The word ''Espionage'' comes from the [[French]] word ''espionage'', meaning literally "to spy". However, it was the Americans and Russians who made the most historical use of espionage, during the [[Cold War]]. Other countries who have used espionage include [[Israel]],[http://www.whatreallyhappened.com/spyring.html] [[Germany]] during [[World War II]], and [[Great Britain]]. Espionage is much less common today, except for [[industrial espionage]], which is what happens when one company spies on another one. However, it has been reported[http://sg.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20070408004907AA7xtaD] that [[Al Qaeda]] has planted spies in U.S. organizations, as well.
