> The federal conflict of interest commissioner has declined to

> related to the handling of suspected Taliban prisoners during the
> Afghan war.
>
> The complaint was filed by former New Democrat MP Craig Scott, who has

> Last spring, Scott spearheaded a federal e-petition calling on the
> Liberal government to fulfil a commitment — made while in opposition —
> to hold an inquiry into the handling of allegations around the

>
> It was Sajjan who turned down the call.
>
> Scott, however, argued the defence minister should never have made the

> "It appears that Mr. Sajjan was simply conveying a government

> "Furthermore, I have no information to suggest that Mr. Sajjan
> actually had any knowledge related to Afghan detainees, nor any
> involvement in the matter."
>
> The question of what the former Conservative government knew of the
> alleged torture carried out by local Afghan authorities was at the
> centre of a number of political crises between 2007 and 2010.
>
> Aside from being an important point of international law, the minority

> A pair of human rights groups also fought protracted legal battles to

> McCain plans Russia cyber hearing for Thursday
>
> By Jeremy Herb and Connor O’Brien 12/30/16 10:23 AM EST
>
> Senate Armed Services Chairman John McCain has scheduled a hearing on
> cyber threats for Thursday, where the issue of Russia's election-year
> hacking will take center stage, a source familiar with the committee's
> planning told POLITICO.
>
> Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, National Security
> Agency and Cyber Command Chief Adm. Mike Rogers and Undersecretary of
> Defense for Intelligence Marcel Lettre are scheduled to testify,
> according to the source.
>
> The timing of the hearing — three days into the new Congress — is in
> the same week that President-elect Donald Trump says he plans to be
> briefed by the intelligence community on the Russian hacking.
>
> The Obama administration issued new sanctions against Russia on
> Thursday in response to the hacking, kicking 35 Russian diplomats and
> intelligence operatives out of the U.S. and targeting Moscow's primary
> security service, the FSB, and its main intelligence directorate, the
> GRU.
>
> Trump has been dismissive of the administration's charges that Russia
> tampered with the presidential campaign. In response to the sanctions,
> Trump said in a statement Thursday, "It's time for our country to move
> on to bigger and better things," but also said that he would meet next
> week with intelligence leaders — potentially some of the same
> officials to testify before McCain's committee.
>
> The Arizona Republican has called for creating a Select Committee in
> Congress to investigate the Russian hacking allegations. And on
> Thursday, he and Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) said they would push for
> "stronger sanctions on Russia" in the new Congress.

