Wikileaks, secrecy and the suppression of truth in the U.S.

Wikileaks, the whistle-blower website, has again published a massive trove of documents, this time from a private intelligence firm known as Stratfor. The source of the leak was the hacker group "Anonymous," which took credit for obtaining more than 5 million emails from Stratfor's servers. Anonymous obtained the material on Dec. 24, 2011, and provided it to Wikileaks, which in turn partnered with 25 media organizations globally to analyze the emails and publish them.

Accused whistle-blower Pvt. Bradley Manning turned 24 Saturday. He spent his birthday in a pre-trial military hearing that could ultimately lead to a sentence of life ... or death. Manning stands accused of causing the largest leak of government secrets in United States history.

Bradley Manning

U.S. Army soldier Bradley E. Manning was arrested in Iraq on May 2010. Manning was detained under allegations that he had supplied the website WikiLeaks with classified material. 

In July 2010, Manning was charged with transferring restricted material onto his personal computer, and sharing national defence information with an unauthorized source. An additional 22 charges were laid against Manning in March 2011.

Amongst other classified data and footage, the leaked material is believed to have comprised 250,000 U.S. diplomatic cables.

Spearheaded in June 2010, the Bradley Manning Support Network serves as the public response to Manning’s incarceration.
