In response to 9/11, it took ten years, hundreds of thousands killed in Iraq and Afghanistan, trillions of dollars, to track down and eliminate a single man. Now we've killed him. Time to bring the troops home.

The west wildly overstated the reach and capability of al-Qaida to create myths on the back of which we've had the phoney "war on terror", mass slaughter in Afghanistan and Iraq, and attacks on our civil liberties.

In 2007, Barack Obama said, "Whistleblowers are part of a healthy democracy." Today he presides over Bradley Manning's torture.

Data collection for the UK census on 27 March has been contracted to American arms giant Lockheed Martin, one of the world's largest arms producers, with over £33 billion worth of arms sales in 2009.

An extended interview with Julian Assange was recorded during filming of John Pilger's latest film The War You Don't See.

US is failing to crush alleged Wikileaks' source, even after seven months solitary confinement under barbaric conditions.
