alt Hacker NewsSince the 1951 Angleton-Harel Secret Pact, there has been an unwritten agreement that CIA and Mossad will not spy on each others countries. Kiriakou (who is a wonk) confirmed as much in recent remarks.

There's written legislation saying the CIA/NSA/etc. can't spy on Americans.

He has CIA experience but his word shouldn't just be taken at face value. The man has unsettling views on buying pardons and excuses some other things away as well. Kiriakou shouldn't be trusted, IMO.

Kiriakou also stated several times that the Mossad was known to casually try to recruit CIA agents:
