Spying on the U.S. is not a crime, and doesn't need to be. Between sovereign entities there is no rule of law, and sovereign entities have an inherent right to do whatever they need to protect their interests. It's a very different situation from the domestic criminal justice system.

As I said earlier, spying on the US government is a crime in the eyes of the US government. I think many a caught spy that was convicted for espionage would disagree with your statement that it is not a crime.
