1. no surprise: US, UK, are not allies of Israel
C   (01.31.16)
first, israel needs to upgrade all of its encryption program; second, israel should stop intelligence cooperation with the us and the uk; third, israel needs to put out as much disinformation as possible; fourth, israel should jam the cyprus spying installation if and when necessary.
2. Let us not forget the origine of these leaks
C   (01.31.16)
these leaks come from edward snowden. therefore, whatever he had in possession, has fallen into the possession of the russians and perhaps others. the fact that the obama regime cannot keep secrets nor can it properly vet those who are entrusted with secrets is rarher terrible and worthy of a high level investigation. of course, this government will never investigate itself, nor will it ever let an independent investigator to be appointed. so matters must wait till the next president.
3. something very fishy is going on
C   (01.31.16)
as soon as obama became president, alleged israeli spies were rounded up in lebanon. too many spies were rounded up. of course, the obama people leaked non-stop israel's most guarded secrets to various newspapers. at the same time, obama accused israel of spying continually on the us. yet, who spied on ehud barak and bibi netanyahu? who rented an appartment right accross the street from barak's apartment and filled it with advanced listening devices? why does the us embassy in tel aviv have eight hundred people working there? you guessed it. it all has to do with us spying on the tiny jewish state. however, as much as the obamas spy, they are being spied on as a result of their amazing incompetence. was snowden a result of abysmal incompetence, or was he allowed to do his job.
4. Another myth exposed ,...

Ay-yay-yay, and allegedly the best and the brightest among counterintelligence organisations didn't catch it? ,...
5. No surprise.
Brad ,   USA   (01.31.16)
Israel's intelligence knew about it before it even happened. All they have to do is remember how the Obama admin. has treated Israel shamefully, while kissing up to Muslim countries and terror groups (oh yeah, same thing). Too bad all of this spying isn't turned on the Muslim terror camps spread across the U.S., but that's what we'd expect given the Obama admin. love affair with Islam. The Biblical God told Abraham that He'd bless those who bless Abraham's seed (through Isaac and Jacob), and curse those who curse Abrahams seed. The U.S. and UK are asking for that curse in spades. The Muslims have that curse already. israel will always endure, but her enemies will disappear.
6. Stupid Americans and Brits.....
David ,   Hartford USA   (01.31.16)
maybe if they invested their time and energy into monitoring the true Muslim threat, 52 dead and 700 wounded Englishmen wouldn't have happened on 7/7. Maybe 3,300 dead Americans wouldn't be, if the NSA had been monitoring Muslims on 9/11 instead of Israel. So Obama's goons are spying on a friendly country. Just shows you what a traitor Obama really is. Maybe if the NSA and FBI were concentrating on monitoring the true Muslim threat, they would have prevented the San Bernardino jihadist murders. Israel will revamp their security protocols and move on. But the USA and Britain have shown the world the true colors of their leadership: untrustworthy and undisciplined.
7. USA has the right, they paid for the stuff.

8. Britain should thank its lucky stars...
JVC ,   LA, USA   (01.31.16)
The miserable little island nation that manufactures nothing, has little-to-no natural resources, the worst weather in the world, has disarmed its citizens and created an Orwellian state... then has the audacity to act like a world power. Too bad. It's not 1848. Kick that thing to the curb. England you are worthless. Your "intelligence" is nothing but an American fait accompli. Israel has done more to bolster American security in the last 50 years than England has done in the last 100. Americans have died defending the British Isles from being over run by their neighbors and the Brits give us marmite and the Sex Pistols in return. America, wake up. Will look forward to President Trump putting this floating refuse pile in its place.
9. US + BRITISH SPY ON ISRAEL
Abraham ben Jacob ,   Canada   (01.31.16)
OBAMA EXPOSED ISRAELI SECRETS TO HIZBOLLA TERRORISTS, AT SAME TIME THAT US + BRITS SPY ON ISRAEL, SNOWDON GIVES UP MUCH MORE SECRETS TO THE RUSSIANS ON US SECRETS OBAMA IS AN ISREL HATING AMATEUR, HE IS SO TRANSPARANT ISRAEL SHOULD ACT ACCORDINGLY,
10. Just standard business, kids
Cameron ,   USA   (01.31.16)
The Eye is upon all.
11. #8 Is this the same UK
Sarah B ,   Tel Aviv/London   (02.01.16)
where Donald Trump has £220 million worth of investments?
12. bombing
john ,   toronto   (01.31.16)
Bombing of civilian areas will not work. Troops will have to be send in after communication towers are shut . So that civilians are free
13. So what happened to that
Carol ,   NYC   (02.01.16)
"The world would be in stone ages without Israeli technology" gang? In hiding?
14. Beyond bad.

15. Iran already spoofs GPS, US UK
Avi L.   (02.01.16)
Iran already spoofs GPS, US UK can read data, can they also take control of the machine? Just hope they can do the same to the russia and iranian and chinese. So back to the club and slinger?
16. #13 carol
solomon ,   bklyn   (02.02.16)
No, we're still here. That's why the US has to spy on Israel instead of getting its own intelligence.
17. # 4 they caught it.
