    Are we supposed to believe the US hasn’t already been sharing intel with Israel, like, since 1948?

      Ehhh, definitely not since the beginning in 48. Back then, they had to smuggle/steal all their armament, and the US tried to play neutral, hence forcing the British/French and Israelis to give the canal back to Nasser.

      It’s also likely that we’ve only been sharing what we think they actually need, the US isn’t the puppet of Israel nor vice versa, their relationship is very, very much transactional.
