It is amazing to realize the degree of freedom currently enjoyed by civilians within the US. The disparity between freedom in the US and other countries is quite amazing. Wikileaks, website run by civilians, has the freedom to post confidential documents, without being prosecuted for their origin or sources. It is pretty amazing! In most countries with very democracies which are in fact more of dictatorships will have had these individuals executed or something similar, all this "legally" of course.
In one of their most recent post, they accused Vladimir Putin of being batman over the current president. It is amazing that individuals are let to make such comments and post that can bring about extreme diplomatic ramifications between foreign countries and the US and nothing is done to stop them in the name of freedom of expression. The US government has it's such comings, but when it comes to rights, especially freedom, it is applied to the letter, up to an including total disregard of diplomatic consequences.
