How can you define the leader of an allied state as either an "enemy of the state" or a potential "terrorist"?

Any inteligence gathering operation should be targeted on the person of interest, not a dragnet. The NSA/GCHQ/DSD/Etc programmes are not making you safe. Instead those agencies are drowing in irrelevant information they can't use, but hope one day will be able to.
