Ron Paul: ‘What we need is more WikiLeaks’

[mhgaffney]

I love this guy, Ron Paul. He has the guts to openly criticize the war policy, the federal reserve, and the loss of civil liberties.

Now he's speaking out about WikiLeaks. Paul picked a good time to quote Orwell.

In recent days Homeland Security has begun shutting down websites -- the start of an Internet crack down. Also, last week the FBI began arresting peace activists in the Chicago area who had traveled to Israel-Palestine to support Palestinian rights.

So now -- free speech is under attack and peace work is terrorism. Go Ron Paul!

Someone please induce Paul to sit down with Dennis Kucinich and Ralph Nader and found a new independent political party.

WikiLeaks is doing what our media should be doing.

Exactly!

Maybe both of you also agree with ASSange that the soldier is a hero?

Ron Paul nailed it when he said "When those who speak truth are accused of treason -- we are in deep trouble..."

You are watching pundits and politicians on TV accuse WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange of various crimes.

In this rare interview Assange answers questions. For once, get it from the horse's mouth:

There is absolutely no doubt soldier committed treason. Hopefully he never sees the sun again as a free man.

Ellsberg was in a similar situation after releasing the Pentagon Papers.

They took him to court -- but the judge threw out the case. (White House agents had broken into the office of Ellsberg's psychiatrist looking for something to smear him with. The judge concluded that the federal government had violated the law.)

No. What he did was illegal & irresponsible. And he will have to pay for his actions.

Still doesn't change the fact that some of this info the media keeps from us or simply doesn't bother to dig up. You shouldn't fear the truth about what your country is doing with your money and childrens lives.
