Re: Embarrassment != Damage

Snowden blew the whistle on the dirty tricks our governments get up to and for that we should be grateful. It goes without saying that the activities of the state are directed at the people. Little do they care if there is a terrorist outrage, rather it gives them the excuse to watch everybody more closely.

We can only hope that more of this dirt on our governments is exposed.

NATO is an anachronism following the fall of the Berlin wall - and we would do well instead to support European defence initiatives.
