    Re: Julian Assange: Why the world needs WikiLeaks

    Hello Gordon

    With so many broken links in the above, one has to ask who is behind the cover up?

    The truth will break through eventually, but by that time, a few will have made BIG monies.

    Far, far too many laws nowadays, we only require to original 10, to be implemented.

    WikiLeaks on the Pakistani double game, Afghanistan, US death squads, drones + local civilian losses

    (composite video) The revelations by... WikiLeaks emerged as Admiral Mike Mullen, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, warned of greater NATO casualties in Afghanistan as violence mounts over the summer.

    It also came as the Taliban said they were holding captive one of two U.S. servicemen who strayed into insurgent territory, and that the other had been killed. The reported capture will further erode domestic support for America's 9-year-old war.

    Contained in more than 90,000 classified documents, the Wikileaks revelations could fuel growing doubts in Congress about U.S. President Barack Obama's war strategy at a time when the U.S. death toll is soaring.....

    Pakistan was actively collaborating with the Taliban in Afghanistan while accepting U.S. aid, new U.S. military reports showed, a disclosure likely to increase the pressure on Washington's embattled ally..... http://www.reuters.com/article/idUSTR...

    The US military has launched an inquiry to find the source of tens of thousands of classified American documents on the war in Afghanistan that were leaked to the media (they're from the US military, duh!) ..... http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/world...

    Wikileaks reveals Afghan civilian deaths - Thousands of secret military documents have been leaked, revealing details of incidents when civilians were killed by coalition troops in Afghanistan.


    The cache contains more than 90,000 US records giving a blow-by-blow account of fighting between January 2004 and December 2009..... http://www.independent.co.uk/news/wor...

    Founded by secretive Australian Julian Assange, Wikileaks was originally based in Sweden and garnered 1.2 million leaked documents in time for its launch in January 2007. It taps in to the world's web users' desire either for justice or revenge on former employers or acquaintances, but its most significant stories have been held up as largely in the public interest..... http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/79103...

    His government was one of the few in the 30 years following independence that was not run by the army..... http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia...

    started a topic Julian Assange: Why the world needs WikiLeaks

    Julian Assange: Why the world needs WikiLeaks

    Julian Assange: Why the world needs WikiLeaks

    I could not quite decide wether to place this in "Politics" or "Armed forces", but as the subject matter revolves in many cases about the forces on the ground interwoven with political affairs I finally decide to place it here although the subject matter is wide ranging and covers many current issues.

    The controversial website WikiLeaks collects and posts highly classified documents and videos. Founder Julian Assange, who is reportedly being sought for questioning by US authorities, talks to TED's Chris Anderson about how the site operates, what it has accomplished and what drives him.
