Five eyes is a criminal conspiracy construct designed to evade US laws prohibiting the CIA from spying on American citizens.
US law prohibits this activity. So the CIA hires foreign governments to spy on American citizens. Then they claim they were handed the information by another government so they did not violate US law.
But they set up the entire arrangement for that end. Now they even provide the targets.
It’s like murder for hire and the person who set it in motion claiming innocence.
Ding, ding, ding! You nailed it in a nutshell. This is the intelligence deep state everyone is going to have to understand, so that we can rid the planet of that scourge.
