Israel's Iran Attack Plans Leaked from Biden-Harris Administration to Pro-Iran Entities, Prompting Security Fears

Oct 19, 2024, 09:05 PM

Israel's potential military plans against Iran have reportedly been leaked from the US to pro-Iranian entities, raising concerns over the security of shared intelligence. Allegations suggest that sensitive information provided by Israel was compromised, possibly through leaks within the Biden-Harris administration, which some critics claim is infiltrated by Iran sympathizers. This incident echoes a previous leak in 2012 under the Obama-Biden administration that prevented an Israeli attack on Iran's nuclear facilities. The latest breach has intensified distrust between Israel and the US, with Israeli officials reconsidering intelligence sharing, highlighted by Israel's decision not to inform the US about recent operations, such as the attempted decapitation strike on Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah. Calls have been made by officials, including Rep. Elise Stefanik, for an investigation into the leaks and scrutiny over the handling of classified information related to Israel's security plans.
