  • An Interview with James Bamford
    Investigating the Puzzle Palace: An Interview with James Bamford BONNIE BRENNAN AND KATHERINE GILBERT QUESTION: Do you consider clandestine intelligence gathering a legitimate activity for a modern nation-state? BAMFORD: I think it is very legitimate; I ju.st think that it should be directed externally. It is unrealistic not to have clandestine activities, though to some extent NSA isn't even really engaged in clandestine collection. Thousands of signals are just falling down outside right now, and all they're doing is putting out a dish and collecting them. There's not really anything clandestine about it. A listening post is a large thing with big antennae that can be seen from the road. It's just technical collection gathering, and I don't think there's anything really wrong with that as long as they're concentrating on foreign countries. We assume foreign countries can do the same thing to the United States. The Soviet Union, I'm sure, has a big listening post in Cuba. I don't see anything wrong with that. QUESTION: In his book, The Codebreakers, David Kahn shows that intelligence gathering by nations is as old as civilization. In the nineteenth century, Clausewitz described "intelligence" as the "basis . of our own plans and operations" and posited that "unreliable and transient intelligence results in a flimsy structure that can easily collapse and bury us in its ruins." What, in your opinion, is the role of intelligence today? BAMFORD: The role of intelligence is to provide a government with a third eye to see what is going on in places where it can't otherwise see; it has expanded tremendously from thirty years ago when the concentration was on human intelligence.

  • Questioning the National Security Agency's Metadata Program
    I/S: A JOURNAL OF LAW AND POLICY FOR THE INFORMATION SOCIETY Secret without Reason and Costly without Accomplishment: Questioning the National Security Agency’s Metadata Program JOHN MUELLER & MARK G. STEWART* I. INTRODUCTION When Edward Snowden’s revelations emerged in June 2013 about the extent to which the National Security Agency was secretly gathering communications data as part of the country’s massive 9/11- induced effort to catch terrorists, the administration of Barack Obama set in motion a program to pursue him to the ends of the earth in order to have him prosecuted to the full extent of the law for illegally exposing state secrets. However, the President also said that the discussions about the programs these revelations triggered have actually been a good thing: “I welcome this debate. And I think it’s healthy for our democracy. I think it’s a sign of maturity because probably five years ago, six years ago, we might not have been having this debate.”1 There may be something a bit patronizing in the implication that the programs have been secret because we were not yet mature enough to debate them when they were put into place. Setting that aside, however, a debate is surely to be welcomed—indeed, much overdue. It should be conducted not only about the National Security Agency’s (NSA) amazingly extensive data-gathering programs to * John Mueller is a professor of political science at Ohio State University and a Senior Fellow at the Cato Insitute.

    LINCOLN MEMORIAL UNIVERSITY LAW REVIEW __________________________________ VOLUME 3 FALL 2015 _____________________________________ THE NSA’S EAVESDROPPING OPERATIONS AFTER THE SNOWDEN REVELATIONS: HOW MUCH IS TOO MUCH? JANUARY 2015 SYMPOSIUM TRANSCRIPT James Bamford MR. JACOB BAGGETT: I have the pleasure of introducing Mr. James Bamford as our first speaker. Mr. Bamford is an award-winning journalist in the field of national security. The New York Times calls him the nation's premier journalist on the subject of the NSA. And his most recent book, "The Shadow Factory", which is on sale outside by Union Avenue Books, was named by the Washington Post as one of the best books of the year. And he's here to discuss the transformation of the NSA since September 11th. Please welcome Mr. Bamford. (Applause) MR. JAMES BAMFORD: Thanks very much. It's really great being here. I want to thank Matt Lyon and Melanie Reid, Jacob Baggett, and Lauren Mullins for taking really great care of me. It's really great being here. The fact that this university is named after NSA AFTER SNOWDEN 116 President Lincoln is really quite an honor for me because I've always admired one of the things he's said. And that is the quote he has up here. I think if he had been President about a dozen years ago, we might not have gotten into the war in Iraq. If you read his quote there, "[k]ings had always been involving and impoverishing their people in wars, pretending generally, if not always, that the good of the people was the object."1 He was very much against attacking countries without getting congressional approval.

HISTORICAL CONTEXT Many BU alumni have made and continue to make important contributions to the US Intelligence Com- munity. Their dedicated efforts and unique achieve- ments seldom receive public recognition because of the highly classified nature of their work. Since begin- ning my teaching at BU, I have been heartened to see several of my BU students, who will remain nameless, embark on intelligence-related careers. Several BU Terriers’ good names, honorable ser- vice, and brave deeds have been made public. These alumni deserve to have their stories told. Similarly, other BU alumni have been either accused of com- mitting espionage or have been the target of US Gov- A Spy’s Guide to Boston University ernment surveillance.
