"The Israelis were required to "destroy upon recognition" any communication "that is either to or from an official of the US government". Such communications included those of "officials of the executive branch (including the White House, cabinet departments, and independent agencies), the US House of Representatives and Senate (member and staff) and the US federal court system (including, but not limited to, the supreme court)"."
It's obvious. Those in power are above the rest of us, from your local police officer to the president. They simply do not have to obey the law because there is no one to hold them accountable.
