Real News @ http://RevolutionNews.US — While Obama publicly pressured Israel to make concessions to the Palestinians over settlements, he secretly sold Jerusalem deep-penetrating bombs it had long sought. Eli Lake previews an exclusive story appearing in Monday's Newsweek.

While publicly pressuring Israel to make deeper concessions to the Palestinians, President Obama has secretly authorized significant new aid to the Israeli military that includes the sale of 55 deep-penetrating bombs known as bunker busters, Newsweek has learned.

In an exclusive story to be published Monday on growing military cooperation between the two allies, U.S. and Israeli officials tell Newsweek that the GBU-28 Hard Target Penetrators—potentially useful in any future military strike against Iranian nuclear sites—were delivered to Israel in 2009, just several months after Obama took office.

The military sale was arranged behind the scenes as Obama's demands for Israel to stop building settlements in disputed territories were fraying political relations between the two countries in public.

The Israelis first requested the bunker busters in 2005, only to be rebuffed by the Bush administration. At the time, the Pentagon had frozen almost all U.S.-Israeli joint defense projects out of concern that Israel was transferring advanced military technology to China.

In 2007, Bush informed Ehud Olmert, then prime minister, that he would order the bunker busters for delivery in 2009 or 2010. The Israelis wanted them in 2007. Obama finally released the weapons in 2009, according to officials familiar with the still-secret decision.

James Cartwright, the Marine Corps general who served until August as the vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, told Newsweek the military chiefs had no objections to the sale. Rather, Cartwright said, there was a concern about "how the Iranians would perceive it," and "how the Israelis might perceive it." In other words, would the sale be seen as a green light for Israel to attack Iran's secret nuclear sites one day?

  • Obama bin laden

  • Barack O-Fuckin'-bama !!

  • No one has the right to take the CONSTITUTION on his hands. If he needs to be judged, he will be judged according to what civilian say.

  • Israel has the strength and determination to prevent Iran from nuclear weapons, if Iran would respond to Israeli attack by launching rockets into Israel ... Iran will be eradicated .. Israel is at the forefront of the war against Muslim fanaticism trying to impose their religion on the world!

  • FUCK YOU OBAMA FUCK ILUMINATI

  • Well, if Israel uses these Bunker Buster Bombs on Iran in a Pre Empt Attack then Iran has the GREEN LIGHT to NUKE ISRAEL into a giant shltball.

    Then Obama and BUSH can be World Tried for selling and giving Material Support to TERRORISTS.

    Then there is that Israeli STUXNET Virus that melted down Japans Nukes and sent radiation cloud to america. So THANKS ISRAEL! You are gonna deserve what you get!

  • Obama isn't a Black Man,

    He is just a JEW in CAMO!

    and a Puppet of BUSH and NWO!

  • Like Israel, I would not allow foreigners to come in and scrutinize everything I do either, because I believe as I am sure the Israelis do, we are only beholden to God alone, and not the UN by treaty, or any other men who can be corrupted by coveting riches, as we stand for truth and our US constitution and the fact that we police ourselves. Some Americans seem to have forgotten that, when they sought to remove God from their vocabulary. God, by whom we have those inalienable rights we cherish.

  • Please remember, President Ahmadinejad,

    There are two Americas. One is the vast majority of people. We're generally peaceful, gentle, and wish the best for our neighbors.

    Then there are those who are masquerading as Americans, but have no loyalty to nation, culture, or religion. They flock to power sources and behind the scenes, bleed America like vampires. If we locate them and release ourselves from their control, America can start being free again so it can be a better neighbor.
