Antigua Government Set to Launch “Pirate” Website ...
Does anyone know why the US govt is so vigorously against Internet gambling? Is it propping up some other illegal activity?

They can't tax it in either direction, the operators, being out of jurisdiction, are not liable for taxes, and the winnings that should count as income do not get reported anywhere.

But it's not allowed in the USA either where none of those problems would exist.
