Because small, weak countries like Maldives will kidnap and send anyone, anywhere if the country asking for the kidnapping victim is wealthy and/or powerful enough. A much more withering indictment could be made against New Zealand for their attempted extradition of Kim Dotcom to the USA.
Exactly. People tend to counter with "well the US did it". That's your countries fault people, I'm sorry, and as a US citizen I work on these things, but please stop blaming us for your weak governments. We have our own corruption problems, and if you think I mean the outsider who just wrecked two political dynasties and our MSM then I politely suggest you figure out who owns your news sources.
