Index on Censorship has obtained copies of correspondence between whistleblowing website Wikileaks and the US embassy in the United Kingdom, which took place between Friday and Sunday. They reveal Wikileaks editor in chief’s last-minute attempt to seek the cooperation of the United States government in redacting information from the latest controversial release of documents.
Mark Stephens of Finers Stephens Innocent, who represents Julian Assange in the UK, is a trustee of Index of Censorship.

It has always been known that America has commited warcrimes in Iraq and It’s obvious that American Foreign Policy is arrogant. The Leaks reveal nothing, they just provide evidence to support things are already known.
The leaks are being used to get legislation put through congress to allow america to have greater control over the internet.
These leaks are just pushing america closer to a Chinese style censorship

Scott US of A:
In the name of “Democracy” America is forcing Israel to adopt policies that are harmful to our government and society. The WikiLeaks cables have shown the public what many researchers and “insiders” have been saying for a long time – America is a duplicitous friend (i.e. not a friend at all).
“Democracy” is supposed to rely on transparency and openness, with “The People” in possession of the full facts.
So what, exactly, must be kept secret. And why must it be kept from “The People”?
Governments that keep the facts away from citizens are not free. “Democracy” is actually just another form of dictatorship.

to all those involved with wikileaks you should be marked for assination by all world leaders!”
You should be on the hit list too for condoning murder! Get some of your own justice. You can go pretend you don’t want the truth but the truth always comes out… didn’t your mother teach you lying is wrong? Well American politicians are breaking laws and disrespecting the ethics us American’s supposedly value and preach to everyone. Because of this kind of gross disgard for ethics and law by people in power in America my children now have to grow up in a different America than I did. One where they need to be searched between their legs to fly on a plane and I’m sure worse as time goes on! Americans should be outraged by this information!!!! This is why people choose to terrorize us. Rediculous! I’m no fool, I know power is hungry and handling it has been the bases of cruelty to humans since the begining. All I ask is that we see an acurrate reflection of our selves in the mirror.
Now its in the open the americans do not believe in democracy, but in any goverment that pedals to thier will

The United States government is afraid more of their criminal activity will be exposed, what about the cia drugging a town in france with lsd to test the effects as a chemical weapon. They are an allie even. Where is the outrage?
Joe American’s crude post doesn’t warrant a reply, except to say it’s the typical America-right-or-wrong attitude. Sam is just wrong. No one will be killed because of the leak, in fact thousands have been killed because of the malfeasance the leaks reveal. And by the way, as someone who lived abroad (in a US ally nation) for a long time, America’s reputation can’t get much worse, and this kind of opening up can only help.
Because of this information being leaked, people are going to suffer and probly be killed. I hope the people who leaked this info and posted it online should be ashamed. I hope you all can sleep at night! Also this hurts America’s reputation abroad. How about we expose your secrets and see how people react to those.
Sounds like he gave the US Govt a choice: hey, I’m gonna rape you in a minute. If you don’t want me to give you HIV, which you know I’ve got, then you better slip a condom on me before I jam it in there. By the way I’m gonna shove it up your ass too so don’t worry about lube.
Great post. Thanks.
I know it might be a tad ironic, but really, you could moderate some of the rot coming from the ‘info’s

There is no real news with regard to actual events, just in how the communication takes place … excuse me (yawn), OK …. so the overly self-important, the sanctimonious, the paranoid, the tea partiers, and other such misfits will get to wet themselves silly and feel oh so good about being so virtuous and “patriotic”. Ironically, those very people are the ones who have made a mantra of not trusting government, then squeal like stuck pigs when there is any suggestion of diplomatic or military malfeasance. But really, did anyone actually learn anything new about world events from this?
— an American. (sorry)
PS I never heard about the Index on Censorship until a series of links took me to Mr Kaempfert’s (sp?) piece in the Independent. I liked what he said and I like what I see on this site. It’s a comfort to know there are others who keep the real issues in sight. Thanks.
It’s important to remember that this is not representational of the American people unfortunately, and also that the cables are concerned with the corruption of us along with other governments. Many Americans like myself fully support wikileaks and I find the title of a sheep a little skewed.
Excited for future leaks.

The JFK Case: Oswald and His Twelve Handlers
August 22, 2010 By Bill Simpich
With millions of documents released in the years since the JFK Act was passed… Now is the moment to sum up what we have, demand the rest,… Although we may never know who fired the shots at JFK, you may agree that the new documents reveal who called the shots.
One important clue revealed in the documents is that the CIA consciously used Lee Harvey Oswald’s visa requests for espionage purposes before JFK was assassinated. A CIA office used Oswald as “bait” while simultaneously trying to…

‘How to create your very own terrorist state’
Tim Coles takes us through 11 steps necessary to create a “terrorist state”. Using Yemen as a case study, he argues that these steps precisely match US and British policies in Iraq, Afghanistan,
Pakistan, Iran as well as Yemen to grow “very poisonous seeds”, some which have ripened while others are ripening.

THEIR names were flashed around the world as suicide hijackers who carried out the attacks on America. But yesterday four innocent men told how their identities had been stolen by Osama bin Laden’s teams (CIA et al) to cover their tracks.

Well People have to Understand That The truth Cannot be hidden. Even in the Bible Talks about the truth to be sharper than a two edge sword. Many have kept silent for questionable things. We dont know what’s going to happen but as people we rather know the entire story than sit around not knowing what’s going on in this country.Even Martin Luther King in a speech actually said that the worst thing people can do is nothing.So many people did nothing when so many in the U.S were being abused and murdered because of their gender or color and it only had to get worst so that the people could really stand up and do something about all those things. What the people should do is wake up and smell the gun powder because it isn’t flowers and lilies like people try to picture life to be.There is war rising and if your not getting ready then who ever is making the big moves definitely has the weak for easy prey.
Anyone who still believes that we live in a democratic world after these revelations must have a screw loose. We all live under dictatorships led by a personality which is the only thing we get to choose. If you are a threat to this system you will be dealt with accordingly

the UK government under Blair tried to frighten the population but we were not impressed with all his lies. Americans seem to believe all their government tells them, If in doubt read the WikiLeaks and make up your own mind
There has to be purpose why this thing happened to the US government. This will end up with the government’s improving of diplomatic secrecy tactics or waiving more information to the public.

and this is what happens when u keep secrets
or at least when goverments keep secrets
i thought every goverment had to follow theit own laws at least
and that should mean that you may not lei to your own entire country
and keep secrets for the world
telling everyone it all goes by the rules while in fact most is against your own lawes
i guess if a war will come
it will involve the islametic country’s and amerika
but probably china will go against amerika as well
so good luck amerika (u will need it)
Thus far, the “damage” is being done where it’s most deserved – the Islamic dictatorships and their Amemrican Hessians.
We should all encourage WikiLeaks to expose more of the corruption, massive pollution, and social oppression going on in the Islamic dictatorships that have every intention of forcing their regressive way of life on the entire world.
The release of these documents is an act of civic virtue. The veil of ignorance imposed by so-called democracies, intended to blind their citizens in a manipulative construct of consumption and fear, has been withdrawn. The agents of the State are furious that their monopoly on reality has been further compromised.
this will end badly… this isn’t just a leak this site and it’s founder and anyone in the US that is involved are going to suffer some significant reprisal…
