Their best friends!
Israeli officials often note in conversations with their American counterparts — correctly — that the U.S. regularly gathers intelligence on Israeli leaders.

Surely you have lost or forgotten a friend, of course if you are on Facebook friends really really do matter. But seriously nations are never friends they are something (?) but not good buddies.

Keep in mind that the original tale comes from Politico and that they cite anonymous sources.
Stingrays are a problem to be sure, and if Israel had any part in putting them up -- there should be repercussions. Israel has categorically denied doing so, however, and a more likely suspect might be liberal media outlets still trying for a "gotcha."
Only time will tell, but I predict this will fade away for lack of evidence.

Part of the spymaster Bush legacy is the view that all stink can be neutralized if we just bury our nose as far as we can up the other country's $#@!.

Nov 12, 2015 · The claims are particularly sensitive in Germany because the government reacted with anger two years ago to reports that the U.S. eavesdropped on German targets, including Chancellor Angela Merkel, who declared at the time that "spying among friends, that's just wrong."
Imagine that.....of course those unnamed officials forgot all about that on purpose. Forgot all about how the BO peep administration didn't rebuke Germany even after they knew for sure it was Germany. You know Rag the Dog.
Oh Uhoo…..Politico. What happened? How you looking now besides like the mopes you were created as. Hows that feel you leftist pukes.

At least Doc now understands that spying is ubiquitous. Better late than never.
