Director of National Intelligence James Clapper challenged recent reports in Le Monde newspaper detailing US surveillance programmes in France.

No- he is telling the truth:

Notice:

He doesn't say they don't have the information - he says they didn't collect it. Probably French security did and then traded it with them for something else - look at the calm reaction of the French authorities.
He makes no mention of the bugging of French diplomats (because they did do that).

You have to learn to read into the double speak here.

If Clapper told me that water was wet, I'd check for myself.

Yes, of course the US intelligence community obtained that information through other sources, but didn't "collect" it themselves.

And when you did, the water would probably shudder and change, becoming dry, because of some mystic Lie-magic these kinds of people can employ.

This on top of the headline today that the U.S. government was tapping Angela Merkel's mobile phone. Seriously, what the fuck?

Why would anyone tap the phones of Frenchmen is beyond me, really.

Must be all those "French Fry" propaganda sales in the US. Terrorism, either in the form of bombs or french fries, must be fought to the fullest extent of our ability to protect our freedom. Even if it means giving up our freedom to win this battle against those forces of evil.
