was first founded. And every President since then has been surrounded by Jews with dual loyalties, reporting everything they saw and heard back to Tel Aviv. There isn’t one square inch in the White House that isn’t covered by a listening device made in Israel.
The NSA is on record sharing “raw intelligence” data with Israel.
The idea that Israel needs to set up listening technologies in the neighborhood surrounding the White House to find out what’s going on inside is patently absurd. As long as Jared Kushner, a close family friend of Netanyahu, is in the White House, Israel can turn off all their listening devices and just call Kushner directly.
And Trump isn’t concerned over this “revelation” because he knows everything he does is at the behest of Israel, and he probably knows and doesn’t care that every one of his phone calls is considered public information in Tel Aviv.
“I’ve never seen a President — I don’t care who he is — stand up to them. It just boggles the mind. The Israelis know what is going on all the time. I got to the point where I wouldn’t write anything down. If the American people understood what a grip these people have got on our government, they would rise up in arms.” . Our citizens certainly don’t have any idea what goes on.” – Admiral Thomas Moorer, head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, interview, 24 Aug. 1983
Yeah, it seems like the whole psy-op surrounding this spy story was to convince the American pubic that the government isn’t aware of Israeli spying, that it is somehow “news” to the FBI and NSA.
There have been many interesting twists regarding Trump & Israel this week. Trump was betrayed by Israel when they purposely outed & ruined Trump’s Taliban peace talks. Next, Trump fired Bolton when he got wind of this and of Bibi’s plan to annex the Golan Heights after the election next week. Yesterday it was announced that Trump wants to remove some sanctions from Iran in order to spur talks with Iran. Finally, the “leak” of the information of Israel spying on the White House. I wouldn’t be surprised if the leak came from the west wing. The White House/FBI has known about these Israeli devices for a very long time, probably soon after they were installed.
Trump values loyalty over all others. If he is pushing back against Israel he is playing a serious game. JFK found out how serious it was.
The $3 billion the US sends Israel yearly are blackmail payments.
It’s funny how the Jews cant even trust their own people (Jared) enough that they continue to feel the need to spy.
Absolutely true!
I get your point, but….I dunno… I think israhell has spies/listening devices ALL over the country including cellular conversations around the White house. Even tho they completely control the US government, think about how the [paranoid] jew mind works; they would naturally assume that Trump was going outside and using his celphone to go behind their back… Plus, how do you know a jew is lying? His lips are moving. So if nutty-yahoo denies something, its pretty much guaranteed to be true….
Netanyahu denied installing those new listening devices specifically. It’s a technicality. He’s got bugs all over the White House installed for his benefit courtesy of the moles at the NSA.
