oh, so you broke British law, they wish to arrest you for breaking British law
and you are upset that the US won't give a visa to a known criminal?

How dastardly.

There is an arrest warrant for me in the UK for publishing this book. As a
result, the USA will not give me a visa, since they depend on UK to back
them up when they invade other countries, and so do them favours in return
like making life difficult for me.

I didn't say I was upset. I actually find it rather amusing that the US and
UK are so annoyed about my book. And even more satisfying when uptight
people like you brand me a criminal!

But by your logic, all the american women who take their bikini tops off
(oooh how naughty) and sip beer (gasp!) on Pampelonne beach in St Tropez
should automatically be arrested by the French police, as that is against
Amerikan law.

breaking the Official Secrets Act in Britain is considered a very serious
offense.

Not hardly the same catagory as a bare tit here.

You did the crime, dude. And you knew it. Yo expect the world to applaud you?

Actually, it is not particularly serious as the max sentence is only 2
years. In any case, the rest of the world considers it a bit of a joke.

Actually the max sentence in USA for "indecency" is slightly longer than 2
years in some states, so you're wrong.

Ric,

You covert American Rights but knock our values.

I wonder how the operative in M16 feel about your views?

I can't remember a time when I've agreed with JAX but on this I stand
Shoulder to Shoulder with his VIEWS; AND, "I'LL DRINK TO THAT!"

yeah, the guy knowingly and deliberately committed a crime breaking a low the
Brits feel is vital for their national security.

Now, the clown wants us to grant him a visa so he can what? Knowingly and
deliberately commit a crime breaking a law we feel vital for our national
security?

Sure.
