Wikileaks Receiving Gestapo Treatment?
An anonymous reader writes "Wikileaks announced on Mar 21 (via its twitter account) its intentions 'to reveal Pentagon murder-coverup at US National Press Club, Apr 5, 9am.' It appears that during the last 24 hours someone from the State Department/CIA decided to visit them, by 'following/photographing/filming/detaining' an editor for 22 hours. Apparently, the offending leak is a video footage of a US airstrike."
There's no such thing as free. SOMEONE is paying for it.
That's correct.
For example, persons in positions of high pay will be taxed and pay more than others will by virtue of their higher salaries. That tax money will, in part, fund health care for the low-paid people who are just entering the work force. This is a good thing; this is the way stewardship of a government-imposed fiat monetization system is supposed to look.
But it's not the way a Republic is suppose to look.
There should be taxes to redistribute wealth acting in opposition to the inherent structural toward concentrating the wealth in the hands of some few.
You mean people that work hard (and don't post on Slashdot all day) should have their money taken away and given to the ones that post on Slashdot all day. Spoken like a true Communist.
So wikileaks, instead of being the high minded, civc-duty organization they want you to think they are, is actually no different than all the publicity whoring, money grubbing new outlets.
Next thing you know they will be blowing up pickups and faking footage of speedometers.
When Fascism comes to America, it will call itself Anti-Fascism, and tell you to give up your guns.
Nice...a moral equivalence between the U.S. and North Korea.

you see, as soon as someone starts as reply with "wrong." i automatically assume them to be a genuine fucking idiot.
Instead of providing evidence to back up your statement you reply as if a 16 year old on a hormonal trip would. As such, Im forced to treat you like the simpleton you really are and explain my post as simply as possible:
Once a classified document is leaked, measures are taken to ensure that the leak does not spread. While secufrity clearances are still enforced, the document itself is treated as being in danger of becomming public knowledge. Measures are then taken to ensure the document isnt leaked.
Until the security of the document can be ensured, it is considered to be classified but insecure. If the document is widle leaked then for all intents and purpolses, it is no longer classified, despite the official classification
But considering you have the intellectual capacity of a 12 year old, I'll leave you with this: go fuck yourself, shit for brains.
