Just in few hours after somewhat vague headline about Israel spy- Harman wiretap leak news was put up this afternoon, it has been taken down along with a short lived headline about Senator Feinstein's alleged nepotism. Could pressure from aipac or neocons behind this sudden change? Usually headlines slide downwards when news ones are added. Little weird since drudge report is usually all about leaked news.

In the meantime, these highly important news stories are still there since yesterday.

He's been used by neocons before, occasionally shows libertarian streaks but most of the time DR does not seem to be part of the solution.
I recall reading while back about Drudge that he got his big break when he published on line "leaked" Monica Lewinsky scandal story that MSM at first didn't touch and tied up Clinton Presidency for over a year with impeachment hearings about the same time when Clinton had started to exert pressure on Israel on resolving the Palestinian land occupation issue. Use of Drudge Report by neocons to push Israel lobby agenda won't be a new thing.

If Drudge is Israel based, he should have reported on the news about the AIPAC spy case being dropped by Obama and his handlers. Big surprise that he missed this breaking news?
