I'm going to bookmark this thread for the next time someone uses Madsen as a source at DU.

(22,541 posts)The other countries are being incredibly hypocritical, though. I think the agreements in the original article may be a little off. I haven't read the new one yet. You might find some of this interesting, though.

You can even see who launched the satellites for the countries listed. And even though it's gobbledygook to most people, the description of Army and Marine tactical sigint operations is accurate. Amazingly, it's the same as I used way back when. And we worked directly with NSA. People have the wrong idea about NSA's mission. They don't have time to give a flying fuck about what anybody needs to pick up from the market on the way home from work. Or whether they vote or for whom they vote.
