Well, thanks you for your calm answer, i could almost read the *sigh* after it
. I guess i went over the top with my post, however .. if a nation or its government conducts a crime, in the best intention or not (ahem), do you think it should rather cover that up than say sorry ?
"A democracy has to defend itself", but if it gets again its own and international law ?
"Right or wrong my country" is also an often-heard proverb, but ...
The Pentagon Papers: "
When The New York Times began publishing its series, President Richard Nixon became incensed. His words to National Security Advisor Henry Kissinger included "People have gotta be put to the torch for this sort of thing..." and "Let's get the son-of-a-bitch in jail.""
So you think this would be the right thing to do ? The New York times was too big it seems, but maybe Assange with his now worldwide support is not.
Thanks and greetings,
Catfish