>> Little David Amos’ “True History Of War” Canadian Airstrikes And
>> Stupid Justin Trudeau
>>
>> Canada’s and Canadians free ride is over. Canada can no longer hide
>> behind Amerka’s and NATO’s skirts.
>>
>> When I was still in Canadian Forces then Prime Minister Jean Chretien
>> actually committed the Canadian Army to deploy in the second campaign
>> in Iraq, the Coalition of the Willing. This was against or contrary to
>> the wisdom or advice of those of us Canadian officers that were
>> involved in the initial planning phases of that operation. There were
>> significant concern in our planning cell, and NDHQ about of the dearth
>> of concern for operational guidance, direction, and forces for
>> operations after the initial occupation of Iraq. At the “last minute”
>> Prime Minister Chretien and the Liberal government changed its mind.
>> The Canadian government told our amerkan cousins that we would not
>> deploy combat troops for the Iraq campaign, but would deploy a
>> Canadian Battle Group to Afghanistan, enabling our amerkan cousins to
>> redeploy troops from there to Iraq. The PMO’s thinking that it was
>> less costly to deploy Canadian Forces to Afghanistan than Iraq. But
>> alas no one seems to remind the Liberals of Prime Minister Chretien’s
>> then grossly incorrect assumption. Notwithstanding Jean Chretien’s
>> incompetence and stupidity, the Canadian Army was heroic,
>> professional, punched well above it’s weight, and the PPCLI Battle
>> Group, is credited with “saving Afghanistan” during the Panjway
>> campaign of 2006.
>>
>> What Justin Trudeau and the Liberals don’t tell you now, is that then
>> Liberal Prime Minister Jean Chretien committed, and deployed the
>> Canadian army to Canada’s longest “war” without the advice, consent,
>> support, or vote of the Canadian Parliament.
>>
>> What David Amos and the rest of the ignorant, uneducated, and babbling
>> chattering classes are too addled to understand is the deployment of
>> less than 75 special operations troops, and what is known by planners
>> as a “six pac cell” of fighter aircraft is NOT the same as a
>> deployment of a Battle Group, nor a “war” make.
>>
>> The Canadian Government or The Crown unlike our amerkan cousins have
>> the “constitutional authority” to commit the Canadian nation to war.
>> That has been recently clearly articulated to the Canadian public by
>> constitutional scholar Phillippe Legasse. What Parliament can do is
>> remove “confidence” in The Crown’s Government in a “vote of
>> non-confidence.” That could not happen to the Chretien Government
>> regarding deployment to Afghanistan, and it won’t happen in this
>> instance with the conservative majority in The Commons regarding a
>> limited Canadian deployment to the Middle East.
>>
>> President George Bush was quite correct after 911 and the terror
>> attacks in New York; that the Taliban “occupied” and “failed state”
>> Afghanistan was the source of logistical support, command and control,
>> and training for the Al Quaeda war of terror against the world. The
>> initial defeat, and removal from control of Afghanistan was vital and
>> essential for the security and tranquility of the developed world. An
>> ISIS “caliphate,” in the Middle East, no matter how small, is a clear
>> and present danger to the entire world. This “occupied state,”
>> or“failed state” will prosecute an unending Islamic inspired war of
>> terror against not only the “western world,” but Arab states
>> “moderate” or not, as well. The security, safety, and tranquility of
>> Canada and Canadians are just at risk now with the emergence of an
>> ISIS“caliphate” no matter how large or small, as it was with the
>> Taliban and Al Quaeda “marriage” in Afghanistan.
>>
>> One of the everlasting “legacies” of the “Trudeau the Elder’s dynasty
>> was Canada and successive Liberal governments cowering behind the
>> amerkan’s nuclear and conventional military shield, at the same time
>> denigrating, insulting them, opposing them, and at the same time
>> self-aggrandizing ourselves as “peace keepers,” and progenitors of
>> “world peace.” Canada failed. The United States of Amerka, NATO, the
>> G7 and or G20 will no longer permit that sort of sanctimonious
>> behavior from Canada or its government any longer. And Prime Minister
>> Stephen Harper, Foreign Minister John Baird , and Cabinet are fully
>> cognizant of that reality. Even if some editorial boards, and pundits
>> are not.
>>
>> Justin, Trudeau “the younger” is reprising the time “honoured” liberal
>> mantra, and tradition of expecting the amerkans or the rest of the
>> world to do “the heavy lifting.” Justin Trudeau and his “butt buddy”
>> David Amos are telling Canadians that we can guarantee our security
>> and safety by expecting other nations to fight for us. That Canada can
>> and should attempt to guarantee Canadians safety by providing
>> “humanitarian aid” somewhere, and call a sitting US president a “war
>> criminal.” This morning Australia announced they too, were sending
>> tactical aircraft to eliminate the menace of an ISIS “caliphate.”
>>
>> In one sense Prime Minister Harper is every bit the scoundrel Trudeau
>> “the elder” and Jean ‘the crook” Chretien was. Just As Trudeau, and
>> successive Liberal governments delighted in diminishing,
>> marginalizing, under funding Canadian Forces, and sending Canadian
>> military men and women to die with inadequate kit and modern
>> equipment; so too is Prime Minister Stephen Harper. Canada’s F-18s are
>> antiquated, poorly equipped, and ought to have been replaced five
>> years ago. But alas, there won’t be single RCAF fighter jock that
>> won’t go, or won’t want to go, to make Canada safe or safer.
>>
>> My Grandfather served this country. My father served this country. My
>> Uncle served this country. And I have served this country. Justin
>> Trudeau has not served Canada in any way. Thomas Mulcair has not
>> served this country in any way. Liberals and so called social
>> democrats haven’t served this country in any way. David Amos, and
>> other drooling fools have not served this great nation in any way. Yet
>> these fools are more than prepared to ensure their, our safety to
>> other nations, and then criticize them for doing so.
>>
>> Canada must again, now, “do our bit” to guarantee our own security,
>> and tranquility, but also that of the world. Canada has never before
>> shirked its responsibility to its citizens and that of the world.
>>
>> Prime Minister Harper will not permit this country to do so now

