My point was that yes, Oerdin is correct - insofar as China and Iran are making rather spurious cases for their actions based on some abstract foreign justification. My post about America's own examples was meant to show that most nations do this too, including my own nation - not just "repressive" nations (and no, I do not consider America to be a repressive nation). I've stated this point more than once in this thread, but it doesn't appear to be doing much good. Not that that surprises me anymore.

Did you have some kind of recent example of America defending domestic policy with claims that dissent against it was a "foreign plot"?
