Manufactured outrage: US was told in advance about E-1 plan

In the case of the United States, at least, the outrage over Israel's decision to being planning for construction in Area E-1 is manufactured. Strategic Affairs Minister Moshe Boogie Yaalon told Army Radio on Monday morning that the White House was told in advance of Israel's plans.

Israel informed the US in advance of its new settlement plan "so they wouldn't learn of it in the media," @bogie_yaalon tells @galey_zahal.

@danwilliams @bogie_yaalon @galey_zahal that's strange, when our corr @dominicwaghorn put it to State Dept Friday they knew nothing about it

@raynerskynews @bogie_yaalon @galey_zahal @dominicwaghorn The interview suggested Israel communicated directly with the White House here.

So the US outrage over this is manufactured... They knew all along.... Hmmm.
