EELD - I suppose the guys over in Kaliningrad decided it would be best if the US didn't have a system capable of finding their rogue time agents, loose cannon AI agents, and basilisk level comrades.

Having Snowden blow the cap on the only surveillance systems in the world capable of tracking and stopping true non-terrestrial or extra-dimensional threats to the Earth, good show lads.

However, we don't need our governments to carry this one. You see, there are certain groups and organizations established under Eisenhower, that none of you idiots in your capital offices have any idea about. There's no Jason Bourne movie that shows you how a seemingly loose unconnected group of advanced individuals with super-human capabilities can obtain training, enhancement, full time careers, and the capability to treat non-program humans as if they were squirrels and woodland creatures in terms of intelligence... All the while, having been established in an age that pre-dates the first thermo warheads and official space exploration.

X-men come after the Cold War... They never really have a good story about the groups that were started before.

Images of matchstick men and you.
