NSA spying inquiry may be expanded
By ERIC LICHTBLAU
The New York Times
WASHINGTON - Congressional officials said Saturday that they wanted to
investigate the disclosure that the National Security Agency (NSA) had
gained access to some of the country's main telephone arteries to glean data
on possible terrorists.
"As far as congressional investigations are concerned, these new revelations
can only multiply and intensify the growing list of questions and concerns
about the warrantless surveillance of Americans," said Sen. Patrick Leahy of
Vermont, ranking Democrat on the Judiciary Committee.
Members of the Judiciary Committee have indicated they intend to conduct
hearings on the president's legal authority to order domestic eavesdropping
on terrorism suspects without a warrant.
But congressional officials said Saturday they probably would expand the
review to include the disclosure that the security agency, using its access
to giant phone "switches," also traced and analyzed phone and Internet
traffic in much larger volumes than what the Bush administration
acknowledged previously.

Doomed to defeat by the superior Allied forces, it was thought that the
forces of fascism had been routed and that the world was safe for democracy.
The irony is that the intelligence apparatus of the U.S. government saved
many of the most hardened Nazi war criminals from a certain execution in
order to recruit them as scientists, spies and guerrilla warriors in the
anticipated war with the Soviet Union. And this had dire effects on our
country's democracy.
Many Americans may not be aware of this wide spread recruitment of SS and
Gestapo alumni into our intelligence agencies but it has had a profound
effect on the shaping of our domestic and foreign policy, often with ruinous
consequences. The legacy of this incorporation of Nazis into the CIA and
U.S. military has been a half a century of support for fascist regimes,
juntas, death squads, torture and the overthrow of democratically elected
governments around the world.
