Re: "Whistleblowers deserve praise and protection" and "Staggering ignorance in this day and age", Letters, July 17.
Charles Frederickson wrote a highly commendable letter concerning Edward Snowden and other brave Americans, but did not broach one of the most menacing topics: secret court orders.
I would ask every American to look in a mirror and say “secret court orders” nine times and then consider the Hitler image on the billboard mentioned by Banjapat La-Orkhun.
Perhaps Chulalongkorn University students simply painted their perceived image of the West in general, led by the US, and maybe Adolf is still around.
Everything about Nazis nauseates me, and NSA sounds too much like SS.
