Don't leak my address: Astonishing plea from WikiLeaks boss as he tries to get bail

Re: Don't leak my address: Astonishing plea from WikiLeaks boss as he tries to get ba

Question 1: Did he give direct addresses of those people?

Question 2: If no addresses was given then....Do you have any idea how many people are named "Muhammed" (or some spelling variation thereof) in Afghan? While I don't either I've noticed that name crop up more than any other when it comes to muslim names. Now while thier names may not have been "Muhammed" what is to say that thier names are not repeated as much as "Muhammed"? IE how many people have the same name? Or do you think that the terrorists will call out for a jihad against people of a particular name? They would probably have to end up killing some of their own if they did that though so....

Would you like your name published if you were them ??

Since you seem to know so much about the leak, you tell us how many were named Muhammed. I'm assuming they have more than one name, so I would imagine it was narrowed down a bit.

For instance, a Taliban fighter considering defection was named, his father was named, and the village he lived in was named. That's about as close to an address as you could get in Afghanistan. You think they would have any trouble finding him and his family, even if his name was Muhammad ??? That's a pretty sad defense of the pig Assange.

I think that if one single person was/is killed due to these leaks, Assange should be imprisoned for life as an accessory to murder.

Another word for that would be "semantics". Something which I recall you using on me a long time ago in a gay marriage thread. ;)

I can't prove a negative. I have not heard of any leaks containing the names of the informants father and/or village that he lived in.

As for the names of the informants, I tried looking up some names. Interestingly enough I couldn't find a single name from an informant. Perhaps someone else around here will have better luck? wikileaks

He would be no more at fault than some nutjob on the air saying that he wished someone was dead and then someone else living a thousand miles away goes out and kills that person.
 
Re: Don't leak my address: Astonishing plea from WikiLeaks boss as he tries to get ba

Agreed. This is one case where I could support Shariah law.

But he would have to agree to it, and that's only in civil matters... What you say makes no sense...

Whatever, Assange should just go to Sweden and get questioned already, I don't see what all this hooblah is about. Get it over and done with so he can be freed already.

To be honest I actually want him to be extradited to the US; it would be so much fun.

Well that settles it then. If you haven't heard of it, then I guess it never happened. Perhaps YOU should learn a little more about the problem rather than rushing to defend this POS.

The leaking of 90,000 U.S. intelligence documents has put hundreds of Afghan lives at risk because the files identify informants working with NATO forces, The Times of London reported on Wednesday.

In just two hours of searching the WikiLeaks archive, reporters found the names, villages, and fathers' names of dozens of Afghans credited with providing intelligence to U.S. forces, the paper said.

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has said that all the released reports were checked for named informants and that 15,000 such documents had been held back to protect people.

Despite his claim, The Times of London gave examples of informants named in the released documents.

'[X] said that he would be killed'
The paper, which withheld all details that would identify Afghans, said a Taliban fighter considering defection was named in a 2008 interview. The document reportedly included his village and statements he made about specific commanders and other potential defectors.

"The meeting ended with [X] agreeing to meet with intel personnel from the battalion," the report reads, according the paper. It was not known whether the man subsequently left the Taliban.

In a case from 2007, a middleman and the Taliban commander he spoke to were both named, according to the paper.

"[X] said that he would be killed if he got caught interacting with any coalition forces, which is why he hides when we go into [Y]," the report read, according to The Times.

I read alot of "reportedly" in that article. So I tried to look up the original London times article. You need a subscription to view it. So guess that's no help there. Got anything else?
