Do friends spy on friends? Expect more of such news as the Franklin-AIPAC-Israel espionage case unfolds
The Media Line - News Detail: "4. THE SPY SUBMARINE WAS AMERICAN… Israel’s Channel Two television has revealed that the mystery submarine that penetrated Israeli waters last November and then disappeared after being spotted by Israel was American. According to the report, the sub was in Israeli waters to spy on its key ally in the region. The incident had caused some embarrassment to the Israeli navy which had been criticized for allowing an unknown vessel to enter its waters, but the charge was countered with praise for the navy’s vigilance in detecting the bogey before it could travel very far inside of Israeli territory."
