Julian Assange

What julian assange has done is acceptable and entirely good.he is a new ruler and achieving by bringing things to spotlight and hope all the government accept him as a revolutionary

Oh yes, he is helping shape and define the limits of freedom of information that the US has ever preached about. If governments are really by the people and for the people, why keep information from them, especially if it is the same people that sustain that very government by way of heavy taxes?!

Most of the "secrets" that are contained in the leaked papers is not very secret at all or trivial in the extreme. I read an article today that said that a great deal of American Embassy messages that are classified as secret actually contain materiel that is in the public domain already since the contents were taken either entirely or partly from public news media. There is far to much done secrecy in government and as such, i'd say that he's doing something good.

I think that people should be able to trust their governments. The fact that these secrets are too vast to be counted goes to show that people in high offices are abusing the power entrusted to them by the people. Good governance includes transparency; just because someone is voted or appointed into a certain position doesn't mean that this person has a right to move under the radar. Why should governments have secrets in the first place if they move and act for the good of the people? Julian Assange may be notorious, but there is a reason why documents and cables are being sent to him. He isn't in on this alone for sure. That he and his team receives that much information from other people is already a cry for help, or a cry for change.

I think government secrets should have some restrictions on going public unless and until they violate human rights.
