U.S. offers to share Syria intelligence on terrorists with Russia
The Obama administration has offered to help Russia improve its targeting of terrorist groups in Syria if Moscow will stop bombing civilians and opposition fighters who have signed on to a cease-fire and use its influence to force Syrian President Bashar al-Assad to do the same.
The offer early this week of what one administration official called “enhanced information sharing” does not include joint military planning, targeting or coordination with U.S. airstrikes or other operations in Syria
Incidentally, notice that the 2014 story was from the same Post reporter, Greg Miller, who wrote Monday's article.

Obama offered and the intel he was offering was most likely cleared by his advisors. Trump on the other hand, freely gave intel on a whim to impress the Russians without anyone's knowledge or advice. On top of that, the intel was very sensitive provided by Israel who may no longer be so forthcoming with future reports. Obama never put himself in such a stupid position. You can't compare the two because it's literally apples and oranges..
Orange, ha!
We learned that the Russians used this intelligence
Against us as they bombed some of our installations
In Syria knowing full well what they were doing.

So when Obama does it they call it " enhanced information sharing" but unconfirmed reports of Trump doing it means impeachment?
