Summary

Israeli officials are furious that the leaked Signal group chat involving senior Trump administration officials compromised sensitive Israeli intelligence from a human source in Yemen.

The chat, accidentally including journalist Jeffrey Goldberg, contained details about U.S. airstrikes targeting Houthi militants.

While Trump officials claim no classified information was shared, sources tell CBS News that Israeli intelligence is angry their human intelligence was exposed.

The leak has strained U.S.-Israel relations, and Trump has privately expressed frustration over the fallout from the exposure.

      It wouldn’t have even been possible if they had been using the proper channels for communications.

    Since the policy in this country is now ISRAEL First, this is the only set of people that matter when it comes to being pissed off about this.

    Trump government giving away intelligence from other countries? They would never!

    Well, that is ignoring all the times when they did, of course

    I still remember Dutch intelligence stopped sharing data with the US after trump (in his previous stint) took the info that Dutch intelligence had hacked Russian intelligence and were monitoring them, and just plainly told this to the world.

    Israel is literally sending the US targets to bomb and Trump is simply signing off on it.

    A foreign country controls the US military.

    Frankly, the Israelis deserve it for not learning their lesson last time. Even if you think you’re trump’s ally, you can’t trust him because of his sheer incompetence. And also because he hasn’t heard any intelligence he doesn’t brag to Putin about knowing.

    When a foreign nation has more influence on the administration than the entirety of the American people…

    Well, at least the Trump administration might actually pretend to care now. When Americans are outraged, they don’t give a shit.

    They’re just upset they didn’t get invited. They would have mined the info and not told anyone about it.

    Frustration over the fallout rather than frustration over the leak. That about sums up this administration
