WikiLeaks among nominees for Nobel Peace Prize

"Funding terrorism" was not likely the culprit. Ideological and political convenience was. It is about as worthy as an award in Hollywood. The only difference is that people seem to give more of a damn about it at the moment.

Perhaps you guys are too brainwashed with Fox News nonsense to realize this, but promoting transparancy is actually a peaceful thing to do. It's funny, you guys are the same people who go with the whole "if you have nothing to hide then the Patriot Act won't affect you" attitude, yet you are offended by government document leaks?

I am not a fan of Julian Assange, but Wikileaks serves a noble purpose, especially since journalism in this country has become so spineless.

I happen to think the nation-state has done more for world peace and human advancement than the cavalier attitudes of the little turds at Wikileaks who do enough to undermine their actions and image for brief and most hollow congratulations.

This rates up there with nominating Obama... a guy who had never actually done any job he was elected to do, because he immediately starting campaigning for the next job... for the Nobel peace prize before he'd even been elected president!!! I mean, they literally nominated him based on a damned campaign speech!!

How lame is that??

Nothing you just said is accurate.
 
Considering that wikileaks has exposed more secrets than the rest of the worlds media combined. Yeah, I'd say that they deserve it.
