Full Title: Obama substantially Changes America
Obama making really sure the Germans totally LOVE us, I see.
How’s that Russian RESET BUTTON coming, btw..?
And now about Iran..?
Throw your Nobel Peace Prize at them, Barry.
The police? This is a political move. The police don’t have the equipment to detect spy equipment. The way to do it is to set up a broad range antenna and scan the spectrum while focusing on likely targets. Likely targets are windows and plastic or fiberglass domes on the roofs. It is unlikely an embassy would have such radiating equipment because it needs to be in a location where it can hit a target of interest.
More likely, satellite phone emissions and transfer towers would be targeted. They might bounce microwaves or lasers off individual windows, but that wouldn’t be done from an embasy. They need plausible deniability.
Spying as suggested in the article is extremely unlikely.
Still kicking themselves over losing the Battle of Stalingrad, I betcha.
“an unnamed official claimed Germany wanted to send a message that eavesdropping technologies would not be tolerated on its soil”
Totally bogus since the US maintains NSA/NRO/DIA and other assets on German soil with the cooperation and joint operation of the German military and government.
I’m thinking that several dozen million candle watt spot lights trained on that helicopter would deter future such “visits”
I spent several TDY’s at Tuefelsberg in Berlin as a trainer teaching cryptography.
The facility is closed now. Here’s a picture:
I also taught the same classes at Bad Aibling outside of Munich:
I spent half my military career around giant "golf balls". Germany had/has a lot of them!
Every country has always spied on every other country. Germany can’t say they aren’t spying on the US.
They don’t need us to save them from the Russians anymore. + Barry is alienating them on purpose.
How things change...
