[2010] Wikileaks' Julian Assange "in Danger"
President Obama celebrated with new U.S. citizens at a naturalization ceremony Friday as both immigration advocates and Republicans expressed outrage at his deportation proposals. President Obama celebrated the naturalization of 13 U.S. service members and seven military spouses in South Korea on Friday, congratulating the new American citizens and expressing his pride at joining the ceremony at the National War Memorial in Seoul. “If there’s anything this should teach us, it is that America is strengthened by our immigrants," he said, repeating his determination to reform the U.S. immigration system. Meanwhile, back in Washington, his administration remains wedged between a congressional Republican-generated rock-and-hard-place on the issue of immigration reform, as it has for nearly a year. How would Obama bring about this border Armageddon? It’s a tough line to straddle, since anything Obama does to appease one side is seen as a big middle finger by the other. “Here’s the attitude.

U.S. Urges Allies to Crack Down on WikiLeaks
For five long and very strange years, death haunted tiny Dryden, NY, a town near the Finger Lakes where a plague of car accidents, suicides, and even grisly murders involving two popular cheerleaders just kept mounting up. At the end of Fargo, Frances McDormand’s police chief, Marge Gunderson, captures the psycho played by Peter Stormare. He’s in the backseat of her police cruiser and she talks to him as she drives. We see that she cannot fathom the evil she’s just seen. “And here ya are,” she says, “and it’s a beautiful day. I am not surprised by violence or horror but still sometimes find myself struck, not unlike Marge, in a kind of a daze, unable to wrap my head around it. Why do horrible things happen?

WikiLeaks: la surveillance en 140 signes » Article » OWNI, Digital Journalism
En voulant forcer Twitter à coopérer dans son enquête contre Julian Assange, le Département de la justice américain espère probablement trouver des preuves contre le fondateur de WikiLeaks. Il vient surtout d'envoyer un message désastreux. Dans la quête qu’il a engagé pour coincer légalement Julian Assange, le département de la Justice (DoJ) américain a multiplié les manoeuvres depuis six semaines. Le 30 novembre, soit le lendemain des premières fuites diplomatiques coordonnées par WikiLeaks, le procureur général Eric Holder notifiait la presse de l’ouverture d’une “enquête active”. C’était sans compter sur la solidité du Premier Amendement et son importance jurisprudentielle. Twitter, pour quoi faire? Si la task force judiciaire a desserré l’étau autour des rédactions pour les laisser travailler, elle n’a pas abandonné son obsession: le 8 janvier, le DoJ a transmis à Twitter un “subpoena” (une injonction dans le droit anglo-saxon).
