He still won't be getting out for another 12 or 15 years.
Seriously, if you don't like the laws, don't sign up to do some high level shit. What kind of naive person doesn't think shady shit goes on? We're not the #1 power in the world because we're total sweethearts that always do the right thing. We kick ass, we stab in the back, we undermine people that don't play ball with us.
And for ANY govt employee to "discover" it, and decide to LEAK IT, well, that's just childish, it's breaking the law, and it deserves punishment.
Look at it like the Manhattan project... that probably broke a few local environmental laws, among other things... yet ALL those involved managed to STFU about it. No one 'came forward' with moral qualms, thus giving GER the heads up to attack us first in NYC or LA or wherever.
People need to learn to separate morality... what is right by morals and right for the USA ain't the same thing lol. Grow up kids.
Sorry to burst your bubble 240 (especially since I like you) ...BUT, America is NOT the #1 power in the world.
She used to be, ...but her citizens have yet to realize they are no longer as powerful as they once were.
Right now, she is merely a shell of her former self, ...trying to hang on and keep it together, ...while coming apart at the seams.
What made America a great nation, was not her practices of terrorism or bullying smaller nations. Ya she engaged in that, but that wasn't what made America great. America rose to greatness because America had abundant natural resources, and an abundant supply of slave labour, along with sound money backed by gold. She did not experience the devastation of infrastructure as was experienced by Europe & Asia during WWI & WWII Her factories were intact, she was producing goods & services, and her citizens were both gainfully employed and had a degree of freedom. Opportunity was abundant, and an environment existed that was extremely conducive to growth & an abundant prosperous middle class, with potential for upward mobility afforded to the lower classes.
America rose to power because hers was the world's reserve currency.
Then, like all great empires before her, ...she got greedy & decadent, and decided to abuse the power she held. Her citizens became selfish hedonists, and her politicians corrupt. She became the great whore with whom other corrupt leaders chose to fornicate, ...and now karma is about to pour her a wine glass full of her own abominations.
