Reason Assange leak Secrets


Wednesday, December 8, 2010 johnbatchelorshow.comJulian Assange is the spokesman and Chief Editor of Wikileaks, a website that put confidential documentsFounder WikiLeaks, Julian Assange, to defend the related issuance of secret U.S. documents in an editorial in The Australian newspaper that published online on Wednesday (08/12/2010) morning.
Assange writes, WikiLeaks is running an important mission, namely, "Publicize the facts that need to be publicly known without fear. Democratic societies require strong media and WikiLeaks is part of the media," he wrote, as quoted by CNN. "The media helps in maintaining the government to (stay) honest. WikiLeaks has stripped some of the truth about the war in Iraq and Afghanistan as well as dismantle the story of corporate corruption."
Assange, Australians, argues, "WikiLeaks deserve protection, not threats and attacks and harsh criticism from the Australian Government." We're underdogs, "he wrote." The government of (Prime Minister Julia) Gillard is trying to shoot the messenger because they do not want the truth was revealed, including information about the problems of diplomatic and political deals. Is there any response from the Australian Government relating a number of open threats against me and other WikiLeaks personnel? One might think, a prime minister of Australia will defend one of its citizens against such things. There is only claims important not entirely unfounded. "
Assange accused of sexual violence and coercion against the law in Sweden. He is now in prison in London, England, pending the court's decision on extradition to the Scandinavian nation. He was arrested after surrendering to the police station in London.
Assange said the terms of leaking documents about the war in Afghanistan and Iraq are not included against all kinds of war. "People said I was anti-war. Please note, I do not (anti-war)," he said. "Sometimes, nations need to go to war and there are just wars. However, nothing worse than a government that lied to its people about the wars themselves, then ask the same people to put their lives and their tax it lies in the circuit. if a war is justified, then tell the truth and biarakan people decide whether to support it. "
WikiLeaks was blaming the chief editor of Australian politicians who joined the U.S. State Department when it states that leaked document was life threatening, endangering the lives of the troops and national security, and at the same time saying that "nothing significant" in the publication that WikiLeaks. "It can not be both," he said. "WikiLeaks has a history of publishing for four years. During that time, we have changed all governments, but nobody, as far as aware, have been harmed. However, the U.S., with the involvement of Australia, has killed thousands of people just in the last few months."
Assange said a leaked document has been published by WikiLeaks at least four major publications media world: The New York Times (USA), El Pais (Spain), The Guardian (UK), and Der Spiegel (Germany). But he wondered why only his organization, WikiLeaks, which face the most vicious attacks and accusations from the U.S. Government and its allies.
