Former Obama official: Israeli spy agency Black Cube targeted me

[Jpost] Aides to US President Donald Trump hired Black Cube to conduct an undercover campaign to smear Kahl and Obama's Deputy National Security Advisor Ben Rhodes, according to a report first published in the London Observer on Saturday.

During the summer of 2017, Black Cube agents using aliases and shell companies attempted to solicit information from Rhodes's and Kahl's wives, as well as from reporters and Iran experts who had been in contact with Obama-era officials, The New Yorker reported.

Trita Parsi, a well-known expert on Iranian politics and foreign policy, was contacted by a Black Cube agent who claimed to be a reporter. The agent pressed Parsi for information on whether Obama officials had personally benefited financially from the nuclear agreement. Black Cube secretly recorded the conversation, a transcript of which was obtained by The New Yorker.

In his Twitter posts, Kahl stated that at the same time as the alleged Black Cube operation, Trump administration officials became "obsessed" with him and Rhodes, and "pushed a narrative that Ben and I were solely responsible for turmoil across the Middle East."
Look at me, I exist!

#2 Not the fake Steele/Brit dossier, but real Mossad dossiers would indeed be entertaining.

#3 P2k,
(a) This is bullshit. An "Israeli spy company" wouldn't be interviewing targets - especially these particular targets, they would be analyzing their social media records.
(b) If Sessions wasn't a limp noodle, there's already enough evidence to lock all these people: from Obama down; for life.
(c) You don't want to know what Israeli Gov would do to a private company - let alone one that's not so private - for interfering in USA politics.

#4 Given the Obama interference into the Israeli election, I'd believe any collection of materials on American pols is purely for self defense purposes.

#5 Granted, but (c) still applies.

#6 I suspect if Black Cube had actually been involved, Benji would be toast

#7 If you want real dirt on Rhodes, go talk to his college buddies. I think he's such a douchebag that it's not necessary to do this sort of thing to discredit him, but I digress.

#8 Whatever they may or may not have found, that schmo Rhodes would be the absolute last man to be aware of it.

#9 What Cesare said. If it's true, and Rhodes knows about it, then he was tipped off.

#10 If it's true, and Rhodes knows about it, then he was tipped off.

Would you take 1/2 Iblis?

#11 Ïsraelis would want to know whats in it for the Obama regime for leaving the Iranians pallets of cash, not so much Trump. Blaming Donald for every thing is just standard procedure.

#12 Trump would be interested because it might give him what he needs to clean the Augean Stables we call Washington, DC.
