The United Nations has confirmed that it is planning to “contact” the United States about the revelation that the NSA bugged its New York headquarters and conducted intensive surveillance of its internal operations.
The reports, which came out over the weekend, showed NSA surveillance operations involving scores of US embassies targeting the UN, EU, IAEA and other international agencies.
Of particular note was the “Special Collection Service,” which managed to break into the encrypted internal video communications system of the United Nations and was intercepting conversations en masse.
UN officials say that it is a well established part of the 1961 Vienna Convention that the United Nations’ functions aren’t supposed to be subjected to surveillance operations. The US has been fond of citing the convention in demanding diplomatic immunity for its spies abroad when they are arrested, since many of them are snuck into other countries as “embassy personnel.”
The only thing worse than making someone angry with you is to make them tired of having to deal with you. Make someone mad and you can try to defuse the anger– become tiresome, like a brother-in-law who can't stop meddling, and all people want to see is the screen door slamming your backside– for the last time.
America is at it again, this time is for US government all inn or nothing which is the reasons for all that surveillance from EU to Brazil to UN and rest of the world. This is beyond looking into people's bedroom, telephone or emails, they already have that system placed, this is to control the world communications in case USA and NATO start the war with Iran, Russia or China which indicates that England and USA "paranoia" has reached the point of no return. Encircling China, Iran and Russia militarily is the other reason for Third World War to be started within or after Syrian war. All that is, preparing for all inn or nothing.
The UN is a joke.
The joke in the Sasha Gray video a month or so back is still perfect. The UN should just pick up a phone and start talking, with the assumption of course that they'll be talking directly to the NSA and that every word they say should be heard.
The US government knows this is wrong. That's why they lie to their 'allies' and say they aren't spying. And its why they lie to the American people and say they only do it to search for terrorists. All those lies are admissions that they know this is wrong, unethical, illegal and impeachable.
