Re: Ole. Jule Re: A mild reaction
"....the CIA station chief could have been jailed and charged (or worse)....." Well, one hopes that, even in the your socio-political Utopia, the correct chain of events would be charged, tried, then if convicted, jailed? I know that's not how it happens in a lot of the Workers Paradises, but even Merkel knows she has to follow the law when pushing such vote-bait. And, besides, if the Germans wanted to charge the CIA station chief they would have to actually gather enough evidence of criminal activity, which - going by the fact they have already dropped the vote-baiting 'investigation' into 'mass surveillance' (even Pootie's propaganda service, RT, have admitted that - http://rt.com/news/162120-germany-nsa-case-spying/), seems unlikely.
And then there would also be the chance the CIA section chief, in his own defence, might ask in court how Germany justifies their own involvement in mass surveillance and spying (https://my.news.yahoo.com/germany-france-spain-carry-mass-surveillance-snowden-files-131011005.html), which doubtless has listened in to more than a few American conversations?
So, no, it is highly unlikely even Merkel would risk arresting and charging the CIA station chief.
