what is not in dispute, and was my main point, is that classified stuff was leaked. .

I think it is inaccurate to say President Trump "leaked" any classified info to the Russians.

Too many independent corroborating sources and Trump's own behavior makes it undeniable at this point

The only info President Trump supposedly gave the Russians which some people claim was classified is that ISIS is trying to make laptop bombs.

As other people have already pointed out, that info was already public knowledge.

How damaging it is, what the root source(s) are(what countries originated the intel) is what is still in flux. Israel is the prime suspect but a Jordanian connection has some evidence from Al Jazeera and a couple Israeli papers. Most think Israel though.

What most people think is irrelevant.

What if President Trump, the Israeli IC and the Israeli leaders are not denying or admitting that the info came from Israel because that way the Russians will think it came from Israel instead of from the county it really came from?

After all, spreading disinformation in order to hide the truth is a classic IC tactic.

Whether it was from Israel or not isnt the root issue. It's the leaking of any top level classified intel to a country we we did not get permission from to leak to that country. Let alone one that has interests that work counter to our own and could result in compromising that secret intelligence network within ISIS.

I understand that is the talking point being used by the sore loser lefties and Trump haters right now but Russia is also fighting ISIS so it just doesn't make sense to me Russia would do anything that would compromise the secret intelligence network within ISIS.

Explain to me why you think they would.
