No. Did the NSA prevent 9-11? The guy was in a sand bunker watching porn and playing Xbox, and we couldn't stop him.
@6HDD83R4yrs4Y
Yes, but only with the consent from the country in question, and should be allowed the option to withdraw their consent if necessary

@michaelconnely3yrs3Y
The question has too many variables to answer completely.
@8QNN3CF4yrs4Y
Yes but only if the country in question gives permission
@8LSVCGK4yrs4Y
Yes, but those with terrorist ties, not innocent citizens

No, but continue or start it if suspicious of terrorist or activity of any sort
@8PH55464yrs4Y
yes, but only on government enemies, not on common citizens
