Reporters Jesper Huor and Bosse Lindquist have traveled to key countries where WikiLeaks operates, interviewing top members, such as Assange, new Spokesperson Kristinn Hrafnsson, as well as people like Daniel Domscheit-Berg who now is starting his own version – Openleaks.org.

Julian Assange’s speech from Oslo Freedom Forum 2010 in Norway.

We all only live once. So we are obligated to make good use of the time that we have and to do something that is meaningful and satisfying. This [WikiLeaks] is something that I find meaningful and satisfying. That is my temperament. I enjoy creating systems on a grand scale, and I enjoy helping people who are vulnerable. And I enjoy crushing bastards.

WikiLeaks.org is perhaps one of the most important websites on the Internet right now.

WikiLeaks is a multi-jurisdictional public service designed to protect whistleblowers, journalists and activists who have sensitive materials to communicate to the public. We believe that transparency in government activities leads to reduced corruption, better government and stronger democracies. All governments can benefit from increased scrutiny by the world community, as well as their own people. We believe this scrutiny requires information.

The site has posted tens of thousands of classified military field reports about the Afghanistan war today – a massive collection of over 91,000 reports written by soldiers and intelligence officers, mainly describing lethal military actions involving the United States military in Afghanistan from 2004 to 2010.
