6 AnswersOther - Computers1 decade agoJust what are the Americans afraid of?
All this furore over Julian Assange letting the world know what the U.S. government has been doing in their name? I think the U.S. and their close partners, the U.K., have an awful lot of things they want to keep quiet. So when a man sets up a website to show what the government has officially been doing they go into overdrive to silence him. There's something seriously wrong there.

1 AnswerSecurity1 decade agoIn the U.S. is incitement to hatred not a crime?
The American pastor, Terry Jones, is obviously trying to incite hatred against muslims with his "gimmicky" idea of burning the Korans. Does his church not agree with Christ's message of Love and Forgiveness? What happened at the Twin Towers on September 11, 2001, was an evil, vile act that should never be forgotten. But stirring up more hatred by insulting all muslims is not the way to remember those who died.
