An Example of Manning`s Whistleblowing

This is an example of the important information the US tries to keep secret from the public...

(PORTLAND, OR) - If you follow the story of the IAEA and Iranian nukes, you may have noticed a pro-US bias in the IAEA’s bureaucracy in Vienna.

That was precisely the result the US expected when it pushed Yukiya Amano of Japan, a nation with a military alliance with the US, to be secretary general. The US mission to the IAEA reported that Amano is “solidly in the US court on every key strategic decision, from high-level personnel appointments to the handling of Iran’s alleged nuclear weapons program”.

Assange Seeks to Avoid Paying the Price for Messing with America

The US quickly stepped in to educate the Ecuadorean coalition leaders as to the facts of Western Hemispheric imperial life.

(TASMANIA, Aust) - I’m sure most Americans are mighty proud of the fact that Julian Assange is so frightened of falling into the custody of the United States that he had to seek sanctuary in the embassy of Ecuador, a tiny and poor Third World country, without any way of knowing how it would turn out.

He might be forced to be there for years.

Talking Truth About Assange and Vanunu by Noble Laureate and a Candidate for US HOUSE

Many believe those in high places not only wish to punish Assange for outing them, but as a warning to others to remain silent.

(CLERMONT, FLA) - As concerned citizens of the World know, the Editor-in-Chief of WikiLeaks, Julian Assange, is currently inside the Ecuadorian Embassy, in London, having gone there to ask for Political Asylum.

I would add my voices to that of many people of conscience, around the world, in urging President Correa to grant political asylum to Julian Assange.

Hero on the Run: Julian Assange and his US Detractors

Who is the real criminal?

Afghanistan: De-Pashtunization of Pashtuns by Taliban & Pakistan

Americans Forget; Afghans Do Not

In a fast moving media world the US public probably moved on long ago and has only vague and distant memories of the pictures of the “trophy” takers, while such things are burned into the minds of Afghan public.

(JAMESTOWN, RI) - The latest twist and turn in the Afghan misadventure takes the form of anti-American riots, protests, and bombs, by Afghans at Americans over the burning of the Koran by American military.

Mainstream media leads readers to believe that the uproar is solely because of the burning incident, however there is far more to it.
