Larry Flynt: Why I Am Donating $50,000 to WikiLeaks’ Defense Fund: “Let’s get something straight: Julian Assange is a journalist. You can argue that he is not practicing journalism the way you think it should be practiced — releasing classified U.S. State Department documents — but he’s a journalist nonetheless. And for many of us he’s a hero.

I’m sick and tired of the politicians and political pundits treating this man as if he were a criminal. If WikiLeaks had existed in 2003 when George W. Bush was ginning up the war in Iraq, America might not be in the horrendous situation it is today, with our troops fighting in three countries (counting Pakistan) and the consequent cost in blood and dollars.”

The plan was to perform the same routine as any other Christmas Day: place presents under the tree and unwrap them as a group.

But when narcotics detectives in the Rhineland-Palatinate region of Germany stumbled across his unusual Christmas tree in a drug bust, they were stunned and cuffed him.”

 

Can An Idiot Hide Her Stupidity? Caribou Barbie Says, Youbetcha!: “Caribou Barbie wa’ah-wa’ahs about the press all the time.

She cries about their stories on her children (except when she’s whoring her children out to them for her own purposes,) she whines about their scrutiny of her actions as an executive (except when they write some puff piece about her ‘maverick’ Alaskan tenure, which never happened,) and of course, she complains constantly about the press misconstruing everything she says (like that mean old Katie Couric having the audacity to ask her the names of newspapers she reads, and policy questions. Imagine!)”

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange ‘will release damaging secrets if killed or arrested’ | Mail Online: “The founder of WikiLeaks has warned that his supporters are primed to publish a ‘deluge’ of leaked government documents should his activities be curtailed by any country.

Julian Assange has distributed to fellow hackers an encrypted ‘poison pill’ of damaging secrets, thought to include details on BP and Guantanamo Bay.

He believes the file is his ‘insurance’ in case he is killed, arrested or the whistleblowing website is removed permanently from the internet.

Mr Assange – understood to be lying low in Britain – could be arrested by Scotland Yard officers as early as tomorrow.

A warrant for his arrest was issued last Thursday by Swedish prosecutors who want to quiz him over rape allegations.”

Supporters dismissed rape accusations against WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange… but the two women involved tell a different story | Mail Online: “It is a story as intriguing and confusing as a Stieg Larsson blockbuster: celebrated internet whistleblower becomes embroiled in a complex sex scandal involving two women, not long after he had masterminded one of the biggest intelligence leaks of all time – against the U.S.

That the action takes place in Sweden, Larsson’s home country, and that the protagonist is the flag-waver for freedom of information Julian Assange, founder of WikiLeaks, provides added piquancy.

Assange, 39, was attending a seminar in Stockholm earlier this month when he found himself facing charges of rape and sexual molestation – charges that were then, amid much confusion, withdrawn and which he strenuously denies. “
