Supposedly the US and Israel wasn't the same type of BFF's back in 1967 that they are now. It was only after the Arab-Israeli war in 1967 that the Americans began trying to turn Israel into a millitary base. Prior to 1967, Israel was more of a european project than an American one, which I assume has to do with the fact that America got scared when Nasser took over the Suez-canal.

Maybe they were worried that some of the intel could be used against them or possible leaks, I mean is not like the US is a reliable ally.
