No, I caught that.

I just didnt think that under the Patriot Act (at least in 2006) Israel was considered a terrorist or terrorist-sponsoring where calls to and by US citizens were to be taped. I also didnt see the part where this was an overseas call- ?

Frankly any diplomatic contingent in the US is an agent, open or undercover, for that govt. Did NSA also record conversations Congress had with Irish lobbyists?

Count on it, if the lobbyist is a foreign diplomat. That conversation is categorically of interest as possibly containing "foreign intelligence information," and is thereby subject to being obtained without reference to a court approval.
