The Spy Cables leak uncovers Israel's aggressive push into the politics of South Africa.
South Africa has to cooperate with the Israelis, because they need all that good information from one of the best, most efficient intelligence agencies in the world – also the most ruthless. But on the other hand, they also can’t trust them – because they’re going to start spying in South Africa on the South Africans.
Journalist Will Jordan reports on what the world has learned about Israel’s internal, and international, intelligence operations – from a split on Iran’s nuclear programs, to blackmail and cyber-attacks in South Africa.
Will is one of the journalists publishing the Spy Cables series of reports at Al Jazeera.
