Drum roll please,

via Israel:

"A senior Defense Department analyst has admitted that he shared secret military information with two pro-Israeli lobbyists and an Israeli official in an effort to create a back channel to the Bush administration on Middle East policy."

"Franklin said in court that he believed that the lobbyists had access and influence at the National Security Council, which coordinates policy issues for the president and was deeply involved in setting the administration's course on Iran. He said he hoped the lobbyists could help influence policy by passing on information that he knew was classified."
