Press TV: Why would the NSA and its British counterpart the GCHQ want to spy on UN organizations, especially charity groups?
Schechter: I’m not here to speak for the NSA why they would do this; nobody really makes much sense of what they’re doing right now. They seem to have vast spy targets that they are monitoring and are collecting data on that range of governmental agencies to non-government agencies; from espionage centers to non-espionage centers; the Israelis to the EU.
And to the competition chief in the EU, which suggests that there is an economic target here not just a political target. And that’s what’s really important for us to realize.

It seems as if the NSA under attack at home from various judges; under attack from various panels appointed by the White House challenging the range of what they’re looking at, calling for them to stop this massive spying, this overreach.
There has also been protests from the technology companies that met with President Obama and that pushed President Obama to restrain the spying - called for a stop to it.

And this one here of course is not something that would play very big in the United State, you know, spying on Medicine Without Frontiers, spying on charities, spying on the EU because most Americans don’t know what the EU is or what it does for the most part... but the fact is that these stories are getting more and more play in the American media.
Once again it seems like Edward Snowden is the American media man of the year because he is generating more news than any one person. Time Magazine honored the Pope – I think you’ll see Edward Snowden being reluctantly perhaps acknowledged as a major source of news by many outlets.