>> WikiLeaks' Julian Assange to leave embassy 'soon'
>>
>> Kim Hjelmgaard, USA TODAY 11:08 a.m. EDT August 18, 2014
>>
>> LONDON — WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange announced Monday that after
>> spending two years in the Embassy of Ecuador in London he will "soon"
>> leave the diplomatic safe harbor.
>>
>> He made the comments during a joint press conference with Ecuador's
>> Foreign Minister Ricardo Patino. Assange did not elaborate on the
>> timing or address whether an impasse over his potential extradition
>> had been resolved.
>>
>> It was suggested in the British press over the weekend that Assange
>> may need hospital treatment for a heart defect and lung condition and
>> that any move could be to remedy those suspected health problems.
>>
>> However, Assange refused to be drawn on those specific points Monday,
>> saying only that when he does leave it will "probably not" be for the
>> reasons reported on.
>>
>> WikiLeaks spokesman Kristinn Hrafnsson later clarified Assange's
>> claim. Hrafnsson said the issue of Assange's extradition must first be
>> resolved before he can leave.
>>
>> "The plan is to leave as soon as the U.K. government decides to honor
>> its obligations," Hrafnsson said, referring to guarantees he is
>> seeking over the right to travel to Ecuador.
>>
>> Still, Assange said that his health has suffered as a result of his
>> confinement.
>>
>> "It's (the embassy) an environment in which any healthy person would
>> find themselves soon enough with certain difficulties they would have
>> to manage," Assange said. He said the embassy "has no outside areas,
>> no sunlight."
>>
>> Assange, 43, fled to the embassy in 2012 fearing extradition to the
>> U.S. via Sweden, where authorities want to question him over
>> allegations related to a sexual assault.
>>
>> Ecuador has granted him refugee status and says it remains committed
>> to his protection, but British police have so far refused to let
>> Assange leave the embassy and it is thought that he would be arrested
>> if he tried to do so.
>>
>> In 2010, WikiLeaks published a tranche of leaked military and
>> diplomatic cables and Assange has been the subject of an investigation
>> by U.S. authorities.

>>
>> http://www.checktheevidence.com/pdf/UN%20DUDES-txt.pdf
>>
>> In order to briefy explain to you the documents I forwarded to you
>> yesterday I will say that at the very least I proved to CNOOC that I
>> am a whisleblower against the very corrupt Justice Systems and the
>> Financial Industy operating within at least 10 purportedly profound
>> democracies. The documents do prove that I sued 3 US Treasury Agents
>> and many others at least once back in 2002 and that many government
>> offials and many others are well aware of that fact. In 2004
>> I remained true to my words to politicians such as Harper, MacKay,
>> Layton, the PM Martin, Anne McLellan (a former director of Nexen's)
>> and their many parliamentry cohorts and ran for a seat in Canada's
>> 38th Parliament
>>
>> Later in 2004 I was falsely imprisoned after I returned to the USA in
>> order to continue to argue in court about my family's rights and
>> interests. My false arrest was done in open court before the Speech
>> from the Throne on Oct 1st 2004. The arrest was recorded on the public
>> record without a warrant or even a reason statedand I was held in
>> solitary confinement under the charges of "Other" with no bail terms
>> offered. After a few days DEFAIT was compelled to send one of its
>> consulate officers and some secretive member of the Canadian
>> Department of Public Safety to visit me in the Yankee jail. All those
>> mindless bureaucrats did was laugh at my plight and told me that they
>> could do nothing to help me be released from my false imprisonment. I
>> got of jail on my own with a lot of help from members of my Clan.Thus
>> in my humble opinion the Yankees and my fellow Canadians have no right
>> whatsoever to chastise the Chinese to doing similiar things to other
>> people. Imagine if such things were done to Stephen Harper in 2004?
>> Ten years later Harper is still playing dumb even though I debated one
>> of his lawyers in front of hundreds of people and his personal
>> computer answered my concerns weeks BEFORE I was falsely imprisoned.
>> Go Figure why I ran against the Bloc, the Green meanies, the NDO, the
>> Libranos and Harper and the Boyz in Blue again the following year.

