Summary: 


-
The people of <nation> might want to know some embarrassing
activities of its secret service via the Press, which is
also availlable to <nation>'s enemies.  Is it, therefore, in
<nation>'s interests to reveal all?

I know you readers in th'USA will have had much arguement
on the Freedom of Information issue.

Personally, I would say that USA's laws on it would come under
the 'patently stupid' entry.



My point is that:
         <Nation>'s interests do not necessarily equate with
		its people's interests.


Having said that, I don't want US cruise missiles on British soil.
