This is my first post on lemmy so bear with me. Last week someone associated with the US govt floated the idea of kicking Canada out of the Five Eyes network. A week later… would you look at that. Thoughtless and unwarranted actions have consequences.

no country should share intelligence with the US considering sharing intelligence with the US under trump is just handing it directly to putin

@cupcakezealot @CircaV Except for impending terrorist attacks. Otherwise I agree.

Why should one of the eyes (Canada) help the country trying to annex it through economic means?

@NotSteve_ Because someone blowing himself up at a daycare is evil

So is annexing/crippling your ally or cutting off all aid to Ukraine (including intelligence)

@NotSteve_ I agree. I Just dont think letting baby’s die is the correct answer. I mean fuck the fucking fucks. But that does not include the little ones.

Yeah, that’s fair. Admittedly I think the US would has even warned Russia of impending terrorist attacks (before the US and Russia became good friends)

The US has informed Russia of suspected upcoming terrorist attacks, under a “duty to warn” policy. Iran, too. Whether that information was sufficient or useful, we have only the State Department’s word, but it is still worth noting.

@NotSteve_ Well thr US infact did do that. Remember that big ISIS attack on a moscow concert hall about a year ago?

Edit: seems like a lifetime ago

A lot of people - including me - instinctively say “good, let’s make it the four eyes and exclude the US.”

But really, we need to do away with the x-eyes program entirely, in its current form.

Shared intelligence is great, but the biggest advantage to 5Eyes has always been that it indirectly allows countries to spy on their own citizens. It’s invasive, illegal bullshit that needs to stop.

Now it’s four eyes

lol, nerds

/s

Haha, nerds, sharing their intelligence

meanwhile, USA is smoking meth in the bathroom

how can I claim this is Canada’s fault?

Thanks for your first post here. I’m very new and have only posted some sunrise pics. Well anyway, a friend of mine back in England about 32 years ago said to me that “America is the greatest threat to world peace”. I didn’t believe him and didn’t understand. I was obviously a lot younger, and a lot more ignorant to the way of the world.
Well, look at it all now. John, you were actually making sense, thanks.

Fucking john

Good post about the five eyes, thanks.

Now, about posting here on Lemmy, you may want to know that :

You can edit your post (title, url and header) even after it is posted.

Here a link has this format :
[name](http://abc.def.com/...)

not this :
[[Five Eyes network]()]()

Good, now to eliminate the other eyes and not have loopholes like five eyes allowing countries to illegally spy on their own citizens.

Good. Fuck Five Eyes.

Good. The US should be given the cold shoulder, or not be given the same access and information they had before. They can’t be trusted. Does anyone really think he wouldn’t share any information he’s given with his Russian handlers? Right now, they’re a threat to the other four members’ national security.

Pirates: oh no… Oh no that CAN’T be? Say it isn’t TRUE! 😂
