5.0 out of 5 stars Learn the whole backstory . . ., June 4, 2008
This review is from: Intelligence Activities and the Rights of Americans: 1976 US Senate Report on Illegal Wiretaps and Domestic Spying by the FBI, CIA and NSA (Paperback)
When George Bush tore up the Constitution and began a program of illegally spying on American citizens by tapping their communications, it wasn't the first time the government decided that "national security" was more important than civil liberties. In the 50's and 60's, under five different Administrations (both Democratic and Republican), the FBI, CIA, and NSA were also spying on Americans. The whole sordid story was uncovered in 1975 by the Church Committee, and they detailed their findings in this report. It's all here -- illegal mail interceptions, illegal phone taps, illegal burglaries to install listening bugs. Reading this report, it is remarkable how much of Bush's illegal domestic spying is just a repeat of what the Nixon, Johnson, Kennedy, Eisenhower and Truman Administrations all did before -- all of which was outlawed by the FISA laws that Bush unilaterally decided he didn't have to follow.
