This is called “perfidy” and is illegal in the US and internationally.
NonilexWhile the #Biden admin maintained a policy of continuous support of #Israel with both intelligence & weapons sharing, the decision inside the intelligence agencies to withhold information was limited & tactical, said 2 of the sources. The officials sought to ensure that Israel was using #US #intelligence in accordance with the #LawOfWar, said the sources.

Officials were concerned that #Israel had not provided sufficient assurances that it would abide by the #LawOfWar when using #US information, acc/to 3 of the sources. Under US #law, #intelligence agencies must receive such assurances before sharing information with a foreign country.

The #US also restricted how #Israel could use certain #intelligence in its pursuit of high-value military targets in #Gaza, said 2 sources.…
The decision came as worries intensified in the US intelligence community about the number of #civilians killed in Israel’s military ops in Gaza. Officials were also concerned that #ShinBet, Israel's domestic security agency, was mistreating #Palestinian #prisoners….

The #ArmedServices cmtes in both the #Senate & #House have opened fact-finding inquiries into a #US op Sept 2 that killed 11 alleged drug runners, including 2 men who survived the #military’s initial strike on their boat in waters off #Venezuela. Holsey’s interview was expected to cover a range of topics, including the controversial nature of his early retirement & scrutiny of the decision-making on Sept 2…. #LawOfWar experts have questioned if the killing of the 2 survivors was legal.
#Hegseth’s order, which has not been previously reported, adds another dimension to the campaign against suspected drug traffickers. Some current & former #US officials & #LawOfWar experts have said that the #Pentagon’s lethal campaign—which has killed more than 80 people to date—is #unlawful & may expose those most directly involved to future prosecution.
