New Snowden Document Implies NSA May Be Putting Israel’s Security Ahead of America’s

The following leaked slide from Edward Snowden was released today by Glenn Greenwald in his new book, No Place to Hide:

If you can’t read the slide, it says:

Balancing the SIGINT exchange equally between US and Israeli needs has been a constant challenge in the last decade, it arguably tilted heavily in favor of Israeli security concerns. 9/11 came, and went, with NSA’s only true Third Party CT relationship being driven almost totally by the needs of the partner.

That is a stunning statement. It implies that the signals intelligence exchange between the American and Israeli governments has been driven almost entirely by the NSA giving information to the Israelis, instead of Israel giving information to the U.S. … even though we were the ones attacked on 9/11.

Now that the dems are using the neocon's "old reliable" method of dodging the truth and demonizing the opposition I imagine it will be dubbed a "conspiracy theory" and it'll be forgotten by the next news cycle.
