These are enlightening links. Incredible really.

How a so called ally can perform such levels of espionage and the US has a hand in paying for their own ‘downfall’. I suppose the only reason Israel gets away with it is due to the influence Israel has on politicians with AIPAC/lobbying efforts.

"NSA tapped German Chancellery for decades, WikiLeaks claims"

Danuker - HN is not allowing me to reply to you directly.

Though, I do disagree with spying on allies. There is a history with Germany that may have given credence to the wiretapping.

With that said, the US is not giving Israel weapons to China. But, Israel has given US tech to China (and likely will again).
