    I find this quote the most interesting and relevant concerning what the Wikileaks is about.


    Here is a Assange's recent interview.

  4. Ron Paul stands up for Julian Assange

    Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas) is taking a stand as one of Julian Assange’s few defenders in Washington, arguing that the WikiLeaks founder should get the same protections as the media.

    “In a free society we're supposed to know the truth,” Paul said. “In a society where truth becomes treason, then we're in big trouble. And now, people who are revealing the truth are getting into trouble for it.

    I donated a few weeks ago.

    "We open governments"
    I can't fathom why anyone would be against that?

  7. There are 3 or 4 different ways to pay. All are simple.

    I gave a few weeks back.

    If I see Assange in handcuffs, I'm gonna give much bigger, and call/email everyone I know.

    You are a fool. I knew you weren't intelligent but you are really showing your ass now. I'm putting you on permanent ignore.

    Anarchists like you need to be pushed up against a wall and shot.
