Democrats Concerned Allies Stop Sharing Intel on Massacre After Massacres
According to the NYT, Democrats are worried about a dip in intel-sharing with Israel. One might wonder if this 'concern' extends to the documented use of U.S. weapons in suspected war crimes. This isn't the first time an ally has had qualms; remember when Germany briefly paused arms sales in 2023, only to resume them after a stern lecture from Washington? Or when the Netherlands paused F-35 parts,
only to be pressured back into compliance? Perhaps the 'concerns' aren't about losing intel, but about losing plausible deniability. The intelligence Israel shares often justifies actions that make allies look complicit. After all, it's harder to claim ignorance when you have the blueprints. This 'curb' isn't just about security; it's about reputation, and that's a commodity even the most hawkish
allies find increasingly difficult to launder.
