Why would they even care?

Why don't they complain about the wiretapping at the UN (i.e., the entire reason the UN building is located in New York)?

This has literally been happening for like 70 years now. Who cares.

There's a school of thought that holds that it's a basic human right not to be wiretapped unless you're officially being investigated for a crime.
I'm not a subscriber, but there it is.

"Basic human rights" hold for rights given to you by nature, when no society exists.

There's nothing in nature protecting your speech from being overheard or investigated by others.

America spies on EVERYTHING. No surprises here.

Rights are taken away by government, not bestowed by them.

It's interesting to hear about but you're right, international espionage always happens, Israel probably knew something of the kind was going on. Their "protest" is for appearances, just like the protests of EU leaders when it turned out they're being wiretapped.

>Why don't they complain about the wiretapping at the UN?
Because the UN is a joke.
A better question is why UN complexes in Gaza are used to house rockets fired at Israel

Fuck Israel.

You.

This is not really news. nsa, gchq, etc.

But it reminded me of the same shit, Goverments watch everything. They do, sneaky fuckers.

It isn't news that they do it, it's news that they got caught, again.
