I am pretty sure many people have read or heard about this today.
Just want to share to people who have not realize this.
A brief summary of this is about 250000 highly confidential US diplomatic documents have been leaked out. I think this is related to our security topic.

I'm glad WikiLeaks exists. They bring a new meaning to being an enemy of the world. We usually think of an "enemy of the world" as someone set to destroy the world. In a way WikiLeaks is, but by putting into question the current powers of the world and calling them off the stage. When you realize that trying to reveal TRUTH makes you an enemy of the "world"... it's pretty damn frightening. No one ever gets killed for telling a lie, they get killed for knowing the truth.
ReplyDeleteFYI WikiLeaks.org just went down about an hour or two ago, terminated by host everydns.net
ReplyDeleteSomething cool in the meantime- pictures of WikiLeaks servers being stored in an underground nuclear bunker in Sweden:

I havn't read in depth about this wikileaks saga, but how credible are these leaks? I wouldn't be surprised if they doctored a couple of these numerous leaks for some stakeholder.
