I wonder, had the white Australian whistleblower actually been called something like Abdul Qader Al Raes from Saudi Arabia, whether his release of sensitive information about the USA and UK would have received so much sympathy here...

I couldn't give a monkey's really.  If the countries in question wanted to keep these secret they should have worked harder to keep them secret.  I am waiting for the revelations about UFO's and aliens: :)[^]
