WikiLeaks!

I just want to say how proud I am of WikiLeaks. The best part is that some idiot in the US suggested that they be added to the list of terrorist groups. That itself should tell you a lot about how important this leak is.

And putting lives at risk? Um, the only lives at risk are those of people who are engaged in the most reprehensible actions imaginable. What you choose to do for a living matters. If you live by the sword you are very likely to die by the sword.

I want to make this clear: from my perspective any action that challenges the powerful and exposes their secrets and lies is justifiable. The last thing these powerful institutions want you to know is all the dodgy, deceitful and violent things they do in the world. Anything that exposes the truth is so important.

And the fact that the people behind Wikileaks are still alive and able to avoid the full might of the CIA and probably every other state intelligent agency is incredible. They are very special people to be able to avoid all the might of each state pursuing them and to hide the files all this time? I know that the founder is supposedly a rapist or something and true as that might be (and one wonders about the motivation behind the charges), it doesn't take away the fact that this once he and his team are heroes to the truth.

It's funny that all the states are lining up to support the US and one another after this leak. Iran is dismissing them? China has banned all reporting of the story? Surely these governments of all would make hay from secret US files? All these states are in it together. All they want is control and if one state and its secrets are shamed then they all are shamed because they each do the same thing. Pretty pathetic to watch the rats scrambling over one another.

Sorry for the rant but go WikiLeaks!
