U.S. Allies Are Voicing Concerns That The U.S. Is No Longer Sharing Intelligence Details

Bill Gertz, Washington Free Beacon: U.S. Allies Left in the Dark

Ukraine, Syrian rebels, Israel complain about lack of U.S. intelligence sharing, aid

U.S. allies are raising concerns about what they say is unwillingness on the part of the Obama administration to share vital intelligence that could prove decisive in conflicts in Europe and the Middle East.

The Wall Street Journal reported on Friday that U.S. officials degrade satellite images of the positions of Russian-backed separatists before delivering them to Ukrainian forces, delaying their arrival and making them less effective for combating the rebels. The United States also provided the Ukrainian military with short-range counter-artillery radar systems but omitted crucial components that would have enabled the Ukrainians to immediately respond to separatist attacks.


WNU Editor: These are the countries and organizations that are voicing their concerns, it would not surprise me if there are others who are also impacted but are still keeping quiet.

Herr Obama is not incompetent.

He just wants something very different than most U.S. citizens.

He was a 2nd generation red diaper baby.
