Why not?"Washington" has for the past forty years or so,betrayed its own people.The people of the United States,who are its legal citizenry,have been betrayed at every turn in the road in favor of political expediency.Politicians are whores only interested in self serving,not public service.Their only constituents are foreign governments and big business.It is unrealistic to even consider they would care one whit what happened to someone else unless it contributed in some way to their own agenda.Signed "Link 1"
