Comment No protection for those outside US ... (Score 0) 217

(US)-constitutional protection dont apply to foreigners .. sure, that's fine with me ... at least for as long as those foreigners dont enter the US ...
Why ? simply put, USA is a country of immigrants ... whose only right(?) to stay there derives from the slaughtering of this country's native inhabitants (remember Native American's fate .. or that of the Slaves packed in sea-faring bricks)...

Apart from this little glitch, there are plenty of US's overstepping their rights in pretty much every other country in the world :
  • USA has coaxed most of the world's countries into signing a treaty (sorry, dont remember the name, if it has one), barring them from bringing US citizens to Den Haag Tribunal, for whatever they have done (remember CIA's actions in the 1950-1980, and both bushes's actions afterwards ...)
  • USA is consistently using its economic power to stomp on the so-called poor countries around the world (look at South America's economic history ...)
  • When USA fancies something, USA takes ... quite frequently at the expense of the original owner ... look at Iraq's Oil for one of the most recent exemple ... and most of the natural resources of the world, for the biggest one ...
  • USA's pathological need to be seen as the good guy : so many Military operations (that, for a reminder, results firstly in thousands of exploded women, children, and more generally, innocent bystanders) have a name lexically close to free/freedom ...
  • USA's frequent supporting of terrorism and dictatorships : look at the history of the following countries, and especially the role played by the CIA, military aid, or simply US military in those countries : Iran (Shah, 1953-1978) - Indonesia (Suharto, 1965) - Chile (Pinochet, 1973) - Iraq (Saddam Hussein, 1963-1985) - Uzbekhistan (US Army, 1998-2005) ... and the longest commitment, Israel (Palestinians fate, 1950 to present)
There's much more, but I'll stop here, or I might be considered a terrorist... Whose current meaning is : someone who doesnt bless W's actions every morning ... presently includes France's last president, Jacques Chirac, and growing parts of at least both the Middle East and Southern America, who historically have every single reason to be mad at USA's meddling with their internal politics...

Disclaimer : Dear W (or his planned successor), I'm a lone individual, please act reasonably, and don't hurt the 60 million persons who happen to live in the same country as myself ... unlike what the USA consistently did throughout the world, roughly since the fall of the Sino-German empire ...

PS : The United States of America used to be a democracy ... at a time when your Founding Fathers didnt spin in their graves at all !!!
