So that's what Assange has been doing inside the embassy! WikiLeaks releases 1.7m US diplomatic and

will be along shortly to tell us that the Ecuadorians want Assange to leave because he raids the fridge and leaves the toilet seat up.

- Sexist!

Women are more than capable of doing that for themselves and don't need a man's assistance.

As opposed to just doing it because it's the right thing to do. At least that's how my mother taught me and she was definitely one exceptional women.

- Thank you for your eisegesis.

The Three Amigos, they're here, just scroll down starting with #17.

Stumbling over themselves to try and see who can discredit Wikileaks in the most asinine way.
They can't make up their minds if Wikileaks is a dangerous organization revealing information that is just too sensitive for the fragile eyes of the public and best left to the authorities, or if they are laughable and their releases are redundant and useless.

"The collection published today has not been leaked, but Mr Assange said WikiLeaks had been working for the past year to analyse and assess a vast amount of data held at the U.S. national archives before releasing it in a searchable form.

Mr Assange said WikiLeaks had developed sophisticated technical systems to deal with ‘complex and voluminous’ data.

Top secret documents were not available, while some others were lost or irreversibly corrupted for periods including December 1975 and March and June 1976, said Mr Assange"


Wikidatacondensing just doesn't have the same ring to it.

rofl: :

Gotta make sure the criminals are all good and dead before they see justice.

the family of sources of which some could very well still be alive and if they end up murdered because of wikileaks leaking that info about them wouldnt that make Assage an accessory to murder?

Wikileaks provides Americans a service their government should have done in the first place.

Or Pirateization.



I hate it when you invent a new word, and spell check wants to tell you how to spell it.

Now they'll have to delay the invasion of Iran, and do Ecuador instead.

Wikileaks has published more than 1.7 million US diplomatic and intelligence reports from the 1970s.

The website's founder, Julian Assange, said the documents revealed the "vast range and scope" of US activity around the world.

The collection covers the period when Henry Kissinger was US Secretary of State and National Security Adviser.

The latest collection, entitled the Public Library of US Diplomacy (PlusD), comprises diplomatic cables, intelligence reports and congressional correspondence running from the beginning of 1973 to the end of 1976.

WikiLeaks Goes Google, Develops Searchable Database For Millions Of ‘Kissinger Cables’

1.7 million documents is not whistleblowing. It's just dumping.

and that's how Wikileaks got them

They probably hire summer interns - you may be a good candidate.

and I expect that will be one reason they're pleased to use his consulting services. Personal accusations, of the sort you make, are simply distasteful

If the use of declassified documents, to illuminate history, is a topic that interests you, you may wish to familiarize yourself the website of the long-established National Security Archive, a nonprofit group that obtains documents shedding important light on specific events, such as the overthrow of Allende



There's a difference between the hard work of a group such as the National Security Archive, which actually provides information and insight, and the random mass dumping Assange practices, which seems primarily motivated by Assange's need for attention

been reading their materials for a couple decades, and find that like any single source, it needs to be supplemented.

I did a thesis in the '90s on the influence of American foreign policy on the Chilean political process and economy -- I even spent some time in these same Archives, so I'm aware of many of these facts. Many were revealed long ago, but only now are some previously classified primary U.S. sources coming out, and more importantly reaching a wider audience. So, yes, a lot of what Wikileaks reveals is old and familiar news to some, but we can now see confirmed in undeniable form what the rest of the world, particularly the Chileans, already knew all too well. You don't seem to know enough about the subject to understand how much historical value these documents really have.

Wiki isn't just about Assange, it's about how lies poison nations, but some will try to salvage what's left of the truth. Silencing one man won't reverse either process.

That un-transparent, Julian-abusing government of the U.S.? That one?

E for effort

declassified US documents, that St Julian downloaded legally and easily from a public US government archive site then "released" just so he could grab headlines and rake in cash as a great transparency campaigner

Obtained by neither Wikileaks, nor Anonymous.

And it's quite wonderful that the one does not deny the other, and even more wonderful that we may hopefully enjoy the fruits of all their labors.
