Freedom of speech & Western hypocrisy.

Perhaps chachi Clinton could explain why her fancy speech about internet/press freedom does not apply to Wikileaks.

“When ideas are blocked, information deleted, conversations stifled, and people constrained in their choices, the internet is diminished for all of us. The United States wants the internet to remain a space where economic, political, and social exchanges flourish. To do that, we need to protect people who exercise their rights online.”

Lol and then there’s Bradley Manning facing capital punishment. If he and Julian Assange violated the Espionage Act, so did the New York Times, The Guardian, and 3 other major newspapers from around the world. The obtained, distributed and communicated classified documents. So do the newspapers’ owners/editors/journalists etc deserve the death penalty or lengthy jail sentences too?

What a ridiculous comment and this coming from a “Director”.

Bradley Manning stole US Diplomatic communications and Julian Assange published them on the Internet.

Those Newspapers acted as medians in publishing distilled Cables just like YouTube is being used to show the Muhammed Film.

Get your analogies correct.

Its like some hacker hacking into ISI and stealing its secrets and publishing them on the Internet.
