I amn't touching the Assange rape thing... but something about it smells. Especially how the charges were dropped and reinstated, almost like somebody was being pressured by someone else....and what the charge actually is. The 'sex crimes' listing on the Red Notice is oddly vague.
Wikileaks itself.
Well frankly, there're some things that deserve to be leaked. I for one am hoping that all the information surrounding the bank baiilout, and the bank guarantees here over the last 2 years will come out sometime sooner than after the mandatory 30-year period. Hiding dirty laundry behind layers of classification removes government accountability and there's a lot for this government to be held accountable for.
Also consider the ACTA treaty which for the longest time was being negotiated behind closed doors.... when that got leaked and people actually saw what it said, they responded with a 'hell no!'. That was kept specifically secret in order to stifle activism against it.
It's interesting to note, however.... that on evamade.net, those most vehemently opposed to wikileaks are in the US armed forces(or related to), while those most in favour of the site, aren't American.
