- sorrowfulgeek 7y agoTrue. In the past Israel has been caught spying on the US, and Obama has apologised for spying on Chancellor Merkel. But such spying between friendly nations is not as serious a threat as spying between adversarial nations. The two are not equal. If there is going to be spying anyway, being spied on by a friend is far better than being spied on by your mortal enemy although no spying at all would be preferable.
