WikiLeaks Under Denial of Service Attack
wiredmikey writes "WikiLeaks has reported that its Web site is currently under a mass distributed denial of service attack. The attack comes around the time of an expected release of classified State Department documents, which the Obama administration says will put 'countless' lives at risk, threaten global counterterrorism operations and jeopardize US relations with its allies."

My webcomic
Anonymous Coward should be EXECUTED by torture and subsequent beheading for recommending execution by torture and subsequent beheading. This kind of speech has no place in a free nation and must be dealt with in the harshest of terms.
Because if terrorists can destroy the peacekeeping efforts of the US in the middle east and destabilize the region, it means more terrorists again, except this time there would be a lot of them that know what they are doing and how to do it. That means danger for all countries.
