U.S. Government Has Same Wireless Monitoring Ability as Iran

It’s hard to tell whether the problem is ignorance or hypocrisy, but Senators Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) and Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) are making fools of themselves with their war on Nokia Siemens for supplying the Iranian government with equipment that lets authorities monitor wireless phone calls and data transmissions.

The two senators have called on Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton to pressure the European Union to stop telcom sales to Iran. They also said they would introduce legislation that would bar U.S. government contracts to companies that sell Iran equipment that facilitate monitoring.

The difference

by Anonymous5 (not verified) on

The difference is that this technology used by a democratic government has limited danger, while when its used by a bunch of lawless murderers like the ayatollahas, then it takes on another meaning. In the U.S. there are somewhat fair contestable trials, in Iran closed door rapid trials using medieval sharia law.

No, its not the same and there is not hipocracy here.
