Dog wags tail: Official

From the Australian.
A PENTAGON employee admitted in court here today that he had provided classified defence information to an Israeli diplomat and two employees of a pro-Israel lobby group.

Lawrence Franklin, 58, a specialist on Iran, Iraq and terrorism issues, worked at the time of the events for a top Pentagon official, Under Secretary of Defence for Policy Douglas Feith.
Goodness gracious, someone at the Pentagon working for Israel. Actually I'm only surprised about this case because I didn't know it was illegal for Pentagon staffers to work for Israel.

Two America Israel Public Affairs Committee officials have also been charged with "conspiracy to communicate national defence information to persons not entitled to receive it."
