Never knowingly out of the political limelight, Dame Vivienne Westwood today courted controversy by creating pro-Julian Assange T-shirts for her guests to wear front row at her London Fashion Week show. Held at London’s Foreign and Commonwealth Office, Westwood chose the occasion and venue to make a stand about the UK’s decision not to block his extradition to Sweden over alleged sex crimes. Model Jade Parfitt sat front row proudly wearing the ‘I’m Julian Assange’ T-shirt which Westwood had designed.

http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2011/sep/02/why-i-had-to-leave-wikileaks I joined WikiLeaks last November as a staffer for a three-month stint. Culture shock came just a few days in, when Julian Assange gathered core staff and supporters at Ellingham Hall, a manor house owned by the Frontline Club founder and WikiLeaks supporter Vaughan Smith. Around the dining table the team sketched out a plan for the coming months, to release the leaked US diplomatic cables selectively for maximum impact.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/how-wikileaks-vindicated-bushs-anti-terrorism-strategy/2011/05/10/AFkKtU1G_story.html Osama bin Laden’s death at the hands of U.S. special operations forces is a major success in our country’s war against al-Qaeda. As a result of the Central Intelligence Agency’s interrogation program and the intelligence gained from detainees held in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, a major fraction of al-Qaeda’s senior leadership has been captured or killed since 2001.

WikiLeaks Loses Control of Some of Its Own Secrets

Carl Court/Agence France-Presse — Getty Images The founder of WikiLeaks, Julian Assange, has had a falling out with some news organizations.

Announcing ScienceLeaks

This venture was triggered by the many people complaining that they couldn't evaluate the 'arseniclife' paper because the journal Science only allowed access to its abstract, not to the full paper or its supplementary online materials. In response, Science temporarily opened access to people wiling to register at their site, but when the month ends the barrier will go right back up.

Wikileaks Rest in Peace

Like you, KOW reader, I have been pondering the ongoing wikileaks story trying to puzzle out what it all means, what it tells us about what is happening to world society, the state system, war and international security.

Netwar meets Oprah: The Wikileaks Files, Volume whatever

"I just don’t think that Wikileaks is particularly interested in a ‘truth’ other than the one they had preconceived which is the same as that long championed by reprobate minds like Moore’s and Pilger’s who believe the United States to be acutely malign and who reckon (contrary to reason) that the leaks actually demonstrate this to be true. Anyway, leave that. I’m open to suggestions of a better analogy." by alcide Dec 22

Wikileaks - Cablegate / Statelogs

Thanks alcide & jubault - just let it know around you :-) by Patrice Dec 14

c est top guys, keep up the good work! by jubault Dec 14

Alors la possibilité de faire équipe est excellente, j'attendais ça avec impatience, et je suis content du résultat notamment sur la perle qui concerne le 'cablegate' . Quant aux équipes Wikileaks elles-mêmes, je pense que grâce à elles il doit y avoir sur Pearltrees une très large couverture du sujet. Après pour couvrir les fuites elles-mêmes, je trouve dommage que l'adresse wikileaks.org soit morte parce que j'avais commencé à commenter les documents à partir d'elles, mais ça ce n'est pas du ressort de Pearltrees. Et avec la multiplicité des miroirs, je ne suis pas sûr que tout le monde lise les fuites à la même source. En tout cas avec les divers intérêts des membres des équipes, à terme sur Pearltrees on devrait finir par avoir une couverture alternative à celle des grands médias. by alcide Dec 13

Oui, en français, c'est bien aussi. Alors comment trouves-tu ces teams wikileaks? Je dois die que le ésultat m'impressione assez! by Patrice Dec 13

Hi Patrice, good to see you too ! :=) Wikileaks is such a trending topic, and there are so many things about it to pearl ! Enfin on aurait pu se dire tout ça en français aussi. :=) by alcide Dec 6
