Wikileaks is a leak website, better known than the older Cryptome. WikiLeaks has released millions of secret documents from countries around the world. Most are easily available on the Wikileaks site and make it a gold-mine of information for journalists working on stories that are crying out for public scrutiny.[2] The media reaction towards Wikileaks has not been unified throughout the years.
By the end of 2022, several archives on the Wikileaks-website have become unaccessible.[3]
History
Julian Assange, stated in 2006 that Wikileaks had already "received over one million documents from 13 countries". In 2010, the New Yorker and then Wired claimed that these documents were not knowingly leaked, but had been captured by Assange's running a modified Tor exit node.[4][5] Asked to clarify whether this claim was true by The Register, Assange denied it, stating that "The imputation is incorrect. The facts concern a 2006 investigation into Chinese espionage one of our contacts were involved in. Somewhere between none and handful of those documents were ever released on WikiLeaks. Non-government targets of the Chinese espionage, such as Tibetan associations were informed (by us)."[6]

Some leaks released by Wikileaks have garnered worldwide attention. Noticeable examples include:
- CIA project to bolster European support for the Afghan War
- The "Collateral Murder" video
- The "Afghan War Diary" reports
- Vault 7
By October 2017 a US Senate was debated that contains a section that if passed would designate WikiLeaks and Julian Assange as a “non-state hostile intelligence service.”[7]
September 11th, 2001
In November 2009, Wikileaks published around 500,000 pager messages - 29 hours worth, from 5 hours before the first 9-11 attacks to 24 hours after. Little significant evidence was found among them to contradict the US government's official narrative.[8] In July 2010, Assange commented about 9-11 that "I'm constantly annoyed that people are distracted by false conspiracies such as 9/11, when all around we provide evidence of real conspiracies, for war or mass financial fraud."[9] Unwelcome Guests has cited this quotation as evidence that Wikileaks is a modified limited hangout,[10] Webster Tarpley has voiced similar criticism.

Wikispooks Acknowledgement
WikiLeaks was a major source of content and inspiration when setting up Wikispooks. It remains a recommended site when researching Wikispooks articles, although the following caveat should be born in mind:
ANY web site seen as potentially subversive to established authority and the official narrative, will quickly attract the attention of the SIS's once its readership and apparent influence reaches a certain threshold. Such attention can take many forms but will likely start with simple monitoring, before progressing through attempts at infiltration and/or co-option and the planting of information, to other less subtle forms of the spy's tradecraft, should they become necessary in pursuit of Establishment hidden agendas.
Commentary about Wikileaks
In the 2010 period, after the release of the Afghan War Diaries, several commentators started to voice their opinion about the leaks and Wikileaks as an organisation. The commentary ranged from broadly supportive to accusations of being an intelligence outfit for misdirection. Daniel Estulin wrote the book "Deconstructing Wikileaks" in 2012, which cites largely from Globalresearch articles in the 2010 period. Some of this commentary can also be found in the Document section below and here:

Background Information on Wikileaks
- This is an Ecosia search of the Cryptome site. Cryptome has the most detailed and insightful inside track on Wikileaks of pretty well any other source. John Young, its operator, was the original registrant of the Wikileaks domain name. He resigned from further involvement with Wikileaks over its fund-raising ambitions and the full story of those early days is available from the links produced by this search.

2010 United States diplomatic cables leak/Middle East | “You know better than I that we cannot deal with these people (the Guantanamo detainees). I can't detain them. If I take their passports, they will sue to get them back. I can talk to you into next week about building a rehabilitation center, but it won't happen. We are not Saudi Arabia; we cannot isolate these people in desert camps or somewhere on an island. We cannot compel them to stay. If they are rotten, they are rotten and the best thing to do is get rid of them. You picked them up in Afghanistan; you should drop them off in Afghanistan, in the middle of the war zone.” | 2010 |
Benjamin Netanyahu | “Benjamin Netanyahu is "elegant and charming", according to a cable apparently penned by an official at the U.S. embassy in Egypt, "but never keeps his promises".” | 2010 |

