250,000 secret American government documents have been released by Julian Assange on his web page Wikileaks. Is this a bad thing or a good thing? It depends on who you are and what you believe in.
The worst situation that can happen from this leak is that people who work for the secret service (every country has them) stand a very real possibility of getting killed because of these leaked documents, hopefully they will take measures to protect themselves. We are at war with a vicious enemy, terrorists who do not care about killing women and children. The only way to stop them is to find them and attack them before they attack us. And, the only way to find them is with undercover people who may now be revealed to these enemies because of these leaked documents and so all their efforts will be lost. This will weaken the whole effort to stop these dangerous terrorists.
Since the person responsible for this leak of information, Julian Assange claims that he did this to stop governments from illegal undercover operations and so force them to have open governments that are more democratic. This is clearly a smoke screen to cover-up his support of terrorist organizations. If he were against terrorists he would have removed the names of undercover agents before publishing these documents. Julian Assange must now be declared a criminal
