22. I would be...SO fired right now if I was a collection manager

1. Under provisions of (double-secret book that says you can't do this shit), absent exigent circumstances no collection against allies of the United States shall be conducted.

2. Examples of exigent circumstances sufficient to authorize collection tasking against an ally of the United States are counterdrug/counterespionage operations in which inadvertent collection of allied communications may occur. All such intercept of allied communications shall be handled under Agency minimization directives.

3. Having a president with a one-inch penis who wants to invade an allied nation to show how manly he is, or whatever in the holy fuck is this stupid bastard's justification for committing an international crime, is NOT an exigent circumstance.

4. This agency cannot and will not collect intelligence on any allied nation, and the rest of the US intelligence community similarly refuses to do this.
