Why the US Declared War on Wikileaks: The Origin Story 

It is a double-edged sword, because you can't make your tactics public to the enemy. That's kind of just common sense. That said, as history has shown, humans cannot be trusted (especially your own government). There is just too much corruption and abuse of power. Complicated thing to sort out.

Same! The Trump-Kushner crime family made a lot of wealth while in the Whitehouse. Ivanka was a frequent flyer to China, supposedly buying up patents. What patents? Who owns them, the taxpayers? We actually funded their criminal activity. Prove me wrong. Bring the receipts!

The American sense of superiority is fully on display here. They are fed propaganda from their first day of school and end up believing they live in the best country on Earth. That's dangerous. I married a yank. You can't converse with them if you try and make them see the truth. They are well and truly brainwashed. Even Tucker Carlson spews that BS. I see him in a different light now. Why call Julian a nerd?

I left you a comment which appears to have been deleted. I was agreeing with you and explained how Americans are brane wa$hed. That word may have been why.

He is a bully and a despicable creature.

I'm an Aussie and we don't use or even know your constitution but it helped Julian so alls good.

Valid.

That doesn't mean you shouldn't have an opinion. You don't understand the First Amendment.

@@robynliteracy7057 You want me to read the American Constitution or every country's Constitution? Have you read ours?

@@robynliteracy7057 I forgot to ask. Why do you think I need to understand something I'll never need?

People in power never do.

Thats funny because anyone with a brain will realize he is a GRU asset 🤡 Your hero and his wife have been getting kremlin funding for years.

hes a fckn plant so reres like you will latch on his mom has openly discussed being in MK ULTRA and how her son was too in a cult called "the family" in suburban sydney au. this was all declassified in 1997. but none of this fits in your BS narritive

He's home in Australia after making a deal with the US.

Vice doesn’t have staff to make new content anymore

even more interesting, they bring it out during an election year and try to use it to influence the election. And lets not forget to mention that wikileaks had a target put on their back by the "administration of transparency": the Obama Administration

​@kennyrussell8534 yeah but don't forget Australia system is puppet of American corrupt system! He's not on safe land. Btw it's something we all should worry about! Where's our freedom of rights going now days?

@@b3z3jm3nny that only applied to it's website they're moving fully to RU-vid

If they're being exposed for it, someone would end up taking the blame for it.

@@andy56duky Yes, that would be Julian.

@@KlausBahnhof Are you calling Julian a criminal or a patsy?

@@Ellie-kb6zl Definitely the latter.

@@KlausBahnhof Thank you and I agree. I don't think this is over.

@@sauce4137 yup. He exposed the United snakes of America

No He was working for the Bear and poked the Eagle 😂😂😂

@@RussianShill god you're cringe

He got f**ked by the bear - the Russian Bear :D He hosted a show on Russia Today, a Kremlin-controlled TV channel.

@@RussianShill All these years of "Russian spy" accusations and yet not a single piece of evidence has ever been produced in support. Do you still believe in the Tooth Fairy as well?

all governments commit war crimes what does this even mean

Most likely terrorism

Well given a large number what a FELON as president I'd say crimes are gonna be common place....

Since 9/11, they're holding no punches. They pulled out all the stops.

@@ROBLOXGamingDavidnot really , the US military could have wrapped that all up in months if not weeks if their hands weren’t tied

Amen.

The whole internet is usa. It's not a gift. Collecting our opinions. Trouble makers will be dealt with.

Not if you’re a cr*m*nally complicit fedbot.

Yeah, that guy's an absolute creeper in every way. Nor does he look too formidable. I don't know what kind of brainpower goes into typical US Army 'psyops', but that dude doesn't seem like he'd be too hard to figure out, or pit wits against....

Vice is bourgeoisie media

because they fired all their staff for trying to unionize and have no employees left to make actual content

Julian Assange is home in Australia after plea deal with US?? It makes ALL the sense?

I heard they're going bankrupt due to them having all these "woke" videos now that no one actually watches.

why are you complaining that they are releasing the content for free now on youtube? before it was behind it's own streaming platform on vice tv which is soft pay walled if you dont have tv and just internet.

Yeah, us American CITIZENS are anti-corruption and are for the truth!! It's the American GOVERNMENT and the deep state that are corrupt. BIG difference!!!!

The issue with the U.S. is that we literally began as treasonous, violent, freedom-screaming rebels (or "terrorists" now). The only reason this country exists right now is because people literally waged bloody war against the government in charge at the time. People seem to completely whoosh on this these days, and they think everything should just be handled peacefully through the same system that keeps people fucked. I'm not saying things like MAGA and raiding the capitol are in that same vein (those were horribly misguided), but it does seem fascinating to me how complacent and docile people are now in fighting back against tyranny, corruption, corporate dystopia, etc.

The date is in the description…”originally aired 2017.”

@@SurfLife4me It's also at the beginning of the video; some people are so dumb.

freedom of speech and revealing military private information are two different things

@@ThugDollXO Wait are you BLACK defending your white master?

That's by design. Those in power are intelligent and have ALL the power. Everyone else they keep uneducated, bickering, divided, and clueless.

look them up on google

Surprised?

It isn't really though. It's trying to present an objective look at the issue. Journalism is just that. Journalism. If Wikileaks politicises their content, then they are propagandists too.

