Does the documented truth need to have an agenda?
Isn't that a free press?
Most news worth knowing can only be leaked by standing up to criminals 
within corporations who would not allow such knowledge.

Julian and friends are the first free press source I've seen, and you 
want them to be shut down?
I don't imagine that all soldiers or government officials are so 
uneducated or dumb that they will be happy pulling triggers or pulling 
funding _illegally_ for corrupt or dumb officialdom, without some outlet 
to relieve their guilt and frustrations. You do realise that those in 
such institutions face total persecution, if not death, if they spill 
the beans, or even just refuse to follow those orders?
Yes, even in your country...

The most revealing truth is that it is fine for the US government to 
DDOS Wikileaks, under some guise or other, threaten or call out for the 
death of others under some guise of treason (how can that even apply to 
foreigners, eh?), but illegal for others to do it back to those who 
would join up with the insanity?....

The funniest part of it all, is that Julian's charge is that he 'leaked' 
on, or in, some ladies.
I'll bet that was a chuckle in the CIA boardroom.
