Wikileaks and Julian Assange – explicated

The most interesting thing I’ve read on Wikileaks and Julian Assange is here.  Totally fascinating.  I’m conflicted about Assange; part of feminism for me is to believe people when they accuse someone of sexual assault and rape.
I am less conflicted about the Wikileaks project, though, after seeing the way the U.S. government is choosing to deal with the leak of the diplomatic cables.
