[DC] Wonder Woman is (almost?) equal to Superman, yet she has no discernible weaknesses. So why isn't the US government more terrified of her?

The US government has developed several countermeasures against Superman; kryptonite-laced weapons, red-sun weapons etc. And yet, Wonder Woman is (almost?) as powerful as the Man of Steel, but without any discernible weaknesses. She also has numerous "advantages" over Superman; e.g. magic weaponry/resistance.

So why isn't the US government (or any government) more terrified of HER?

WW is, in a way, easier for them to understand, and in turn easier for them to get comfortable with. She's the ambassador/field agent for a foreign government, which is something that *makes perfect sense* to soldiers and politicians. They know she's got an agenda, that she's got a home base, and a boss. She gets too far off the amazon agenda they'll reel her back in, and if she starts shit they know who to gripe at. For politicians and soldiers, this makes perfect sense. It fits into their world view.

Superman does things for one reason and one reason only; *because he wants to*. The idea that some dude is just going to up and make himself mankind's best buddy is odd, and the awareness that the only thing stopping him is his own will is terrifying. He doesn't mesh with the worldview of people who have a chain of command, a flag, and someone who'll wreck their shit if they do something out of line. Kal El gets tired of the game and starts shit, there's no homeland for you to bomb or hotline for you to call, it's just you and the Man of Steel in a metaphorical steel cage. And since the in-universe U.S. lacks out of universe knowledge of how solid a guy Superman is, they need to make their plans on the worst case scenario. And that means harvesting kryptonite, weaponizing red sun energy, and cutting Lexcorp a billion dollar check for defense just in case the Big Boy Scout decides to skullfuck the President *because he wants to*.
