re: #46 lawhawk

Some of Greenwald’s “exclusives” turned out to be things we already knew were going on - like SWIFT (for financial transactions) and that the feds were monitoring overseas communications.

Heck, the federal law and regulations organizing the NSA say that its mission is to gather intel by all means at its disposal. The NSA website:

That means spying.

And we’re hardly alone in that department.

As soon as we get binding guarantees from foreign nations that they will not spy on us (and the ability to independently monitor their intelligence-gathering activities) then we can stop spying on them.

And I want a PALE BLUE unicorn!!!
