Maybe they think they will find from him the key to Wikileaks, so that they switch it off...

That's the freedom of association the West likes yapping about all the time?.....The good thing is,Assange's arrest will not prevent further leaks.

especially if i am stronger. you will not have much choice anyway

this is acting stupid. do they think sexual allegations and denial of bail will stop the leaks? ha ha aha

Interesting stuff......Wikileaks has clear pictures of the 33 T-72 tanks crossing into Southern Sudan......wameanza.

That is strange. There were just over 500 mirror sites yesterday. Now they are 1000!

CIA is definitely not liking this.

I think we all just like Gossip

Wikileaks is doing nothing but spreading state secrets. of cause i wouldnt mind one or two juicy gossips on what Obama told Palin or if the tanks crossed the borders.

But when you start posting everything including state secrets and stuff that can bring Banks and inter govt relations down.. You are stepping TOO FAR

Who hear would be amused if everything they said in the comfort of their houses were broadcast to the whole neighbourhood..
the neighbour you hate, what you think of their spouses..ile matusi munatupiana na bibi.. etc etc

I think not.

This is not personal information, like what presidents say at home.

You need to check out 'Collateral Murder' a leaked video of an American shooting spree in Baghdad that Pentagon tried to cover up. Or the Afghanistan War Logs to see the extent of corruption in 'the war on terror' and many others.

They would have nothing to be hide if practised what they preach. People should be angry at the US government for what it has been doing, not at Wikileaks for just showing us what the Americans have been doing.

Hmmm. Mr. Poundfoolish, but the entire wikileaks site is not more than 2 Gib. Accordin to mass mirroring wikileaks

Thats why its easy to mirror them and difficult to shut down. But they pack info and punch. Ask Hillary Clinton.

'Alleged' 5 Gib of data apparently can do this damage to bank of america

That is enough to rattle the big shareholders and maybe threaten the fledgling economy of the worlds superpower, hence his being called a 'terrorist' who should be executed for threatening 'national security'.

I think wikileaks will influence change in a few things somewhere. Julian Assange may be going, but the grass roots internet rebellion he started is not going anywhere any time soon. That may be what is a little scary.

I'm loving it...now mastercard is under ddoss attacks.

Sorry poundfoolish. a lot of criminal and illegal things have been done in the name of democracy for too long. It's like animal farm all over again.

wikileaks is now bigger than the mindnumbing facebooks and twitter. At last a site that allows you to think and question rather than blindly poke friends.
