Leaking Empires

In continuation to; What happened to the mighty Empire?

Leaking or Bleeding?

The severity of the leaks (Wikileaks) for any government is proportional to the amounts of secrets they hold in their tank. Various governments’ efforts to stop it are also proportional to the sham that preceded it. It could be fraud against their ‘own’ people or conspiracies against the non obeying governments of other sovereign countries.

As long as you speak against each other, you can enjoy your freedom of speech. Me lord has no problems with that but if you dare to say anything against the mighty (Sovereign) governments, then you better run. Our lords (it could be O’Bama of the USA or Julia Gillard of Australia or even measly Sarah Palin) get upset with that. In olden days they could have hanged you in public. In not so old days, they could have assassinated you but we live in different times now. Super powers have to resort to sex assault charges to arrest a freelance journalist. They rate at which the might of these Empires is diminishing, don’t be surprised if next time they charge a journalist for unlawful parking, such as leaving the news radio on in the parked car.
