crimes.

I will support the governments privacy concerns when I can also legally
encode my own communications in which is next to impossible to listen in
on. I do not buy the argument "For the protection of its citizens". 9/11
communication interceptions never helped it's citizens.

As for the soldier, he did break the law in which he was hired for and
deserves his prison time. However, he should be treated humanely, what
ever that is. Is he a martyr, perhaps, the jury is still out.

I think it may be a crime to support illegal government activity.
Soldiers have a legal and moral right to blow a whistle.

Do you support illegal government activity, Don? Do you support murder
and torture of people SUSPECTED to be criminals?

What would you do, if Pakistan killed 10 members of your family, to kill
one nationalist, excuse me, I mean militant? The money for the 9/11
killers did come from Pakistan after all.