>> >> First of all – we handle complaints only about financial businesses

>> >>
>> >> So if your enquiry is about anything else, please look at the end of
>> >> this email for details of other organisations that may be able to help
>> >> you.
>> >>
>> >> But if you:
>> >>
>> >> are thinking of complaining about a financial business or

>> >>
>> >> … here is some general information that may help with your enquiry. If

>> >> 234 567 (8am – 6pm, Monday to Friday)
>> >>
>> >> -----------------------------------------------------
>> >>
>> >> complaining about a financial business – STEP 1
>> >>
>> >> There is more information about how to complain on our website at:
>> >>
>> >> http://www.financial-ombudsman.org.uk/consumer/complaints.htm
>> >>
>> >> We can't step in to investigate a complaint until the financial
>> >> business you're unhappy with has had the opportunity to look at it
>> >> first. So you need to complain to the financial business, if you
>> >> haven't done so already. There are two ways to do this:
>> >>
>> >> 1) You can contact the business yourself, asking them to deal with
>> >> your complaint under their official "complaints procedure".
>> >>
>> >> 2) You can phone us directly on 0800 0 234 567 (8am-6pm, Monday to
>> >> Friday) to discuss your complaint with us – and we can send details to
>> >> the business for you.
>> >>
>> >> Businesses normally have to complete their investigation within eight
>> >> weeks. If you are unhappy with the outcome of their investigation (or
>> >> more than eight weeks have passed) you can ask us to look into the
>> >> complaint.
>> >>
>> >> -----------------------------------------------------
>> >>
>> >> complaining about a financial business – STEP 2
>> >>
>> >> If you want us to look into a complaint, you will need to:
>> >>
>> >> complete and sign our complaint form
>> >> post it to us with copies of any paperwork you have received from the
>> >> business following their investigation.
>> >>
>> >> There are two ways to do this:
>> >>
>> >> 1) You can download our complaint form off our website at
>> >> www.financial-ombudsman.org.uk/consumer/complaints.htm#3 – then fill
>> >> it in, sign it, and post it to us.
>> >>
>> >> 2) You can phone us directly on 0800 0 234 567 (8am-6pm, Monday to
>> >> Friday) and we will take some details – and send you a complaint form
>> >> for you to sign and return to us.
>> >>
>> >> Please note – once the business has completed their investigation, you
>> >> have 6 months to refer your complaint to us.

