Analyst's note:  Absolutely must read, see and carefully consider.  Speaking of the understandably secretive National Security Agency (NSA) behemoth who's mission is to  spy on our enemies (Al Qaeda threat is 'very specific' as US issues travel alert  ... a worldwide travel alert and close down of 22 embassies and consulates for the weekend is serious and 'very specific,' ), not "political enemies of politicians," and so necessary to the our national security, that same NSA that was just revealed by leaker Edward Snowden (now in Russia) to be used to spy on Americans and their emails, telephone calls and web habits ... was doing the same thing a decade ago, according to two former agents who were interviewed by PBS. 

BTW, we also just learned that FoxNews is reporting the FBI Can Turn On Your Phone Mic.  The world we live in is NOT always a save place. The big Taliban jailbreak in Pakistan wasn’t the only major one. And like the Pakistani one, it was also an inside job. But NOT to fear, Mr. Obama Frees Taliban from Gitmo, Neglects to Exchange Them for Captured US Soldier.  A top US official said that the prisoners were released under the condition that they will not engage in any violent activity.  No wonder the American people ask lots of questions.

We also have MrConservative reporting that Mr. Obama Creates A “Nudge Squad” To Secretly Control Your Behavior.  This is the same

"President Obama has failed in many ways to get Americans to follow along with his giant government, Big Brother ways. So, instead of changing his policies to what you want, he’s investing your tax dollars into creating ways to “nudge” you into accepting his extreme policy ideas. [....]"

And don't forget What? Social Security Administration Now Hiring for Counterintelligence Operations. This Obama administration is Counterintelligence operations that require top secret, sensitive, compartmented information security clearances for collaboration, intelligence and information sharing missions against the American people.  They will be working with members of law enforcement and “resolving counterintelligence” that presents a “credible threat” .... to the Social Security Administration.  Now I ask you, what could possibly go wrong ....?

This is the same Obama

The Obama administration, as discussed in ALERT-There really is a Traitor in our U.S. Whitehouse and more! points out:

"But it's not just an assault on our economy.  He's making a frontal assault on our culture, our moral foundations, our very existence as a cohesive society.  Everything he does is to divide us against each other, by race, by class, or any other division he can get a wedge into.  He wants amnesty and citizenship for tens of millions of illegal aliens not just to get an insuperable number of Democrat votes, but to create a culturally divided society, divided by hate and envy."

But what do we expect from a group who is now advised by socialist/Marxist as well as the Muslim Brotherhood, and who funds these Islamist devils with your tax money?  How much of your information is being shared with the Muslim Brotherhood advisors that may be used for later "more personal targeting" of the American citizen?  Yes, the same Muslim Brotherhood who's mission in America is "destroying Western civilization from within and ‘sabotaging' its miserable house by their hands and the hands of the believers so that it is eliminated and God's religion is made victorious over all other religions."

This is the same administration from which new revelations are surfacing on the federal government’s Behavioral Insights Team, which is no doubt connected to the Social Security Administration’s (SSA) counterintelligence build-up.  Yes you read it right, that is counterintelligence against you, the American citizen.  Some of the Intelligence Operations Specialist duties, of which I speak, include working with members of law enforcement and “resolving counterintelligence” that presents a “credible threat” to the SSA.

Is it any wonder that American citizens continually must ask themselves the question, “What’s to say even if we have a government right now that would not think of [using information inappropriately], what about the next administration, or the one after that?”  And no, it is not just the U.S. that is talking see Project Prism and colour Indigo about such issues where the state and its officials can abuse the private information for political purpose or/and harassing citizens for personal benefits.  They note that "[....] about 85% of worlds internet traffic flows through the territory of USA. Additionally all important servers such as primary domain name resolution servers and internet exchanges are located under the control of department of commerce of USA. This forces practically most of the countries to send their data to USA for processing."  Since most of the controlling systems of the Internet are under the control of U.S. government. we can expect the international community will try to join hands with other countries to get these servers out of the positive control of U.S. government.

I for one can hardly wait, this is just what the world needs ...  a "cyber UN."  On-going family feuds should really not be announced on the street corner.

Two veterans of the National Security Agency, that secretive behemoth that was revealed by leaker Edward Snowden to be spying on Americans and their emails, telephone calls and web habits, was doing the same thing a decade ago, according to two former agents who were interviewed by PBS.

William Binney and Russell Tice were interviewed recently on the PBS NewsHour, and a video has been posted online.

Questions about their experiences were prompted by the recent revelations from leaker Edward Snowdown, who worked for a contractor for the federal government and had access to NSA secrets, about how invasive the spying on Americans has become.

But Binney, who retired after three decades with the agency, and Tice, who was fired after 20 years when he demanded congressional protection for whistleblowers, suggested it wasn’t anything new. They were referencing the time period of about 2000-2003.

Tice said he was working with information obtained by satellites, and that’s how he knew the NSA was spying on Americans.

“At that time it was news organizations, the State Department, including Colin Powell, an awful lot of senior people,” he said.

Binney said he was in a different division, and actually was watching the input from “the world.”

“I got to see the entire input from the world, looking at how to you consolidate and analyze very large sets of data,” he said.

He said one of the reasons he became concerned was that it was obvious all telephone records were being obtained and stored.

Tice said, “NSA [agents] were targeting individuals. Judges like the Supreme Court. I held in my hand Judge Alito’s targeting information for phones, his staff, his family. At that time there was a senator who I didn’t know who he was, guy named Barack Obama…”

The former agents explained much of the data access was done “in the evenings.”

And they said the story that the Utah NSA complex soon will be online to store information is a fake; they said it’s already fully operational.

And they confirmed the size of that project means the actual content of telephone calls and other communications is being archived indefinitely.

The “metadata,” about which the federal government has talked, for the entire world could fit in a 10 by 20 room, and would not need millions of square feet of storage space, they said.

It’s a concern, they said.

“What’s to say even if we have a government right now that would not think of [using information inappropriately], what about the next administration, or the one after that?” Tice said.
