I was expecting some negative US sentiment from those outside the US just because of the anti US sentiment that happens occasionally when it can be perceived that we are playing world police.


But am I surprised to read the glowing praise for the US Justice system and the FBI. The articles and comments I have been reading are universally praising the US for these moves. A lot of people are more upset that the countries that care the most about football neglected this to the point the US has to step in. But they are mostly grateful. For some reason I am shocked by these sentiments.

All of the people I've talked to today agree that, in this case, the ends justify the means.
