WikiLeaks data now on 1800 sites Posted: December 14, 2010 1:58 am Eastern © 2010 In last week's Surfin' Safari, I reported that the whistleblowing site WikiLeaks could be transformed from a handful of volunteers to a global movement. One week later, there are more than 1,800 websites now hosting WikiLeaks in different languages and locales. And while WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange is in a British jail, some of his former staffers led by Daniel Domscheit-Berg have launched a competing site for whistleblowers called OpenLeaks. Domscheit-Berg, Assange's former right-hand man, left last September, according to DN.se, after bristling under Assange's autocratic ways. WatchWikiRebels, the self-explaining documentary.

INDEED.

I’ve explained my beliefs on the topics concerned

AT LENGTH.

You must REALLY be blind.

Sheesh what denseness.

[Quix]

It’s more than a little pathetic that you believe that kind of false nonsense you wrote.

Everything about the guy is phony. Just watch it -- by 2012, the US will be a shadow of it's former self. ANd the worse thing is that Obama has already pissed off former friends (the UK etc) and badly, BADLY pissed off a strong possible future friend (India).

In fact his last visit to India was a classic case -- he seemed to speak about supporting India as a permanent member of the UN Security Council (a cherished dream of India since Nehru being a non-politician and very naive, gave up India's seat to China -- India views this as a sign that it is not considered dirt, it's a question of deep national pride) -- but when they found out the next day that he just meant the TEMPORARY members, the cheers turned to deep hatred.

They were the only country (along with Israel and a couple of E. European ones I think -- can't remember) who distrusted him. Now they loathe him. What will happen is that Obama is undoing all the good work that Bush did (note that India had a 65% approval rating for Bush right to the end) in making india one of our guys (and why not -- we share the same aims and have only common enemies and are both part of the Anglophone world).

Anyway, by 2012, if O keeps pissing off the Indians, they're going to be driven into Russian arms. THe Indians have already taken things into their own hands, forming alliances with Japan, S. korea, Australia, Singapore and the Philippines and Vietnam. WIth Russia these guys would hope to contain China. I guess they've given up on the US being there to help.

THANKS FOR YOUR KIND AFFIRMATIONS.

At least their idiocies are keeping the thread active.

LOL.

It is rather shocking to see such absolutely clueless obtuseness, blindness or simply wildly blind mean-spirited viciousness.

I suppose considering the sources, I shouldn’t have been so surprised. But it’s still shocking to see it persistently played out post after post.

Maybe they are drinking overmuch again.

SURE APPRECIATE YOU BRO.

[Quix]

EXCELLENT POINTS.

[Cronos]

The problem is that the site in your link has a lot of these disturbing statements which it seems the sitemaster believes in -- by linking to that site without a caveat, you do give the wrong impression of complete acceptance. Perhaps a caveat, if I may, stating that you don't believe most of this website.

now, we've got a serious discussion on fractals -- and THAT is interesting! Higher maths is fun

[Judith Anne]

You have been around since, what, 2009? Wow.

[Quix]

You’re right.

I think I’ve learned my lesson on that score! Sheesh!

Maybe I’ll just post the link to the FR thread from now on.

Sheesh.

This is not the Religion Forum, bb.

The rules apply across the board. The home page of Free Republic states:

Please enjoy our forum, but also please remember to use common courtesy when posting and refrain from posting personal attacks, profanity, vulgarity, threats, racial or religious bigotry, or any other materials offensive or otherwise inappropriate for a conservative family audience.

[Quix]

Quite so.

However, by habit or custom or busy-ness or whatever . . .

most mods seem reluctant to wade into flame wars in chat or bloggers . . . etc.

So the culture here has become more bare knuckled.

And, it does afford a certain level of more accurate, blunt candor the Rel Forum doesn’t. For better or worse! LOL.

[Judith Anne]

Sheesh! For once we agree.

Boatbums, have a cup of tea.

[boatbums]

I hate to say it, but it's obvious the viciousness is being carried over in thread after thread because of your stand against their religion. A reasonable person would not have jumped to such a drastic conclusion without at least giving you the benefit of the doubt first and listening to what you were trying to say. There is nothing wrong with challenging what a person is saying and disputing what you don't agree with with good arguments of your own.

This is nothing more than virtual "assassination" or "jihad" of someone whom they don't like because of other postings not even related to this post's subject. It is a form of bullying and we need to protect each other from the disruptors. I'd do it in a heartbeat if I saw it happening to them and I've seen you do so as well, many times.

[Quix]

VERY WELL PUT.

Thanks for an accurate and honorable memory.

INDEED, you are right.

>> the graphical implications

A testament to Euclidean geometry. No matter the dimension, someone will find a way to project it. That can be good and bad.

[boatbums]

No thanks, the caffeine would keep me awake and I intend on going to bed shortly. Maybe it’s you that needs the tea?
