That the U.S. spies on other
countries is no revelation; but the fact that our

of its citizens and the confidentiality of its official
communication is truly shocking.

It should not be shocking, especially to a news organization that had pretty stern words for the Indian Govt. Regarding its nuclear deal with the USA, and more recently collaborated with Wikileaks to publish diplomatic cables that featured India, that our overlords continue to act more like the vassals they are.
