That is a very good point, Its the countries that always go on about how free they are that are the ones trying to close it down.
And the countries that are often portrayed in the Western media as being unfree as the ones that have no problem with Wikileaks being accessable in their country.

Heres an interesting example in Pakistan...."Justice Sheikh Azmat Saeed of the Lahore High Court (LHC) on Friday dismissed a petition seeking ban on access to website WikiLeaks.

The judge declared the petition non-maintainable as access to information was the fundamental right of every citizen."....http://www.dailytimes.com.pk/?page=2...-12-2010_pg1_6

So we now have a situation where Wikileaks is openly available in Iran, Syria, Russia, Venezuela, Brazil, Pakistan and others......while the self proclaimed free world like the United States is doing everything it can to shut it down, threaten to jail people for reading it and threatening anyone who hosts it.
