Wikileaks, Hands Off Wikileaks Defence Campaign.



Wall Street Journal calls for war against wikileaks. Build Hands Off Wikileaks Campaign.


Wikileaks says it has only downloaded around 600 of the 250,000 documents it has in its possession. It also says it has material on Bank of American potentially opening up the world of Finance capital to the gaze of anybody on the Internet. If this is to happen along with opening the diplomatic and military correspondence that is already coming out capitalism will be in an even greater crisis. Because do not be fooled. In its media it talks about diplomatic cables and correspondence but much of these are military and violent dirty tricks of one kind or another. See where the Saudi stooge, George Bush's great friend, asked the US to militarily attack Iran. By the way in the last days a number of Iranian nuclear scientists have been blown up in car bombs with one killed. Who did this? It sure was not wikileaks

See what the Wall Street Journal says should be done about wikileaks. "We should think of cyberattacks as guided missiles and respond similarly - intercept them and retaliate." That is the people who launch cyberattacks should be killed. This is what is being said. It goes on further about what has to be done to defend US capitalism against cyberattacks. "The task is of such a scale that it needs nothing less than a souped up Manhattan project." (that is like the project that built the bomb in the post world war two era). The Wall Street Journal continues in panic stricken tones:"Our vulnerabilities are increasing exponentially. Cyberterrorism poses a threat equal to that of weapons of mass destruction. A large scale attack could create an unimaginable degree of chaos in America."

These statements from the Wall Street Journal, the main mouthpiece of US capitalism, shows that we who run this blog have not been exaggerating. US capitalism has been seriously shaken by the wikileaks exposures but even more so it is very very worried about what might still be there to be exposed. It sees the situation as demanding war against people who leak material. We on this blog are right to call for a Hands Off wikileaks campaign.

I pose a few questions above. US capitalism and its allies are continually talking about war against Iran, Iranian scientists are being murdered. Who is doing this? We hold no brief for the backward reactionary capitalist regime in Iran. We are opposed to it and stand for the Iranian working class and a democratic socialist Iran and a democratic socialist Middle East. But we are not blind to what is going on. The US backs Israel's huge stockpile of nuclear weapons in the area and backs it in its wars and its crushing of the Palestinian people's rights. In the meantime it threatens war against Iran. And it backs all the reactionary Arab regimes against their own working classes. It is the inevitable complications of capitalism such as these that arise out of its class rule and its plundering and exploitation that are threatening to come out through wikileaks and which worry capitalism. By the way we should also note that the emerging elite in China are extremely worried about wikileaksand what it can do to its vicious internal authoritarian regime.

As we have said before on this blog. Capitalism is in continual conflict with its own working class and the working class in general. It is also in continual conflict with other capitalist classes. It is a system of conflict. Capitalist diplomacy has the task of trying to hide this and keep things from blowing apart altogether. It cannot speak openly and honestly or the objective reality of their insane system will be exposed for all to see. This is why they are so enraged with and opposed to wikileaks exposures. These threaten to expose their entire rotten system. This is why it calls for the violent action it does against cyberattacks. I have already quoted above from the Wall Street Journal where they say: "We should think of cyberattacks as guided missiles and respond similarly - intercept them and retaliate." Think about this and capitalist diplomacy. They are saying here in their lying diplomatic language that people who launch cyberattacks on the US should be killed. Is this not how they would respond to guided missile attacks. But they do not want to say this absolutely directly as it would begin to make things too clear. Better to hide behind their sneaky words which their own class understands but which they can use to try and hide the reality from the working class people.

#Hands Off Wikileaks. Release the soldier charged with providing the documents and drop all charges. Build a Hands of Wikileaks Movement in the workplaces, unions, schools, colleges and neighborhoods.
#Boycott all organizations, such as Amazon and Paypal which have taken action against Wikileaks.
#Respond to the call to store as much of the Wikileaks material as possible so this will be available if what wikileaks has is destroyed on their own sites or where they have it stored.
