It is interesting to hear that there is overwhelming sentiment against Wikileaks in the US. From the comments I have read on newspaper articles about Wikileaks here in Australia, I would think a majority of people here (maybe about 75%) are supportive. Personally, I think there is good and bad in what Julian Assange and his team are doing, but that the good definitely outweighs the bad. Regards, Wayne Eddy.
