As an example, I got permission, before the [three] Bali bombers [who carried out a set of simultaneous attacks in 2002] were executed, to interview them. They were going to be shot because they blew up 200 people. I couldn’t get human subjects approval because “you have to bring a lawyer, and besides we won't allow anyone to interview prisoners.” I said why? “You can never be sure you're not violating their right to speech.”
Then you have crazy things [required by US funding bodies] like host country authorization. Suppose you want to do work in Israel and Palestine. So you go to the Israelis, say, “We want to do studies, just like we do in American universities,” and say, “We need host country authorization from some government.” They say, “Are you crazy?” And in many countries that are in chaos, who’s going to give you permission?


Here: for the people who dont know where these bombers he is talking about right there were locked up: because if you think the West got them and refused him access YOU ARE WRONG.


These men were locked down by the Indonesian government a 75% Muslim run affair.




Makes you rethink why they didnt want a westerner in their jails asking their people how it eventuated.


They just executed drug traffickers last week in the same place.



Now go search where the guy who organized the explosives is now; He is free


Two laws .
