Going along with assumption A is obstinate and we live in a world where the U.S. Not only assumes B is false, but add assumption C "anyone who isn't an employee/officer of a U.S. Intelligence department / service, is a potential terrorist, and even then we should be careful in case of moles and home grown radicals" Pretending we're discussing something reasonable here is incredible foolish and worst of all, the United States continues to drag the rest of the world into their paranoid power trip. To paraphrase a famous poem, "First they came for anything that wasn't a corn farm..." And shits been skidding downhill ever since.
