The time has come for progressive elements to call for the end of
secrecy.<br>
Our government, in its waging of war for profit, has become
precisely the same<br>
monarchy that we rebelled against 230 years ago. End Government
secrecy now.<br>

<p>Forget China or Al Qaeda. In a twist that would have been
inconceivable even a few months ago, the WikiLeaks.org Web
site is being proposed as the first public target for a
U.S. government cyberattack. </p>
<p>After the shadowy, document-leaking organization <a
moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://news.cnet.com/8301-13578_3-20020516-38.html">distributed
nearly 400,000 classified documents</a> from the Iraq
war on Friday, Washington officialdom responded with a
torrent of denunciations alleging violations of national
security and endangering U.S. military operations. </p>
<p>In a rare point of congruence, The Washington Post and
The Washington Times both criticized the release, with the
smaller paper arguing that WikiLeaks' offshore Web site
should be attacked and rendered "inoperable" by the U.S.
government. Some hawkish conservatives followed suit,
including <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.whiton.com/">Christian Whiton</a>, a
State Department adviser under President George W. Bush,
who <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2010/10/25/christian-whiton-wiki-leaks-ignore-threat-obama-democrats-congress-iraq-war/">wrote</a>
a column calling on the U.S. military to "electronically
assault WikiLeaks and any telecommunications company
offering its services to this organization." </p>
