Wikileaks is not some "corporation" which one of its workers did wrong. The main purpose of Wikileaks is to leak classified documents. Assange is the one who put himself into public eye and is in charge of the many actions that took place.

Remember, No Secrets.

That doesn't mean he can be personally blamed. Wikileaks / The Sunshine Press is a legal entity in its self which leaks stuff, not individual people leaking. It is no different to a news paper publishing leaks, and no one has ever suggested the editors of news papers should be arrested or assassinated for doing such things.
-
The public deserves to know the truth!
-
We don't come into a country if it doesn't want us. Usually when the government cannot function under the current circumstances. is when we call ourselves in for the better good.
-
I'm quite sure Iraq didn't want you. Although thats more of an invasion than trying to police the world (even if it is technically a "police action").
-
Cause probally they are all british people thinking they are better.
-
I wouldn't be surprised if he winds up dead sometime in the next few years.
-
I don't think its quite that easy to kill a public figure.
-
Going into Iraq to free the citizens from oppression is policing.
Edited:
He wouldn't be killed in the public eye, he would just disappear and the public would soon forget about him.
-
Who haven't and probably will never be harmed.
-
Putting families in the threat of danger is crossing the line, harmed or not.
-
This is not call of duty, it won't happen.
Edited:
-
The CIA doesn't even assassinate anyone. Leave that to Delta.
-
lol
also itt we assume that assange is the driving force of wikileaks and everything is his fault
-
This.
Edited:
I lol'd.
I can give you a huge list of countries that major powers like US, UK, Russia, etc. have gone into where they weren't wanted. Here's a few:
US: Iraq, Afghanistan, some parts of Africa, Japan, Hawaii (when Hawaii was independent), every Native American country.
UK: India Kingdoms (like the Marathan Empire), Zulu Kingdom, Afghanistan, Australia, New Zealand.
Russia: Afghanistan, Dagestan, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Romania, Poland, Ukraine.
You see, major powers like those three aren't affected by other non-major nations' requests or orders. It's basically like "We've got a shitload of power, you don't. Just try and stop us".
-
The editors of newspapers don't publish the names of anonymous informants, because A) they run legitimate businesses and don't want to go to jail, B) want to cultivate a relationship with the police/military, and C) have a sense of ethics.
-
What do you mean Garry ban him again? Hezzy banned him.
-
I don't really understand this argument about "they didn't have the manpower to censor all of the names in the documents"... If you don't have the ability to censor them properly, don't publish them. No one needs to die, wound or feel threatened because of your laziness and negligence.
-
They did censor them.
Edited:
No garry did.
-
The site is about leaking uncensored documents, did you guys really think they would go against their values?
If they do/did, they are just undermining their integrity and going against the point of the site.
If they don't, they're a bunch of senseless assholes.
Either way they lose.
-
I can't see the importance of the names of Afghani informers.
-
Wasn't it just last week you were all sucking his dick and calling him a great man?
-
Welcome to the U.S Manipulative Media.
-
Amnesty international seems to think otherwise.
-
I support assange. If you condone what they (USA) do, it's your problem.
-
We can make it Assange's problem :smug:
-
If they weren't sure that all the names were deleted then they should have delayed the release. It's like a risk assessment.
-
that's not wikileaks main purpose. they take whatever information they get. people give them information and they publish it. it's not like they go "HEY GIVE US CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS"
Edited:
which is probably illegal.
and we shouldn't be going into other country's businesses, what gives us the right to act as world police?
Edited:
uh no iraq was an invasion are you ignorant.
-
Hey don't forget the Italians they invaded like all of Europe.
Edited:
And northern Africa.
Edited:
And Asia as well. What pricks!
-
Same thing that enables the real police to intervene, threat of force.
-
what the fuck are you doing
-
He's switching sides. :colbert:
-
What's your point?
-
why am I not surprised that gunfurry is in here being a military apologist
"arrest him" etc.
you want him arrested for exposing war crimes? they're REDACTING all the names as previously mentioned. the media is just trying to divert attention from the real reason that people don't want the documents exposed: because they show that the war is a failure and that there have been numerous war crimes that have continually been covered up
(User was banned for this post ("Flaming" - GunFox))
-
Because the American media totally supports the war.
-
because the media is going to make their own country look terrible
-
Between them and you, I'm inclined to believe them.
Edited:
The source in the OP isn't American.
And news is a business. For all its flaws, it's not state-run, and it's not a conspiracy.
-
Why not?
-
Hahaha.
The WHOLE purpose of the delay was to censor the names. What should be newsworthy is the fact that they're going to censor the names. CNN barley mentioned that they were going censored at least.
To deny this fact is absurd. It's known that they are being censored and it was a very expensive operation.
Keep eating what the US media tells you or start thinking for yourself.
