BREAKING: Israel fed the CIA a fake Iranian assassination plot against Donald Trump to manipulate U.S. foreign policy and damage Trump's growing ties with Turkey, per WaPo. CIA had "low confidence" in the intelligence. U.S. officials believe Israel fabricated the threat to push Trump to restart the war on Iran. The alleged plot was relayed during Trump's July 8 visit to Turkey, prompting an elaborate Secret Service operation where Trump was secretly flown to Britain. Israel's warning was not about saving Trump's life. It was about shaping U.S. policy. A former official said it "fit a broader pattern" of Israeli intelligence designed to influence presidential decision-making. Turkish officials believe the report was fabricated to derail Trump's Iran negotiations and block Turkey's F-35 acquisition. The U.S. was played. Turkey was locked down. And Israel got what it wanted.
