I addressed it, clearly, pointing out that when you refer to us as "the Americans" (at least you capitalized it unlike your comrade N3WBI3 who rarely does) you lost any credibility to speak on behalf of "the Americans", making your attempted contributions to the discussion extremely suspect.
As for your attempted point, what was it anyway? That if legal transfer of technology for free to Cuba and North Korea is allowed, it will actually happen? Duh, I think we've figured that out already, Mr. Red Cloak.

We're usually referred to as "Americans", but let's ignore your pathetic attempt at diving off on a tangent...
The point is (And I'm trying to use small words here so that I won't upset you) that American companies and the US government involved themselves in GPL'd software while understanding the terms of that license. No one forced them to add to the projects. They took pre-existing code for free and the passed along their additions for free; that's how it works. You can do the same thing if you wish or you can choose not to. It's a freedom thing.
How about it, Rubber Chicken? Can you respond to that or will you run off and hide again?