> GCHQ Spies on WikiLeaks Visitors
> The system used by GCHQ to monitor the WikiLeaks website – codenamed
> ANTICRISIS GIRL – is described in a classified PowerPoint presentation
> prepared by the British agency and distributed at the 2012 “SIGDEV
> Conference.” At the annual gathering, each member of the “Five Eyes”
> alliance – the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and
> New Zealand – describes the prior year’s surveillance successes and
> challenges.
> In a top-secret presentation at the conference, two GCHQ spies
> outlined how ANTICRISIS GIRL was used to enable “targeted website
> monitoring” of WikiLeaks (See slides 33 and 34). The agency logged
> data showing hundreds of users from around the world, including the
> United States, as they were visiting a WikiLeaks site –contradicting
> claims by American officials that a deal between the U.K. and the U.S.
> prevents each country from spying on the other’s citizens.
> The IP addresses collected by GCHQ are used to identify individual
> computers that connect to the Internet, and can be traced back to
> specific people if the IP address has not been masked using an
> anonymity service. If WikiLeaks or other news organizations were
> receiving submissions from sources through a public dropbox on their
> website, a system like ANTICRISIS GIRL could potentially be used to
> help track them down. (WikiLeaks has not operated a public dropbox
> since 2010, when it shut down its system in part due to security
> concerns over surveillance.)
> In its PowerPoint presentation, GCHQ identifies its target only as
> “wikileaks.” One slide, displaying analytics derived from the
> surveillance, suggests that the site monitored was the official
> wikileaks.org domain. It shows that users reached the targeted site by
> searching for “wikileaks.org” and for “maysan uxo,” a term associated
> with a series of leaked Iraq war logs that are hosted on
> wikileaks.org.
> The ANTICRISIS GIRL initiative was operated by a GCHQ unit called
> Global Telecoms Exploitation (GTE), which was previously reported by
> The Guardian to be linked to the large-scale, clandestine Internet
> surveillance operation run by GCHQ, codenamed TEMPORA.
> Operating in the United Kingdom and from secret British eavesdropping
> bases in Cyprus and other countries, GCHQ conducts what it refers to
> as “passive” surveillance – indiscriminately intercepting massive
> amounts of data from Internet cables, phone networks and satellites.
> The GTE unit focuses on developing “pioneering collection
> capabilities” to exploit the stream of data gathered from the
> Internet.
> As part of the ANTICRISIS GIRL system, the documents show, GCHQ used
> publicly available analytics software called Piwik to extract
> information from its surveillance stream, not only monitoring visits
> to targeted websites like WikiLeaks, but tracking the country of
> origin of each visitor.
> It is unclear from the PowerPoint presentation whether GCHQ monitored
> the WikiLeaks site as part of a pilot program designed to demonstrate
> its capability, using only a small set of covertly collected data, or
> whether the agency continues to actively deploy its surveillance
> system to monitor visitors to WikiLeaks. It was previously reported in
> The Guardian that X-KEYSCORE, a comprehensive surveillance weapon used
> by both NSA and GCHQ, allows “an analyst to learn the IP addresses of
> every person who visits any website the analyst specifies.”
> GCHQ refused to comment on whether ANTICRISIS GIRL is still
> operational. In an email citing the agency’s boilerplate response to
> inquiries, a spokeswoman insisted that “all of GCHQ’s work is carried
> out in accordance with a strict legal and policy framework which
> ensures that our activities are authorized, necessary and
> proportionate, and that there is rigorous oversight.”
> But privacy advocates question such assurances. “How could targeting
> an entire website’s user base be necessary or proportionate?” says Gus
> Hosein, executive director of the London-based human rights group
> Privacy International. “These are innocent people who are turned into
> suspects based on their reading habits. Surely becoming a target of a
> state’s intelligence and security apparatus should require more than a
> mere click on a link.”
> The agency’s covert targeting of WikiLeaks, Hosein adds, call into
> question the entire legal rationale underpinning the state’s system of
> surveillance. “We may be tempted to see GCHQ as a rogue agency,
> ungoverned in its use of unprecedented powers generated by new
> technologies,” he says. “But GCHQ’s actions are authorized by
> [government] ministers. The fact that ministers are ordering the
> monitoring of political interests of Internet users shows a systemic
> failure in the rule of law.”

