Re: WikiLeaks, Amazon, Paypal, and Mastercard

One of the early members and co-founders of the tight-knit, secretive
WikiLeaks operation charged today that the website and its co-founder,
Julian Assange, sold intelligence information the site had obtained.

John Young, whose name was listed as the public face of WikiLeaks in
the site's original domain registration, also alleged that the website
is a lucrative business.

Young said he left the site in 2007 due to concerns over its finances
and that WikiLeaks was engaged in the selling of documents.

Young was speaking today to WND senior reporter Aaron Klein on Klein's
radio program on New York's WABC Radio.

"I think it is a money-making operation, no doubt," Young said of
WikiLeaks.

Assange is not a digital Robin Hood. He is a hacker, a thug, and an
accused rapist. That last is a charge leveled, not by the U.S.
Department of State, but by Sweden which has a pretty liberal view of
such things, so if they have asked INTERPOL to help hunt Assange down
to answer a rape charge it may well be legit.

Here's the thing about what Assange is doing: He has decided that he,
among the 6.7 billion humans on the Earth, is solely qualified to
decide what should be held secret and what should be made public.
