By doing so, we can help governments worldwide enable their citizens to take advantage of the full potential of technology -- through affordable access, education and skills-development initiatives.

So whomsoever the LORD our God shall drive out from before us, them will we possess.

en Our actions were lawful, however, we were repeatedly denied the chance to explain why. We were not allowed to mention Article VI, paragraph four of the Constitution, which says that the treaties of the United States are the supreme law of the land. We were not allowed to explain our actions in the context of the Nuremberg Principles, which declare that citizens can be held responsible for crimes of their government.