> Going After Assange and His Supporters
> The U.S. attempt to pressure other nations to prosecute Assange is
> recounted in a file that the intelligence community calls its
> “Manhunting Timeline.” The document details, on a country-by-country
> basis, efforts by the U.S. government and its allies to locate,
> prosecute, capture or kill alleged terrorists, drug traffickers,
> Palestinian leaders and others. There is a timeline for each year from
> 2008 to 2012.
> An entry from August 2010 – headlined “United States, Australia, Great
> Britain, Germany, Iceland” – states: “The United States on August 10
> urged other nations with forces in Afghanistan, including Australia,
> United Kingdom, and Germany, to consider filing criminal charges
> against Julian Assange.” It describes Assange as the “founder of the
> rogue Wikileaks Internet website and responsible for the unauthorized
> publication of over 70,000 classified documents covering the war in
> Afghanistan.”
> In response to questions from The Intercept, the NSA suggested that
> the entry is “a summary derived from a 2010 article” in the Daily
> Beast.That article, which cited an anonymous U.S. official, reported
> that “the Obama administration is pressing Britain, Germany,
> Australia, and other allied Western governments to consider opening
> criminal investigations of WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange and to
> severely limit his nomadic travels across international borders.”
> The government entry in the “Manhunting Timeline” adds Iceland to the
> list of Western nations that were pressured, and suggests that the
> push to prosecute Assange is part of a broader campaign. The effort,
> it explains,“exemplifies the start of an international effort to focus
> the legal element of national power upon non-state actor Assange, and
> the human network that supports WikiLeaks.” The entry does not specify
> how broadly the government defines that “human network,” which could
> potentially include thousands of volunteers, donors and journalists,
> as well as people who simply spoke out in defense of WikiLeaks.
> In a statement, the NSA declined to comment on the documents or its
> targeting of activist groups, noting only that the agency “provides
> numerous opportunities and forums for their analysts to explore
> hypothetical or actual circumstances to gain appropriate advice on the
> exercise of their authorities within the Constitution and the law, and
> to share that advice appropriately.”
> But the entry aimed at WikiLeaks comes from credentialed officials
> within the intelligence community. In an interview in Hong Kong last
> June, Edward Snowden made clear that the only NSA officials empowered
> to write such entries are those “with top-secret clearance and public
> key infrastructure certificates” – a kind of digital ID card enabling
> unique access to certain parts of the agency’s system. What’s more,
> Snowden added, the entries are “peer reviewed” – and every edit made
> is recorded by the system.
> The U.S. launched its pressure campaign against WikiLeaks less than a
> week after the group began publishing the Afghanistan war logs on July
> 25, 2010. At the time, top U.S. national security officials accused
> WikiLeaks of having “blood” on its hands. But several months later,
> McClatchy reported that “U.S. officials concede that they have no
> evidence to date that the documents led to anyone’s death.”
> The government targeting of WikiLeaks nonetheless continued. In April
> 2011, Salon reported that a grand jury in Virginia was actively
> investigating both the group and Assange on possible criminal charges
> under espionage statutes relating to the publication of classified
> documents. And in August of 2012, the Sydney Morning Herald, citing
> secret Australian diplomatic cables, reported that “Australian
> diplomats have no doubt the United States is still gunning for Julian
> Assange” and that “Australia’s diplomatic service takes seriously the
> likelihood that Assange will eventually be extradited to the US on
> charges arising from WikiLeaks obtaining leaked US military and
> diplomatic documents.”
> Bringing criminal charges against WikiLeaks or Assange for publishing
> classified documents would be highly controversial – especially since
> the group partnered with newspapers like The Guardian and The New York
> Times to make the war logs public. “The biggest challenge to the press
> today is the threatened prosecution of WikiLeaks, and it’s absolutely
> frightening,” James Goodale, who served as chief counsel of the Times
> during its battle to publish The Pentagon Papers, told the Columbia
> Journalism Review last March. “If you go after the WikiLeaks
> criminally, you go after the Times. That’s the criminalization of the
> whole process.”
> In November 2013, The Washington Post, citing anonymous officials,
> reported that the Justice Department strongly considered prosecuting
> Assange, but concluded it “could not do so without also prosecuting
> U.S. news organizations and journalists” who had partnered with
> WikiLeaks to publish the documents. According to the Post, officials
> “realized that they have what they described as a ‘New York Times
> problem’” – namely, that any theory used to bring charges against
> Assange would also result in criminal liability for the Times, The
> Guardian, and other papers which also published secret documents
> provided to WikiLeaks.
>
> NSA proposals to target WikiLeaks
> As the new NSA documents make clear, however, the U.S. government did
> more than attempt to engineer the prosecution of Assange. NSA analysts
> also considered designating WikiLeaks as a “malicious foreign actor”
> for surveillance purposes – a move that would have significantly
> expanded the agency’s ability to subject the group’s officials and
> supporters to extensive surveillance.
> Such a designation would allow WikiLeaks to be targeted with
> surveillance without the use of “defeats” – an agency term for
> technical mechanisms to shield the communications of U.S. persons from
> getting caught in the dragnet.
> That top-secret document – which summarizes a discussion between the
> NSA’s Office of the General Counsel and the Oversight and Compliance
> Office of the agency’s Threat Operations Center – spells out a
> rationale for including American citizens in the surveillance:
> “If the foreign IP is consistently associated with malicious cyber
> activity against the U.S., so, tied to a foreign individual or
> organization known to direct malicious activity our way, then there is
> no need to defeat any to, from, or about U.S. Persons. This is based
> on the description that one end of the communication would always be
> this suspect foreign IP, and so therefore any U.S. Person communicant
> would be incidental to the foreign intelligence task.”
> In short, labeling WikiLeaks a “malicious foreign target” would mean
> that anyone communicating with the organization for any reason –
> including American citizens – could have their communications
> subjected to government surveillance.
> When NSA officials are asked in the document if WikiLeaks or Pirate
> Bay could be designated as “malicious foreign actors,” the reply is
> inconclusive: “Let us get back to you.” There is no indication of
> whether either group was ever designated or targeted in such a way.
> The NSA’s lawyers did, however, give the green light to subject other
> activists to heightened surveillance. Asked if it would be permissible
> to “target the foreign actors of a loosely coupled group of hackers …
> such as with Anonymous,” the response is unequivocal: “As long as they
> are foreign individuals outside of the US and do not hold dual
> citizenship … then you are okay.”

