For me, though, it's free speech all the way.

It is their country after all.

I've noticed that when other countries criticize what goes on in the US the classic American reaction is to "Mind your own business". When the US criticizes what goes on in other countries that's ok, at least from the American point of view. It does get especially confusing to the rest of the world when the US screams about beheading in Afghanistan but is mum about it in Saudi Arabia.
