======= WIKILEAKS REVEALS TRUTH =======
"The reaction to WikiLeaks and its founder, Julian Assange tells us all we
need to know about the total corruption of our ?modern? world, which in
fact is a throwback to the Dark Ages.
Some member of the United States government released to WikiLeaks the
documents that are now controversial. The documents are controversial,
because they are official US documents and show all too clearly that the
US government is a duplicitous entity whose raison d?etre is to control
every other government.
The media, not merely in the US but also throughout the English speaking
world and Europe, has shown its hostility to WikiLeaks. The reason is
obvious. WikiLeaks reveals truth, while the media covers up for the US
government and its puppet states."
The US government has got away with telling lies for so long that it no
longer hesitates to lie...

Maybe things like this frighten & anger the warmongers more than anything
else:
SICKENING, BLATANT WAR CRIMES ON VIDEO!! WHY ARE NO CHARGES PENDING???!!!
Actual U.S. Military video footage of an unprovoked U.S. Apache helicopter
attack in Iraq that killed several civilians, including two employees of
the Reuters, plus an unprovoked rocket attack on a multi-story building in
Iraq (see "full version") that killed many unarmed/innocent Iraqi people
and passersby. (Wikileaks released this video in April 2010)

WikiLeaks will soon post the classified film of the bombing of Granai
village in Afghanistan, May 2009 that killed ~140 civilians, including ~92
children, when the US Military dropped 500lb and 1,000lb bombs on them.
(from a September post 2010 - Perhaps this video is being saved in
Wikileak's huge, encrypted insurance package)

Some things you must always be unable to bear. Some things you must
never stop refusing to bear. Injustice and outrage and dishonor and
shame. No matter how young you are or how old you have got. Not for
kudos and not for cash, your picture in the paper nor money in the
bank, neither. Just refuse to bear them.
William Faulkner

"It is impossible to correct abuses unless we know that they're going
on... if we are to produce a more civilized society, a more just society,
it has to be based upon the truth. Because judgements which are not based
upon the truth can only lead to outcomes which are themselves false...
?Secrecy is important for many things? [but it] shouldn?t be used to cover
up abuses.?
Julian Assange

The USA is seen by many political observers around the world as something
like a spoiled rotten teenage bully on steroids and as the #1 obstacle to
world peace, that must be stopped.

The UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, Navi Pillay, expressed concern
"I am concerned about reports of pressure exerted on private companies
including banks, credit card companies and Internet service providers to
close down credit lines for donations to Wikileaks, as well as to stop
hosting the website.""This can be interpreted as at attempt to censor the
publication of information, and potentially constitutes a violation of
WikiLeaks' right to freedom of expression,"
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
The UN rapporteur for freedom of opinion and expression, Frank La Rue,
said in an interview with ABC.net.au that he did not think the US
government had grounds to charge Julian Assange or request his
extradition. "If there is a responsibility by leaking information it is
of, exclusively of the person that made the leak and not of the media that
publish it,"

Brazilian President Inácio Lula da Silva on Thursday expressed solidarity
with Julian Assange, criticising his arrest as a blow against freedom of
expression, reports AFP. "Assange has 'exposed a diplomacy that had
appeared unreachable,' said Lula, who criticised of a failure of other
governments to challenge Assange's detention. 'They have arrested him and
I don't hear so much as a single protest for freedom of expression,' he
said."

Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin said, also on Thursday, that the
arrest of WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange showed the West was
hypocritical in its criticism of Russia's record on democracy, reports
Reuters.

"Until we have the courage to recognize cruelty for what it is--whether
its victim is human or animal--we cannot expect things to be much better
in this world... We cannot have peace among men whose hearts delight in
killing any living creature. By every act that glorifies or even tolerates
such moronic delight in killing we set back the progress of humanity."
Rachel Carson

We think... we can go on in the old ways... more competition, more
greed... It is not so any longer; it does not work. If two-thirds of
the world?s population are living in poverty then the economic system
does not work. If we think that they will go on without asking that
itwork for them, then we are sorely out of step with reality. Maitreya
will make that clear." Benjamin Creme

Those who want to lead people must learn to embrace & share the truth, and
never to fear it. We are fast approaching a time when all those who obtain
leadership positions will indeed embrace & share the truth. Those who are
afraid of it, who have contempt for it, the people, true democracy &
justice will have no power over others. It will eventually become
impossible for people to hide the truth. The truth will set us free from
all the horrors that result from corrupt leadership. More lies and cover-
ups only create more needless misery. In a single word, it's time for the
human family to become functional. The people are standing up. Corrupt
leaders need to change or get the hell out of our way. The forces
characterized by unbridled greed and deception have failed miserably.
They are slowing grasping the fact that the solutions that worked for them
in the past are no longer working.They are finished.

"There has to be an in-depth, sober, objective process of taking stock of
the root causes of global terrorism and developing an appropriate response
to it. Without justifying the current terrorist attack on the US, we can
ask the following questions. Is the US reaping the terrorist policies it
has sowed? Why the intense hatred for the US? Will the ordinary US citizen
awaken to the global impacts that US government policies are having,
policies that are crafted by a few in power? Are US economic policies that
one-sidedly glorify competition and profit over equitable human
development, resulting in massive poverty, de facto terrorist policies?"
Nicanor Perlas, President, Center for Alternative Development Initiatives

"Why of course the people don't want war," began Goering. "That is
understood. But after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine
the policy, and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along."
The Nazi leader paused, then continued. "All you have to do is to tell
them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of
patriotism and exposing the country to danger."
Hermann Goering (Nazi leader convicted of war crimes)

"In the counsels of Government, we must guard against the acquisition of
unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the Military
Industrial Complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced
power exists, and will persist. We must never let the weight of this
combination endanger our liberties or democratic processes. We should take
nothing for granted. Only an alert and knowledgeable citizenry can compel
the proper meshing of the huge industrial and military machinery of
defense with our peaceful methods and goals so that security and liberty
may prosper together." - President Eisenhower

"I spent thirty-three years and four months in active service in the

Street and the bankers. In short, I was a racketeer, a gangster for
capitalism.... "During those
