It is important to remember that isolationism can be triggered not only by a potential retreat from global affairs, but also by the rather imprudent use of America’s hard and soft power on the world stage,” writes Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg for Project Syndicate.<\/p>\n “We are not reassured by the often-heard explanation that everyone spies on everyone else all the time. We are not advocating a return to 1929 when Secretary of State Henry Stimson banned the decryption of diplomatic cables because ‘gentlemen do not read each other’s mail.’ But there has long been an understanding that international spying was done in pursuit of a concrete threat to national security<\/a>,” the New York Times<\/em> writes in an editorial. \u00a0http:\/\/www.cfr.org\/about\/newsletters\/archive\/newsletter\/n1534<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n The espionage scandal involving the USA is hurting the USA now and will hurt it more in the future.\u00a0 Karl Guttenberg is a German temporarily living in the USA, and is one I have wondered about possibly being the final King of the North (see also Might German Baron Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg become the King of the North?<\/a>).<\/p>\n What many Europeans want is that the USA will treat them the same way they treat the Anglo-nations, which have been called the “five eyes”:<\/p>\n Confronted with European fury at US spying<\/a>, Washington is divided over whether its allies\u2019 anger is genuine or a calculation that they can use the revelations to change the terms of intelligence sharing and targeting….<\/p>\n Underlying the debate over Ms Merkel are longstanding and deep tensions over intelligence sharing between the US and European nations such as Germany and France.<\/p>\n The US has for decades, and with few interruptions, shared intelligence with four other countries, the UK, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, under the so-called \u201cfive eyes\u201d agreement<\/a> which includes a proviso that they do not spy on each other.<\/p>\n \u201cGermany and France have long resented this special relationship in intelligence,\u201d said Tim Naftali, of the New America Foundation. \u201cBut the question is whether [France and Germany] would be able to accept the co-ordination of their foreign policies that comes along with the agreement.\u201d<\/p>\n When intelligence agencies discuss targeting they are giving away what they know, said Mr Naftali. \u201cIs the US prepared to do that across the board with France and Germany?\u201d\u00a0http:\/\/www.ft.com\/intl\/cms\/s\/0\/b9fc90ae-3ff4-11e3-a890-00144feabdc0.html#axzz2j7WaaEUy<\/a><\/p>\n The United Kingdom \u2013 United States of America Agreement<\/strong> (UKUSA<\/strong>,…is a multilateral agreement for cooperation in signals intelligence between the United Kingdom, the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.

\nWill USA Spying Help the Beast Power?<\/a> Various allegations have surfaced about the United States government spying on its own citizens as well as its supposed allies in the European Union. Whether or not all the espionage allegations are true, and the main ones have not been publicly denied by the government of the USA, the reality is that this does have prophetic ramifications and will help the Beast of Revelation. This video provides quotes from the Bible showing how this is so. The USA is placing itself in a position to be taken over and its response to the allegations will make it easier for the Europeans to do so.

\nWill the Anglo-Nations be Divided and Have People Taken as Slaves?<\/a> Will the lands of the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand be divided? What about Jerusalem?

\nWill the UK Lose Gibraltar and the Falkland Islands?<\/a> Spain wants Gibraltar and Argentina wants the Falklands (also known as the Malvinas). Does the Bible give clues as to what will happen with these \u2018sea gates\u2019? A related video would be Will the UK Lose Gibraltar and the Falkland Islands?<\/a> A version in Spanish is \u00bfPerder\u00e1 el Reino Unido a Gibraltar y las Islas Falkland (Malvinas)?<\/a>
