"The law couldn't be clearer on this issue," he said. "Not only is the NSA's spying program unauthorized by federal law, but we suspect that conversations of thousands of Americans have been subjected to illegal surveillance by the NSA."

And there you have it.This lawsuitisn't about any alledged violation of the plaintiffs' rights. It's about shutting down the wholeprogram. Thanks for doing your part to defend terrorists, ACLU.
The first question I have to ask is how do the plaintiffsknow they were wiretapped by the NSA? Do you get a notice in the mail after the fact? I highly doubt it.
Oh, but it gets better:

The two men who founded the chapter, Pete Seda and Soliman Al-Buthe, are fugitives. Seda is believed to be in his nativeIran and Al-Buthe, a Saudi national, is believed to have returned to that country. Neither have extradition treaties with the United States.

So the ACLU is suing the NSA on behalf of two NON-U.S. PERSONS who may have been monitored under FISA? Again, it becomes crystal clear what the ACLU's true motives are. And I bet that if they win the suit, they'll go ahead and hold onto the $2 million in requested damages, for safe keeping of course.
Well, there you have it. Glad to see someone is looking out for the interests on international terrorist fugtives.... [:'(]
