According to the Sicko filmmaker, Michael Moore, that "ban" story was made up by American diplomats.

Not banned

I learned a new word today: tendentious

My God, Wikileaks lies... Michael Moore could never be tendentious.

If I were him I would make something up to defend his nauseating movies as well.

This is the only Wikileaks cable that is false. They made it up because they wanted even secret channels to discredit Sicko.

According to some, Wikileaks is showering everyone with the dirt.

Undertoad · 12-20-2010, 09:35 PM

So far Wikileaks is suggesting the opposite; I read an opinion piece today that pointed out that the leaks are so far telling the world that the US Gov is doing pretty much exactly what it says it has. Other than the rendition business, most of the world's conspiracy theories about what's "really" going on with the US have not been proven out by any leaks.

It is kind of ironic that our evil empire of a government gives people the right of free speech. Even though our evil empire of a goverment doesn't want their non secrets out, they will not be able to press charges against wiki-leaks because of our evil government's long history of giving freedom to the press. Mr. Ass is really challenging that liberty, not because he has some high moral reason, no, he just is a wanker.

Look. Our evil government allows websites to publish links to the cables. They can respond to them and in this case make fun of them.

The sky is not falling. The American government is embarrassed but not broken. There really isn't anything newsworthy in them, except for that UT mentioned. It isn't that the American government hiding something, it is that they were PRIVATE. Like Mr. ASS bets he would like to keep his rape charges private.

There are many countries with blasphemy laws. That means talking out against one's own government in any manner. There are personal and civil liberties denied in many countries, but this isn't one of them.

It wouldn't be so bad if an American leaked the papers, but it really pisses me off to have non American's bashing Americans.

Why don't people take an interest in those countries that curtail and punish people who dare to take issue or have their civil liberties limited. I mean
wtf!
