I can hardly imagine that there can be any meaningful Linux Kernel related - or other technical - comment to such such a story. You posted the story.
Citizenship is an inherently political issue. And in an international forum, the politics will be of an international nature, of course :-)

Citizen Linus Posted Sep 14, 2010 22:42 UTC (Tue) by corbet (editor, #1) [Link] In fact, I debated posting the story for a fair while before deciding that it would be of interest. And it has clearly been of interest. That said, I still don't think that means I necessarily set us up for an extended discussion on the merits of various national governments, death penalty rates, etc. Such things happen, and I let it run for a fair while before I said anything; now I'm simply suggesting that we've done enough.Are you disagreeing with that?

Not too much respected Corbet :-) A little politics once in a while never hurt, even in a nominally technical forum.
