Freedom of speech?

Wikileaks:

I believe that privacy should not be reviled publically unless for the use of justice. For sites like Wikileaks leaking private documents I’m strongly against it however, once again for justice I am all for exposing any potential war crimes that may have been committed.

I believe the world’s security is widely threatened by the website. This anti-American site surely does its job create a huge hassle and to NATO forces and their local national allies will be injured and killed because the information leaked on this site.

Wikileaks claims to be a “not-for-profit media organization. Our goal is to bring important news and information to the public.” I see this site with no filter... and completely unnecessary.

What astonishes me about this and the stuff WikiLeaks published a few months back is the sheer number of documents they've managed to get hold of.

There is no grand quest for truth, just an uncaring attempt to hassle a nonexistent enemy.

While reading over people’s blogs on the internet I found a wide range of good arguments… With the right point’s one can argue each side. As for me, I’m strongly against Wikileaks.

Here are some blogs that I found interesting:

AIC-

During the simulation each student will have the opportunity to take part in a complex activity that simulates the diplomatic process as it pertains to one of the world’s most important and potentially consuming issues – the conflict between Israeli and the Arab world. As participants, you will research, explore, discuss, debate, and work toward building solutions related to the AIC.
While being apart of the Russian group, I hope to accomplish a peaceful two state solution. With the help of my team mates: Charles and Stephanie I am looking forward to finishing the AIC with confidence and more knowledge then when we started.

Timeline: North Korean attacks

Seoul said there was no doubt North Korea sank the Cheonan

South Korea says it has "overwhelming " evidence that a North Korean torpedo sank the Cheonan warship in March 2010, killing 46 sailors. BBC News looks at some of the other major attacks and incursions which have been blamed on North Korea.

January 1967

North Korean artillery targets a South Korean vessel, the Dangpo, patrolling in the Yellow Sea with 70 sailors on board. The ship sinks, killing 39 of the crew.

January 1968

A team of 31 North Korean commandos crosses into South Korea and breaks into the presidential palace, the Blue House, in an attempt to assassinate President Park Chung-hee. The attempt is crushed by South Korean security forces, Mr Park survives but seven South Koreans and most of the commandos are killed.

January 1968

The research ship the USS Pueblo is captured by North Korea while on a surveillance mission. One crew member dies during the capture and the remaining 82 are taken to prison camps in the North.

The prisoners are released 11 months later after the US gave an apology and assurances the vessel had not been spying - both were later retracted. The Pueblo remains in North Korea as a museum - the only US warship in captivity.

December 1969

A South Korean airliner is hijacked and forced to fly to North Korea. Dozens of passengers are taken hostage. In January, 39 of the hostages were released but the remaining 12 are not known to have been freed.

August 1974

President Park's wife dies during a second attempt on his life - she is hit by stray bullets after a suspected North Korean agent opens fire at a public function.

October 1983

North Korea bombs a hotel in Rangoon, Burma, during a visit by President Chun Doo-hwan. He survives but 21 people, including some government ministers, are killed.

November 1987

A bomb, allegedly planted by North Korean agents, explodes on board a South Korean airliner travelling to Seoul from Baghdad. All 115 passengers and crew are killed.

September 1996

A North Korean submarine runs aground near Gangneung, off the east coast of South Korea, while allegedly conducting a spy mission. The crew of 26 escape to the shore, sparking a manhunt.

Eleven of the crew are found dead, apparently shot by their compatriots, but the rest go on the run for nearly two months. One alleged spy escapes, one is captured by South Korean security forces and the rest are killed. Several South Koreans also die in the operation.

March 2010

A 1,200-tonne Corvette, the Cheonan, mysteriously goes down near the disputed maritime border with North Korea - the Northern Limit Line. Many of the crew members escape but 46 are killed. After an extensive investigation, Seoul rules that a torpedo explosion directly beneath the vessel sank it and that the only "plausible explanation" is that North Korea was to blame.

And now as we all know Tuesday, November 24th 2010

North Korea bombs South Korea's Yeonpyeong Island

Two South Korean soldiers were killed and a dozen injured after North Korea fired dozens of artillery shells onto a South Korean island setting more than 60 houses ablaze and sending civilians fleeing in terror. The incident is believed to have been sparked by South Korean military exercises in the area, which the North had objected to.

What's going to happen?

Well I'm not really sure, nor do I think we really will know for a while.

Not only does North Korea have an army of a million, substantial conventional weapons, possible nuclear weapons, and an apparent willingness to use them, they also have a particularly problematic alliance with China. China appears to be rebuking President Obama’s appeal to that country to put pressure on North Korea to stand down. America as we know has a large trade with china, in saying so who has more to loose? China being an up coming country not only economical but also technological? Or the US who is slowly but surely declining overall? Conflicts for the U.S are rising and should really be looked after, considering not only do they have troops in South Korea but they are a possible target to have to find new country's to trade with.

After re-thinking Korea's nuclear history, and lying, I really don't know what to think...other then they're powerful and it'll be interesting to see what china will do as well as America.
