WikiLeaks: NSA Eavesdropped On the Last Three French Presidents

Posted by Soulskill on from the enjoy-this-can-of-worms dept.

Earthquake Retrofit writes: The NY Times is reporting that WikiLeaks has released "material which appeared to capture officials in Paris talking candidly about Greece's economy, relations with Germany — and, ironically, American espionage." The information was leaked "a day before the French Parliament is expected to definitively pass a controversial security bill legalizing broad surveillance, particularly of terrorism suspects."

    All France has to do to stop US spying is to agree to follow US law. Easy breezy.

    terror bombing and the mass muder in Hiroshima and Nagasaki 45

    My father was scheduled to be landing on the beaches of Japan to force their surrender in WW2. If not for the atomic bombs that lead to Japan's capitulation he, my siblings, my children, and my grandchildren may very well not be here today. There is no way you can make me feel sorry for the killing of thousands that saved the lives of millions.
