Apple didn't put SD card slots in iOS devices because of Apple's seeming desire to become the primary distributor of content consumed by Apple users.
Gov't security was not the reason Apple left off the SD slot. At least, until there's some evidence to back that up, I'm extremely confident that gov't security wasn't the reason.
