The Five Eyes is the most powerful spying alliance in history. Forged in the conflagration of World War II, the intelligence-sharing pact among the U.S., Canada, Britain, Australia and New Zealand helped defeat Nazism and Communism, fend off al Qaeda and Islamic State and shield its members from the ever-growing risk of cyberattacks.
Now former and serving members of the Five Eyes and outside experts say it is facing its biggest challenge ever: President Trump’s pledge to curb the “Deep State” by overhauling America’s vast intelligence apparatus. Trump left the Five Eyes alone during his first term and hasn’t named it as a target for his second, but his deep mistrust of U.S. intelligence agencies has security officials worried. Some believe that Trump sees the Five Eyes, like other U.S. alliances, as a racket in which foreign states benefit from U.S. resources, said Brian Boetig, a retired FBI official who helped manage strategic engagement with the Five Eyes.
“Our allies are now sitting back and wondering because of the rhetoric coming out of Washington,” said David P. Oakley, a former senior CIA official who is now academic director at the University of South Florida’s Global and National Security Institute.

oh let’s hope so
He had better. It was that alliance that started the huge Russia hoax
Did “Five Eyes” Try To Blow Up Trump in connection with the Russia Hoax?
Its evil, its a NWO tool and its being misused by the likes of traitor Marxist John Brennan.
If I was reading my newspaper and eating a sandwich, and read that Trump had stripped naked, and was running around the capitol building swinging an axe and hacking at people, I’d think to myself, “ About damn time. Man of the people.” And I would turn the page and keep eating my sandwich.
Ditto.
Blow up
Most effective
Childish language
Worthless drivel
The Five Eyes is the most powerful spying alliance in history.
Come on now, admit it. You’d also take a sip of your drink.
TOTALLY.
MOST OF THESE ‘tards need to be sent back to their mothers’ basements.
“Will Trump blow up Americas most effective spying alliance?”
He’d better.
Cutting through the BS, The Five Eyes is how the Deep State international elites get around domestic espionage laws. The ruling party uses foreign agencies to spy on their political opponents, and then they all return the favor. Think about how the Steele dossier worked.
“...Forged in the conflagration of World War II...”

Obsolete.
We have Constitutional rights. Can't be doing that.
We should have ended the Five Eyes after WWII.
And also keep Russia and China as ‘enemies’ instead of mutually beneficial trading partners. And get the rest of the world to hate Americans.
All to benefit the smallest exclusive slice of our population.
Everything has expiration date, even the so-called most effective alliance.
Fishy that they preemptively start to say this.
The “Five Eyes” part of it is just a name.
If administration surrounding it is the problem, then it’s a problem.
But it won’t “blow up” any of the actual efficient activities.
Are they spending more time watching dangerous illegal aliens planted in their counties by hostile foreign governments or are they spending more time spying on the political opposition that has been threatening to take control back from the deep state? Just about everyone on both sides knows the answer.
