    Intelligence bodies do this. Take information from all available sources.

    “Bin Ladin Determined To Strike in US” came from multiple sources including some you may not like.

    Grow up.

      It doesn’t appear that you read the article as your comment seems pretty out there and completely unrelated to the topic.

      You’d expect them to double check it with multiple sources

      Correct. That’s good intelligence operations. But the whole point of the article is that that wasn’t happening:

      The Guardian’s analysis of documents from the BlueLeaks trove of internal law enforcement documents found no indication that this was balanced by information from other Middle Eastern sources or US Muslim community groups. Nor is there any indication that pro-Israel activists were subject to any specific scrutiny.

        Perhaps there are no other middle eastern intel sources on offer for them. Jordan probably only shares with the CIA for instance. It is only common sense that they would ignore a smaller intel group. Besides, what do you think is going to happen? You don’t base action on single sourced intel to begin with. Kids looking for boogie men under the bed.

        Or you could just accept it when you see an airplane fly into your office window. Your choice.

          Well that’s the issue with this sort of thing… Many US nationals currently are not choosing to believe the narrative coming from Israel and IDF. Hence we are being barraged with propaganda to fix the “wrong think”
