Wikileaks Thread

  1. Which is perhaps why the leaks were allowed to reach the public in the first place! This really could have been their plan all along.

    Step 1) Allow some relatively minor 'secret' government documents to be leaked on the net. The total volume of materials deliberately allowed to be leaked is massive, but the true impact of their contents is minimal.

    Step 2) Aggressively seize control of the net in the name of 'security', crushing the people's one last bastion of freedom.

  2. ...My thoughts exactly.

    It is 100% clear to me that even if this situation was not initiated as a false flag operation, it is being and WILL BE used to do just as Rearden has suggested.

    The internet truth seekers have let too many Jeanies out of the bottle and exposed to many propaganda/myths for the Government to allow this to continue. No power structure can survive the repeated deflation of its cultural myths.

  3. Wishing the United States to return to to constitutionally limited government including a non-interventionist America-first foreign policy is certainly not a desire for Anarchy.

    Exposing the corruption and the back-room, self-interested dealings of the current elite is not a desire for Anarchy.

    The well worn Ben Franklin quote:

    “Anyone who trades liberty for security deserves neither liberty nor security”

    Some of us want, "America the land of the free" not, "America the land of the 100% secure (if obedient) under a police state".

  4. 'Security', 'Safety', and 'Protection' are three of the most scary words to me in the entire English language.

  5. I agree, and it's already happening. Just needed a little more "urgency". Aside from that, it will be one more needed push for yet an even greater police state:

    PAPER: Wave goodbye to Internet freedom...

  6. Glorify poverty with religion. Tell them "Blessed are the poor"


    This makes them grateful for slavery job, working day and night with no security for themselves or their families.

    "For theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven". They won't find out until it is too late.

    Also just a reminder, only 837 documents out of 251,287 have been released so far by Wikileaks. That is about 0.3 %.....

  8. At the centre of a tightening web of death threats, sex-crime accusations and high-level demands for a treason trial, WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange threatened to unleash a “thermonuclear device” of completely unexpurgated government files if he is forced to appear before authorities.

    basically Assange has only released total garbage so far

  9. "...The 1.3-gigabyte file, distributed through file-sharing services this summer and protected with an unbreakable 256-bit encryption key, contains full versions of all the U.S. documents received by WikiLeaks to date – including those that have been withheld from publication or have had names and details removed in order to protect the lives of spies, sources and soldiers....

    ...Mr. Assange’s lawyer Mark Stephens warned that if Mr. Assange were to be brought to trial on rape accusations he faces in Sweden, or for treason charges that have been suggested by U.S. politicians, he would release the encryption key. The tens of thousands of people who have downloaded the file would instantly have access to the names, addresses and details contained in the file..."

    the russians and the chinese are working day and night to crack the code. what do they mean by "unbreakable"?

  10. I think the only difference between traditional media and wikileaks is lobbying.
