This is a blatant abuse of trust and will reduce future trust and cooperation. We should be using our intelligence agencies to cooperate with those of our allies in order to combat terrorism. And as for those who have no interest in combating terrorism such as Pakistan for example, we shouldn't be allies with them any more.

I agree that mutual trust is vital in maintaining strong alliances. A great example of successful cooperation between intelligence agencies is the "Five Eyes" alliance, which includes the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. These countries share signals intelligence with each other, allowing for a more comprehensive approach to tackling global threats like terrorism. In your opinion, should the U.S. consider expanding this type of cooperation to include more allies, or is the current model sufficient?

I like the current model for now, but we should definitely look into exploring expansion of this cooperation, as long as new allies in this agreement would be trustworthy.
