That would mean they should have put into place institutions protecting them from said spying. Which would be taking (defensive) military action because of the actions of an allied government. Now what kind of alliance is that?!
- sliverstorm 13y agoNo, if it's anything like the Cold War, everybody is spying on everybody else, and everybody knows they are being spied on. They just kick up a fuss in the news when they happen upon a piece of proof, to use in the PR battle.
- mowfask 13y agoLooks like I totally missed the parallel to the Cold War, could you elaborate?
- sliverstorm 13y agoI didn't say this is the Cold War. I said if it is anything like the Cold War.