Whitney Webb | “Epstein was involved in a lot of things, and not only with underage females. Delving into all the publicly available material on Epstein, investigative journalist Whitney Webb needed two volumes to trace Epstein’s complex and mysterious career. She meticulously reconstructs the elaborate nebula of his connections to the world not just of finance, but also of espionage and crime. Her two volumes were published last year with the title, “One Nation Under Blackmail.”
Given all the chatter the WSJ’s articles have generated, at breakfast this morning I thought it appropriate to raise the question not so much of Epstein’s story itself, but of the way the press responds to the public’s need for information. After reminding Chad of the context, I shared these thoughts with Chad. “The Journal appears to confirm, though only partially and obliquely, much of what Webb has described. Because of the implications — including the inevitable embarassment for people who have carefully crafted their public image of respectability — the Journal should either release the documents or, as Wikileaks was wont to do, share them with a number of serious newspapers to ensure a minimum level of objectivity and transparency. This story and all its implications are of vital interest to the public in a democracy. What, apart from the commercial interest of owning a scoop, explains the Wall Street Journal’s reluctance to do so?”” | Whitney Webb Peter Isackson | May 2023 |

Document:All Pretence is Over in Persecution of Assange | blog post | 14 February 2018 | Craig Murray | “Lady” Arbuthnot has perhaps performed an unwitting public service by the brazen nature of her partiality, which exposes beyond refutation the charade of legal process behind the effort to arrest Assange, in reality over the publication of USA secrets. |

Document:Assange Final Appeal Day 2 – Your Man in the Public Gallery | blog post | 29 February 2024 | Craig Murray | Initially US authorities were keen to downplay the possible sentence, but have radically changed tack and now emphasise 30 to 40 years as the norm, which is in effect a rest of life sentence. That shift, together with the refusal so far to rule out the death penalty, gives a measure of the ruthlessness with which the CIA is pursuing the extradition of Julian Assange. |
Document:Assange Final Appeal – Your Man in the Public Gallery | blog post | 21 February 2024 | Craig Murray | The indictment describes Wikileaks as a “non-state hostile intelligence agency”. That was plainly an accusation of espionage. This is self-evidently a politically motivated prosecution for a political offence. |

Document:Council of Europe sides with Julian Assange | Article | Sara Chessa | The attitude of European institutions is changing after years of silence which seemed to authorise or support the US and the United Kingdom’s behaviour in relation to an individual who is apparently deprived of the right to prepare his defence and deprived as well of his right to dignified psychophysical conditions. Now, the Council of Europe has decided to speak up on behalf of Julian Assange. | |

Document:Craig Murray’s jailing is the latest move in a battle to snuff out independent journalism | blog post | 30 July 2021 | Jonathan Cook | Assange and Murray are not only telling us troubling truths we are not supposed to hear. The fact that they are being denied solidarity by those who are their colleagues, those who may be next in the firing line, tells us everything we need to know about the so-called mainstream media: that the role of corporate journalists is to serve establishment interests, not challenge them. |

But if he really WERE a Russian intelligence asset... well, then it all makes sense." - except that what it really makes is nonsense. |

I fear that unless norm-setting institutions like PACE wake up to the gravity of the situation it will be too late. Let us all commit to doing our part to ensure that the light of freedom never dims, that the pursuit of truth will live on, and that the voices of the many are not silenced by the interests of the few." |
Document:Julian Assange to make final appeal in extradition case | Article | 9 June 2023 | Mark Lowe | According to RSF, the upcoming appeal represents Assange’s final opportunity to contest extradition within the UK, unless he decides to bring his case to the European Court of Human Rights. |
Document:Media silent on dismissal of DNC suit against Julian Assange | Article | 2 August 2019 | Oscar Grenfell | Judge Koeltl further undermined the claims of the Trump administration, the Democrats and the media that Julian Assange is a “hacker,” undeserving of First Amendment protections. In other words, the attempt to extradite Assange to the US and prosecute him is a frontal assault on the US Constitution and press freedom. |
