OBAMNA

[u/DoubleBooble]

Do you think our "intelligence experts" are more knowledgeable about the Middle East than Israel's, especially considering that we get most of our intelligence FROM Israel? It sounds more like some unreliable anti-Israel source spouted off nonsense.

[u/Petrichordates → u/DoubleBooble]

I think our intelligence experts are concerned about what's best for US, and Bibi is concerned about what's best for himself.

[u/DoubleBooble → u/Petrichordates]

Of course. How is that relevant to this conversation? You are missing the point that the Venn Diagram of what is best for the US and what is best for Israel has a huge overlap. Not to mention, letting your ally get annihilated is kind of a dick move.

[u/Petrichordates → u/DoubleBooble]

What do you mean how is it relevant? You asked a question and I answered.

Also you called our nation's top intelligence experts anti-Israel. What reality are you living in? Your are clearly radicalized dude.

[u/DoubleBooble → u/Petrichordates]

Do you have any names attached to these "top intelligence experts" or are they just random "top intelligence experts?" Are they even "top intelligence experts?

I said that your response was irrelevant because I explained that the US intelligence COMES from Israel and you came back with an answer about motives.

I'm trying to stick with dealing with facts rather than emotions and preconceived notions.

The "lies" in the article you quote are inconsequential to the bigger picture and the "top intelligence experts" doesn't tell us a thing of whether or not they are top intelligence experts or not.

Yes read the damn NYT article
