Bullshit. Stolen property does not become "not stolen" merely if you hand it off to someone else.
is this a matter of wikileaks taking a facillitator position with the material, rather than a direct conspirator? do they have freedom of the press in such a matter? if so, would that freedom protect them from endictments of espionage?
Exactly the dilemma we will be faced with.
We need to be careful here.
It may change the entire freedom of speech thing....it is not so cut and dry.
Next, there will be reason to shut down Glen Beck as some will claim his approach can be damaging to the US.
And then maybe during a republican administration Rachel Maddow is next?
looking into it as above i dont think it is nearly as dicey an issue. specifically since we are at war (is that official for these purposes without a declaration as such?)