> NSA Lawyers: “It’s Nothing to Worry About”
> Sanchez, the surveillance expert with the Cato Institute, says the
> document serves as “a reminder that NSA essentially has carte blanche
> to spy on non-Americans. In public statements, intelligence officials
> always talk about spying on ‘terrorists,’ as if those are the only
> targets — but Section 702 [of the 2008 FISA Amendments Act] doesn’t
> say anything about ‘terrorists.’ They can authorize collection on any
> ‘persons reasonably believed to be [located] outside the United
> States,’ with ‘persons’ including pretty much any kind of group not
> ‘substantially’ composed of Americans.”
> Sanchez notes that while it makes sense to subject some full-scale
> cyber-attacks to government surveillance, “it would make no sense to
> lump together foreign cyberattackers with sites voluntarily visited by
> enormous numbers of Americans, like Pirate Bay or WikiLeaks.”
> Indeed, one entry in the NSA document expressly authorizes the
> targeting of a “malicious” foreign server – offering Pirate Bay as a
> specific example –“even if there is a possibility that U.S. persons
> could be using it as well.” NSA officials agree that there is no need
> to exclude Americans from the surveillance, suggesting only that the
> agency’s spies “try to minimize” how many U.S. citizens are caught in
> the dragnet.
> Another entry even raises the possibility of using X-KEYSCORE, one of
> the agency’s most comprehensive surveillance programs, to target
> communications between two U.S.-based Internet addresses if they are
> operating through a “proxy” being used for “malicious foreign
> activity.” In response, the NSA’s Threat Operations Center approves
> the targeting, but the agency’s general counsel requests “further
> clarification before signing off.”
> If WikiLeaks were improperly targeted, or if a U.S. citizen were swept

> attitude seems to be one of indifference. According to the document –
> which quotes a response by the NSA’s Office of General Counsel and the
> oversight and compliance office of its Threat Operations Center –
> discovering that an American has been selected for surveillance must
> be mentioned in a quarterly report, “but it’s nothing to worry about.”
> The attempt to target WikiLeaks and its broad network of supporters
> drew sharp criticism from the group and its allies. “These documents

> alive,” says Baltasar Garzón, the Spanish former judge who now

> they are: a journalist and a media organization that are exercising
> their fundamental right to receive and impart information in its
> original form, free from omission and censorship, free from partisan
> interests, free from economic or political pressure.”
> For his part, Assange remains defiant. “The NSA and its U.K.

> be permitted to act against a journalist with impunity.”
> Assange indicated that in light of the new documents, the group may

> “We have instructed our general counsel, Judge Baltasar Garzón, to

>
> Our two countries actively cooperate within the tri-national
