This really has nothing to do with the US government. While the US worries the hell out of me in general, it is merely asking for these people. The real problem is the various other governments who, like the UK government, seem to bend to the will of the US with out a squeak. What I don't understand is that the first job of a government has to be protecting its people. But recently, the reverse seems to be true. Why? Why are we the people suddenly the enemy of government? Why are our governments so happy to sling any one they can in to the weird and unjust legal system? How did that happen? Who the hell elects the US the world policemen and court?
