Reexamining democracy

Tibor R. Machan A Passion for Liberty
by Tibor R. Machan

01/03/11

Over the last several decades of American political life the idea of liberty has taken a back seat to that of democracy. Liberty involves human beings governing themselves, being sovereign citizens, while democracy is a method by which decisions are reached within groups. In a just society it is liberty that is primary -- the entire point of law is to secure liberty for everyone, to make sure that the rights of individuals to their lives, liberty and pursuit of happiness is protected from any human agent bent on violating them. Democracy is but a byproduct of liberty...

Six by Twelve

For over six months Bradley Manning has spent twenty three hours a day in solitary confinement in a six by 12 foot cell, under unrelenting lights, with neither pillow nor sheet, waiting to be tried. Is the US government attempting to compel Manning to make possible false confessions that would implicate Julian Assange and WikiLeaks?

Puncturing the baloon of ?state secrets?

CounterPunch
by Patrick Cockburn

01/03/11

One of the more satisfactory aspects of being a journalist is the discovery that the powerful are hyper-sensitive to any revelation about their activities. The degree of venom and hysteria expressed by the US government in attacking Julian Assange and WikiLeaks reflects this acute sense of vulnerability...

Why WikiLeaks leaks matter

Future of Freedom Foundation Future of Freedom Foundation
by Sheldon Richman

01/03/11

Why should anyone care about the secret diplomatic cables WikiLeaks has disclosed? So what if State Department bureaucrats say unflattering things about other world 'leaders?' Some people may be asking those questions in response to WikiLeaks?s latest disclosures. Okay, they say, leaks about atrocities on the battlefield (such as the first WikiLeaks disclosure, the 'Collateral Murder' video) tell us something we should know about ? the gross misconduct by U.S. military forces, condoned by the command all the way up to the president of the United States. But diplomatic cables? Who cares?
