You're just plain wrong. Not about the sushi. Europe doesn't have the means nor the corporate-government cooperation that the u.s. has for spying. It happens in Europe, even Switzerland, but for good, not evil. For example, Switzerland reoprting to the Red Cross the CIA rendition flights that it learned through its satellite communications monitoring program.

There's decent Mexican inn Basel. A Mexican and 1/2 Mexican Swiss have a restaurant.

Europe's a big place. My corner of it had a secret CIA prison.

Also there's a Vietnamese restaurant here called "Hong Kong Lounge". The crimes don't end at the US border.

Poland? Wasn't there political fallout from that?

About as much as in the US.

By which he means, not nearly anything close to what could even remotely be considered enough.

We in the EU like to smugly look at the USA with an air of superiority. But we're not much different — there is a small group that is outraged, and most people simply don't care.

Also Romania.

Btw, yes I know that it was reported to the Red Cross anonymously, not officially.
