The policy/directive to carry out the "spying" was a policy initiated by Sec of State Rice, and more recently continued by Sec of State Clinton.
I don't know if it was started by Rice or simply continued by her. I believe that point was ambiguous when I first read it... I wouldn't be surprised if it was started by Rice and was precipitated by the 9/11 attacks.

Did you miss this question?

If it were you, would you go to some of those countries knowing they think you are a spy. Consider what they do to spies... Waterboarding would be like taking a vacation.
