Well, I don't disagree that America holds double standards (hell, we support Israel, right? We take a weak line with the Saudis, etc....) but part of the trouble with all this crap is what is deemed "classified" information. It could be toilet schematics, or nucklear formulas, for instance.
Yeah, in general, this is one of the things that bothers me. And, like, being anti-choice (or pro-life), yet supporting the death penalty and the killing of innocents while at "War" with, as far as I can tell, a word/idea. I think people just plain don't make sense sometimes... or, I guess, maybe are just complicated. Eh. It's a wide world, for being a small one, or whatever. Yeah...
