🚨🇮🇱🇺🇸 BOMBSHELL: The Pentagon raised Israel's counterintelligence threat level to "critical," the highest possible designation, over concerns Israel is aggressively spying on top U.S. officials.

According to U.S. officials, the Defense Intelligence Agency issued the assessment in recent weeks because Israel is making "a particular effort to surveil top U.S. officials to get information on the Trump administration's internal deliberations and decision-making" on Iran and Lebanon.

Yep, read that again.

America's "closest ally" is now rated a critical counterintelligence threat, the same tier as hostile foreign powers, because it's spying on the President's inner circle to find out whether he'll resume bombing Iran or sign the deal.

The details are stunning.

U.S. officials already use burner phones and avoid speaking in hotel rooms when visiting Israel.

A CSIS expert calls Israeli intelligence "hyper-aggressive" and "exceedingly interested in what we are up to."

Now stack the timeline.

Trump screams at Netanyahu, "you're f***ing crazy."

The Axios leak that enraged Levin.

Netanyahu's letter designing permanent military integration.

Section 224 linking the two countries' military systems and data.

And now the Pentagon formally designating Israel a critical espionage threat, in the same weeks Congress moves to wire Israel directly into America's defense industrial base.

The two stories are happening simultaneously and almost nobody has connected them.

The Pentagon says Israel is spying on America at a critical level.

Congress is responding by giving Israel deeper access to American military systems than ever before.

At what point does Washington admit this relationship is not what Americans were told it is?

Israel executed baby Sam today with a bullet to the face in the occupied West Bank.

They killed his mother too.

Sam was only 7 months old.

They murdered a mother. And her infant.

Slovenia’s President Musar has hit back after PM Jansa removed the Palestinian flag from a government building in Ljubljana, saying she will raise it at the Presidential palace for a week “as a reminder to all who visit my office”.

Israeli Forces Open Fire on Stopped Car, Killing 7-Month-Old BABY

The family was driving from Bethlehem to visit relatives when soldiers fired on their vehicle in Tel Rumeida. A bullet struck infant Sam Fahd Abu Haikal in the jaw, exited the other side of his body, and went on to wound his mother. His father was hit too.

The grandmother says the car was at a COMPLETE STOP, roughly ten meters from the soldier, when the shooting started. She insists the family did nothing, and cannot say why fire was opened on them.

The Palestinian health ministry confirmed the baby died. There is NO JUSTIFICATION for this

[Assal Rad @AssalRad]

It’s been many hours since Israeli forces shot and killed a 7-month-old Palestinian infant in the occupied West Bank, and I still don’t see any headlines from NYT, AP, CNN, Washington Post, Sky News…

Israel murdering babies is so normalized that it barely registers as news.

[Chris Doyle @Doylech]

7 UN peacekeepers killed. You say one by Hizbollah, of course which has to be condemned. Who killed the other six? Godzilla? Elvis? Socrates?

ISRAELI FORCES SHOT AND KILLED A BABY IN THE OCCUPIED WEST BANK.

A baby.

Is there going to be wall-to-wall coverage and condemnations or will it be largely overlooked because the baby is Palestinian?

[Neena Jha @DrNeenaJha]

WELL DONE @superdrug 👏👏👏

Superdrug have removed ALL Ahava products due to their link with illegal Israeli settlements in the West Bank.

Thank you for having a moral compass!

Let’s hope more companies follow suit….

A professor in the U.S. was suspended for mentioning Palestinians, just days after Hasan Piker was barred from the UK for condemning a genocide.

Your rights are being stripped away in service of Israel’s impunity.

💢 Seven-Month-Old Infant Killed After Israeli Forces Open Fire on Family Car in Hebron

Israeli occupation forces shot and killed seven-month-old Sam Fahd Abu Haikal on Friday after opening live fire on his family’s vehicle in the Tel Rumeida area of Hebron in the occupied West Bank, according to WAFA.

The infant was struck in the jaw by the same bullet that wounded his mother. His father, Bethlehem University lecturer Fahd Abdul Aziz Abu Haikal, was shot in the hand. The family was traveling from Bethlehem to visit the mother’s family in Hebron when soldiers opened fire on their car in the Wadi al-Hariya neighborhood.

Sam died of his wounds Friday evening. His parents sustained moderate injuries.

@CEPschindler It's a lie. This is a list of people who served in the IDF & come back to live in UK. It is not a "list of Jews," and it's deeply antisemitic for you to think so. You're wrongly equating all Jews with people who served in the IDF. Many Jews here do not support Israel's actions.

[Chris Doyle @Doylech]

I was happy to sign this letter. Those who serve in the Israeli armed forces have to realise that they may be investigated and held to account. Given the regular widespread war crimes Israel has committed, it is the only right, ethical and legal position.

[S Smith @sasmith66]

@stephenpollard @Telegraph How truly despicable of you to publish such a blatant lie to fuel antisemitism. You've no qualms about wrongly conflating criticism of the country of Israel with British Jews. Israel does not represent British Jews & many do not support Israel's actions. Stop your hateful lies.

[Chris Doyle @Doylech]

Of course not even close to the truth from Pollard. This dangerous extremist is spreading a vicious lie. His sinister weaponisation of antisemitism is a disgrace.

[Sangita Myska @SangitaMyska]

No, Camilla. @ZackPolanski & over 60 politicians, human rights lawyers + others are not calling for a “list of Jews”. They are supporting a letter asking the UK Govt to secondary screen returning dual nationals & Britons who have served with the IDF since Oct’23. The aim is to find out whether they have fought in Gaza. This is bec Israel is accused of Genocide at the ICJ. It would fulfill the UK’s commitment to the Genocide Conventions. You appear to be defending Polanski being called “human trash” by Goldsmith. Is that the case?

[S Smith @sasmith66]

@LeftieStats @guardian So Andy Burnham knows more about genocide than most experts in the field of genocide study, including Lemkin Institute, & the ICJ which says plausible genocide & is investigating. And he ignores the statements made by Israeli officials clearly stating their genocide intentions.
