NSA, FBI spying shows US 'is no longer a free country': Journalist

[Iran Press TV] Newly disclosed documents that show the US government spied on several prominent Moslem-Americans for years demonstrate that America is "no longer a free country," an American former university lecturer said.

"They're being manipulated by the NSA so that they would be forced to cooperate with the FBI. This is a common tactic that's been used against the Moslem community," Barrett said.
