Wikileaks stopped its publications

Congress weighed its options on Thursday for trying to stop WikiLeaks dead in its tracks after the secrets-spreading site started releasing its trove of 250,000 secret U.S. diplomatic cables last month, infuriating U.S. officials. One option members of the House Judiciary Committee discussed was revising the Espionage Act, a World War I-era law that has been used to win convictions against officials who leaked classified information but never against journalists, which WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange portrays himself as being. http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2010/12/16/congress-mulls-stop-wikileaks-tracks/

Libyan leader Muammar Qaddafi's son Saif Al Islam claiming a prominent role in the current crisis, making the rounds of the media to promote the regime position. This cable from the US Embassy in Tripoli in December 2009 offers a glance at Saif's move to expand his political influence, with his staff lobbying American diplomats for sales of military equipment: "he concerted attention that xxxxxxxxxxxx devoted to military and security issues during recent meetings with Emboffs suggests that Saif is beginning to insert himself into the political-military and security spheres."

Wikileaks and Freedom of internet

Update 10/01/2011: ‘ Twitter, and Reacting to DOJ’s Wikileaks Court Order’ Twitter played quite the megaphone allowing Jónsdóttir to let anyone know that the “ United States District Court in Alexandria, Virginia, had issued a so-called 2703 (d) order [pdf], named for the relevant part of Section 18 of U.S. Code, “a couple of hours ago,” informing her that she had “10 days to stop it. “‘ Twitter’s warning said it will comply with the order while giving the opportunity to fight back with the assistance of ACLU or the EFF. They are still uncertainties on which other social media had received the same order. http://clarinettesblog.wordpress.com/2010/12/07/paypol-to-sensor-wikileaks/

American diplomacy seems to have survived Wikileaks’s “attack on the international community,” as Hillary Clinton so dramatically characterized it, unscathed. Save for a few diplomatic reshuffles, Foggy Bottom doesn’t seem to be deeply affected by what happened.

Bank of America Also Refuses to Handle WikiLeaks Payments

Financial giant Bank of America has added its name to the list of institutions dropping support for WikiLeaks , announcing that it has stopped handling any payments to or from the whistle-blowing website. The bank said in a statement to the Charlotte Observer , "This decision is based upon our reasonable belief that WikiLeaks may be engaged in activities that are, among other things, inconsistent with our internal policies for processing payments." As the huge American financial institution confidently declared Saturday that it was standing against the website headed by controversial figure Julian Assange, his WikiLeaks organization fired back a Twitter post urging consumers to stop doing business with Bank of America.

A GLOBAL power’s diplomatic archives are inevitably full of caustic dispatches. In Britain, a new batch of Foreign Office records is declassified each January under the “30-year rule” (a “50-year rule” before 1968). Historians can peruse elegantly handwritten mockeries of President Eisenhower’s name as exotically Eastern European, or files deriding Americans as the planet’s “most excitable” people — other than Bangladeshis.
