OK. Now you can see that it is blown out of proportion. Private companies are caving in. They accepted all money from WikiLeaks or donations for WikiLeaks for how many years? Tell me that they didn't know what WikiLeaks was about. Hypocrites. He maybe did rape, coerced, forced or asked women to have sex with him but the whole "hunt" is a joke. Still, I believe Assange should face the Swedish court for the allegation but then continue to release information.
Of course! Luggage of cash, collateral deaths should remain a secret. BS...

The Plame leak was orchestrated by the government itself to discredit her husband. In the Cablegate, left and right call for Assange and the web site to be silenced. Manning will face a tough trial and deserve it for the leak. Everybody want to stop the leak but it will continue. Don't newspapers have the whole database already? Ron Paul (R) praise the leaks. This demonstrate that the leaks can serve some people's interests even on the right.

WOW! I'd like to have the same spinning ability. "What if" doesn't go anywhere. If he was Chinese or Russian and put in prison, you'll have the west asking for his release and people chanting how free we are on this forum.

It's all over the press. Nothing is denied so why should it be found on WikiLeaks? Do you even understand the purpose of WikiLeaks?

Even if Assange have to be "liquidated", I hope his network will continue the work.

Nothing abnormal here, it's the "global cooling". Take it Al Gore! (flying in your private jet) Since we do not really understand how our climate works and if human activities have/had any impact, we should just continue business as usual. People want cheap products!

Europe failed her supervision of the banking system. Europe failed her supervision of her members. Countries like Greece lied about about her financial status. Is the currency the problem? No. All this mess is the government responsabilities. Nobody wanted any supervision and low regulations.

"your pearls of wisdom" directly the big words :-)
UK has been euroseptic from the beginning because of her particular financial position. About the US, Europe has failed in the short term of being a or the world economic engine in place of the US. The problem we see now is, I hope, because Europe is still in young and countries like the PIGS should be disciplined on fiscal level to be responsible. While Europe has a foot in the tomb, vultures are already waiting for the investment opportunities after a massive stock value devaluation following the death of the euro.

WilliB: That is when the crunch comes and the Euro scheme will have to be dissolved. And good riddance.
Why good riddance?
Only Anglo-Saxons and US alike don't want it to work and will do everything they can to make it fail.
The European Union is a good idea and a unified currency also.
