His bowtie is really a camera  

At first I was shocked by the revelation that the NSA is surveilling other countries' UN delegations for strategic advantage. But maybe I shouldn't be - the story does say that many diplomats to the UN assume they are being bugged. At any rate, this won't help our efforts to win over other nations for the war effort. Rather, it's the kind of intimidation you'd expect from a country with a strategy of preemtion.

By the way, I'm also suprised that this story hasn't made it into the American press... does that have implications for its veracity?
