"I would really love to hear once more from some March 14th politician why it is
so important for the Lebanese people to handle all of their telecommunication
data to their Western friends. And why this had absolutely nothing to do with
the spying programs of the USA…
(Well, at least, it could be useful to remind us that opening all of Lebanon's “telephone metadata” to the US was one of March 14th very important political demands these last years.)
Yesterday in the Guardian (along with other “PRISM” revelations):
Iran was the country where the largest amount of intelligence was gathered, with more than 14bn reports in that period, followed by 13.5bn from Pakistan. Jordan, one of America’s closest Arab allies, came third with 12.7bn, Egypt fourth with 7.6bn and India fifth with 6.3bn." (thanks Nidal)
