It seems to have been Israel Trump betrayed
The New York Times is reporting that the "close Middle Eastern ally" which was the source of the intelligence President Trump blabbed to the Russian foreign minister and ambassador in the Oval Office without its permission is, as I suspected, Israel.
NBC reports that "government officials" have confirmed it. CNN cites diplomatic sources to the same effect.
Meanwhile, Newsweek is reporting that U.S. intelligence officials warned Israel against sharing sensitive intelligence information with Trump. Its source is Israeli newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth, which reported the story in January.
Sen. Bob Corker (R-Tenn), the chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, responded to the incident by saying, “The White House has got to do something soon to bring itself under control and in order. It’s got to happen."
Don't expect Mossad and Shin Bet to be sharing much information about an area of the world critical to American interests with the American intelligence community in the near future, no matter what the Foreign Ministry says. Israeli intelligence assets may have been compromised by a location Mr. Trump reportedly included in his statement to the Russian diplomats.
Nice work, Mr. President.
