Im very concerned about privacy issues, but I think this aids in the fight against terrorism. Of the ones arrested it never states why. I only skimmed the article and will look more into this. I think the war isolated America (IMO IMO IMO) from a majority of the world. So Im tempted to think that countries which once aided the US in fighting terrorism; by arresting such in they're countries, might not be so eager to clamp down on suspects. Satellites are great, the CIA has large ears, but US intelligence cant be everywhere, and I think that some collateral cooperation has been destroyed. With that in mind and the fact that we dont use the military like so many other countires do; and protect the borders, such steps as whats happening here are needed. I feel safer knowing they're obtaining this info. If the government has my social, my pictrue, and probably more info than I think they do on me; someone born here, then why not someone from countries where a common theme is against America?
