Comments:WikiLeaks releases Iraq War logs

There's a reason this kind of stuff is marked secret, and Julian Assange has no damn right to break that. If it was anyone else releasing that information, the FBI or the CIA would be all over him like chicken pox in a kindergarten. And now he's been denied official residency in Sweden, he's got nowhere to go with his "whistle blowing" protection, since Sweden was the only place to offer it in law. Personally, no matter how much he thinks this is in the common good, Julian Assange needs to learn that sometimes, it's better to let people believe you're a fool, than to do something so stupid that it proves it beyond all reasonable doubt.

 * For someone who exercises their right to freedom of speech and the press so exuberantly, Your harsh criticisms of Assange lack substance and seem to contradict your own desire for freedom of expression. Sure you can Bark all you want, but for one so bold as to call themself "Barkingfish", I must say - your bark has no bite. 67.142.172.24 (talk) 02:29, 28 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Before you come on here spouting your giblets at me, I don't desire freedom of expression when it involves publishing something which could potentially endanger the lives of people providing intelligence to the soldiers, and trying to stop the war rather than lengthen it. If you'd be prepared to put freedom of expression above the lives of hundreds more civilians in Iraq who could see themselves hitlisted because of the absence of a proper checking procedure by Wikileaks, then more fool you I say.
