Quote from MarketMasher:
That's treason.
What's treason? Unless you have actually taken an oath of allegiance to a country/government, you don't owe it shit. In fact, most governments in the world *deserve* to be betrayed, because they are criminal and immoral institutions that kill innocents and extort and lie to their citizens.
Treason is simply a legal device that power dresses up to exert more control. Governments have legitimacy solely from being the 'least bad' option. They suck, but not as bad as a dictator or pure anarchy. Thus they have no moral high ground to stand on, they are just 'useful'. You don't owe them a damn thing.

School kids are force to take allegiance to bad governments & dictatorial regimes the world over. Do these kids owe their bad governments sh*t for the rest of their life?
Does mean born in a country automatically makes one owe it allegiance?
I have been reading the leaks every day. And they are pointless. I have not learned anything new from them. I already knew the US is the world empire. But come on, give us some dirt, or shut up.
This extradition process for questioning of an alleged crime is really interesting.
In theory any Afghan or Pakistani citizen who has been assaulted or harmed by our military forces or contractors can file a complaint with their local police department and begin the extradition process... not that we would comply but without a formal declaration of war seems they would appear to have a reasonable basis to pursue criminal charges against our citizens and military leaders.
All I know is we are murdering foreigners in their home country under a blanket label of insurgency without due process or any reasonable justification.
Taking preventive action should be limited to domestic actions... once we cross borders into their country on a witch hunt we are the terrorists. So what have we accomplished in 10 years besides killing a lot of Brown skinned Muslims? Secure Oil? Hash? Opium? Keep the Chinese from mining Lithium?
We have lost our good will with the World... We are bankrupt and soon our currency will not be accepted for trade.

Wikileaks suspect Bradley Manning's health 'declining'

The 23-year-old was arrested earlier this year and charged with stealing secret information. One accusation is that he handed Wikileaks video of an Apache helicopter killing 12 civilians in Baghdad in 2007.

Many US corporations have the protective influence of the US military when operating overseas. Policy can even be influenced by these corporations. These companies owe the US big-time. Many skirt taxes through offshore shelters already. Multinational corps want to be supra-structures above nations, sucking resources while returning little to nothing, and answerable to no one.
