United States Reportedly Spied on Israel’s Prime Minister
There’s a report that the U.S. spied on Israel’s Prime Minister amid the Iran nuclear debate…
Details from FOX’s Jon Decker at the White House:
When the President announced two years ago that he would curtail eavesdropping on friendly heads of state, the White House reportedly decided to keep Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu under close watch.
The Wall Street Journal reports that the NSA eavesdropped on communications between Netanyahu and his top aides. Private conversations with U.S. lawmakers and Israeli officials were also recorded.
A spokesman for the National Security Council refused to comment.
The Journal claims that most of these surveillance efforts occurred earlier this year as Netanyahu began to speak out against the Iran nuclear deal.
