its amazing that everyone thinks its crazy that a country would protect its own trillion dollar industry. right, wrong, moral, hypocritical etc etc... is irrelevant. every country does the same. granted, this seems to be quite a reach in terms of the law and violates WTO agreements but the stakes are also extremely high and from a purely economic perspective, worth the fight and fallout. if any country was bringing in and/or generating triillons of dollars from one industryand suddenly, it was threatened,.... just like any other country, they would fight to protect it... and as they did so, no one on the outside would think or agree that its fair. thats life. puppies die. little girls get cancer and the US Government tries to protect its own gaming industry.
