Why the scare quotes around "enemy"?

"Enemy" is a weird word ("adversary" is probably better), but however you slice it: NSA's mission includes real ones.
Stated as vaguely as you have, that's a hard argument to rebut. I tend to agree: the world would be a safer place if everything was publicly disclosed immediately. But even NSA's opponents tend not to support that as a policy objective.
