Ärende: State Department Leaks
==============================
Replying to a message of Jeff Binkley to All:

 JB> Everyone,

 JB> Why is nobody calling for The Shrew to be held accountable for the
 JB> State  Department leaks to the Wiki site ?  If this were a Republican
 JB> they  would be calling for a complete investigation of the State
 JB> Department.   Why isn't Hillary being held accountable, unless this
 JB> is more of the  Obama Administration attempting to discredit the US
 JB> and her allies.

I'm not sure the leak was in DOS.  Some Army guy was nailed some time back
for making unauthorized copies of thousands of classified documents and giving
copies of the CD to the media.  Not sure but this may be the source for most of
Wiki's material.

She shure has been flapping her jaw about it the last couple of days.  Any
press
coverage is good coverage to people like her, I guess.

I note that the US government apparnently engaged in cyber attacks against the
Wiki site to try to shut it down.  I would not be a bit surprised if the US
government
kidnapped the people running Wiki and brought them here for trial.

People - particularly government officials and their supporters - can't seem to
understand
that US law is without force or effect outside of the US.  That's why I have
major problems
with the conduct of this government WRT Manuel Noriega and Saddam Hussein. 
Neither of
them was a sterling example of humanity, but neither of them had ever set foot
in this
country, either.  The US government conquered Panama and then dragged Noriega
from his
country to this one in order to put him on 'trial.'  The same is true of all
those people at
Guantanamo, the US government has no legitimate power to enforce its laws
outside of its
borders - the fact that it can and does is one reason the US is as unpopular as
it is in parts
of the rest of the world.  Might does not necessarily make right.
