Despite not being in 5 eyes, Israel does get special treatment in the form of raw intelligence data from the US.

>The National Security Agency routinely shares raw intelligence data with Israel without first sifting it to remove information about US citizens, a top-secret document provided to the Guardian by whistleblower Edward Snowden reveals.

>According to the agreement, the intelligence being shared would not be filtered in advance by NSA analysts to remove US communications.

>While NSA documents tout the mutually beneficial relationship of Sigint sharing, another report, marked top secret and dated September 2007, states that the relationship, while central to US strategy, has become overwhelmingly one-sided in favor of Israel.
