I'm a wikileaks fan... US can't really take Assange out because these electronic records can never really go away. All they can do is try to discredit him... The issues released reveal our Government can not be trusted.
I mean do you think most people want to live in a nation like algeria or the soviet union or any other oppressive regime, where people have to fear for their lives if they tell the truth about what the government is doing? Dunno, I would have to ask and Algerian or a Russian. Political kidnappings and killings instead of freedom of speech? Is that really what you want?? Yeah, when it comes to classified documents and confidential military and diplomatic information. Grab them, imprison them or kill them. You act as if that the information about these operations should be somehow hidden from the people who are paying for it. Can you clarify your position? If 300 million Americans know something it isn't a secret. Secrecy is needed for military and US policy matters. If you keep all your cards visible in a poker game you aren't likely going to win even if you get points for openess and fairness or a Noble Peace Prize lol.
Sky news:- "Washington braced for millions of leaks" A spokesman for the welsh assembly jokingly tweets "this is going to be great for our economy lol!" Irelands prime minister Brian Cowen, asks "could you ask Mr. Obama if he wants to buy some potatoes?"
hell yes. lets add murder of civilians to our list of virtues. that should help our moral standing in the world.
Survival is more important that "moral standing in the world". Stop worrying about having international friends and start worrying about our sovereignty, independence and freedom. It isn't about holding hands and singing kumbaya. The real world is a bit harsher than that. We need to return to the US foreign policies of the 1950s with regard to leakers, south american despots and nuclear wannabes.
Actually I heard it was footage of Dick Cheney riding your mom with his pacemaker turned up to frappe.
oh you mean the same foreign policy that cost 50,000 american lives in korea? got to kill those commies or they will take over the world. survival? wtf. who can even attack us. we still maintain 3 ways to destroy the soviet union. its paranoia by you chicken hawks that keeps getting us into needless wars and squandering our treasure.
I think Obama already has. Someone posted a link recently where Obama layers are defending the administrations right to murder US citizen, without review or due process, if Dumbo considers them terrorists. Didn't you support and vote for this guy?