.... do you know what the word propaganda means?

"I wonder WHY That is??" - In regards to no reference to democracy? That's pretty easy to answer & is likely best explained by using the notes of what James Madison said at one point during the Constitutional Convention. From James Madison's own notes going over what he said: "... In all civilized Countries the people fall into different classes having a real or supposed difference of interests. There will be creditors & debtors, farmers, merchants & manufacturers. There will be particularly the distinction of rich & poor. It was true as had been observed. (by Mr. Pinkney) we had not among us those hereditary distinctions, of rank which were a great source of the contests in the ancient Governments as well as the modern States of Europe, nor those extremes of wealth or poverty which characterize the latter. We cannot however be regarded even at this time, as one homogeneous mass, in which every thing that affects a part will affect in the same manner the whole. In framing a system which we wish to last for ages, we should not lose sight of the changes which ages will produce. *An increase of population will of necessity increase the proportion of those who will labor under all the hardships of life, & secretly sigh for a more equal distribution of its blessings.* These may in time outnumber those who are placed above the feelings of indigence. According to the equal laws of suffrage, the power will slide into the hands of the former. No agrarian attempts have yet been made in this Country, but symptoms, of a leveling spirit, as we have understood, have sufficiently appeared in a certain quarters to give notice of the future danger. ..." Or in Robert Yates notes of what Madison said at that time: "... Such are the various pursuits of this life, that in all civilized countries, the interest of a community will be divided. There will be debtors and creditors, and an unequal possession of property, and hence arises different views and different objects in government. ... The landed interest, at present, is prevalent; but in process of time, when we approximate to the states and kingdoms of Europe; when the number of landholders shall be comparatively small, through the various means of trade and manufactures, will not the landed interest be overbalanced in future elections, and unless wisely provided against, what will become of your government? In England, at this day, if elections were open to all classes of people, the property of the landed proprietors would be insecure. An agrarian law would soon take place. If these observations be just, our government ought to secure the permanent interests of the country against innovation. Landholders ought to have a share in the government, to support these invaluable interests and to balance and check the other. They ought to be so constituted as to protect the minority of the opulent against the majority. ..." Or from John Lansing's notes of what Madison said at that time: "The Advantages of Government cannot be extended equally to all ... Distinctions will always exist-that of Debtor and Creditor-Property had made Distinctions in Europe before a Nobility was created-Inequality of Property will produce the same Distinctions here ..."

VICE News receives funding from various sources, Soros Fund Management and the Saudi-owned MBC Group, which led to internal controversy at the channel due to the need to censor critical content about Saudi Arabia, Saudi Arabia is trying to strengthen its ties with countries like China and Russia, which are hostile to the United States.

Doesn't matter.

ahaa spot on!

Yeah. It's not black and white, tho. Nuance.

Btw, i thumbs upped your comment. People who make intelligent comments are not in over-abundance here. Thanks.

Yes originally aired in 2017.

All current VICE uploads are reposts. In each description it is stated in which year the docu was initially aired.

bro, 1 second into the video and it says "This episode of Cyberwar originally aired in 2017." Are you a comment bot or did you actually just comment without even watching the first second of the video?

@naxaroo I was passively watching this. Not fully immersed. I asked a question and it got answered without issue. Not everything needs to be drama dude.

@@GerardoGart you aren't even passively watching lol. its literally the FIRST frame you see. like how are you even able to press play and miss the answer to your question literally ONE second into the video, and already be in the comment section to ask if it was a repost? its actually not even 1 second into the video. do you need to be hand fed an answer that is given to you immediately when you press play? and i know its not drama. im just in utter disbelief that someone is actually asking a question that is answered the moment you hit the play button.

It’s a water bottle you get in all decent restaurants where this is being recorded you pleb lol 😆

yer I bet. Not to mention the 300k innocent Iraqi civilians you killed that had nothing to do with 9/11.

Okay Ivankovich

@@BonShula lol thank you, it's been a while

Ah haven't been paying attention? Assange was a GRU asset 100% he was the vanguard. Just like Smirnoff he served his purpose. His wife and him have been getting funding from oligarchs the whole time.

​@@cmbcooMe too. It's a real wakeup call that America is no longer a Democracy.

He’s got blackmail documents on some very powerful ppl who don’t want their secrets getting out as it would devastate them and the public

@@poindextertunes Some pain compliance could fix that.

He probably got a job with Vice right after that interview with them... and was one of the many at Vice that turned Vice into a Woke, Garbage media network that focused on Woke Agendas & Making Pegging Content... turning Vice into a shadow of it used to be🗑... and lead to it's downfall & bankruptcy. He probably also got a 2nd job as a "Fact Checker" too. Which is probably where all the Woke Agenda Employees of Vice went to work after they destroyed Vice.

😂😂😂 Q nonsense

Many hackers believe Assange was one of Putin's useful idiots.

I am posting this from Texas Oblast fellow American

Bro, where can i find the site/page? Dark web?

We did hear from both sides though? Like they interviewed people who are both pro-wikileaks and anti-wikileaks

and what about posting America's war crimes? Is that ok?

@@al9017asbsofuckinglutely. All war crimes should be exposed regardless of country
