In a Free Society, We Are Supposed to Know the Truth. In a Society Where Truth Becomes Treason, We Are In Big Trouble. Wikileaks and the Post-Cablegate Geopolitical Scene



Today the truth about the dominant policy of western and eastern, northern and southern governments alike became obvious. Societies are being manipulated, abused, deceived and ruled by dictatorship-oriented totalitarian governments, whether openly or disguised as democracies. The revealed diplomatic documents by Wikileaks were supposed to create outrage in leaders concerned and serve as an awakening slap in the face for all slumbering societies. Instead, the leaders are either silent or outraged in condemnation, not for the highly cynical US diplomacy and politics, but for the whistleblower themselves, who dared to expose the truth as it is.

So, there it is. The truth about the lies finally surfaced definitively. And the reaction of US and world governments proved what their true policy is. It is a policy of manipulation and deception, not one of truth and freedom. There is no democracy in our world, there is capitalism, communism, dictatorship and various hideous political mixes of those three.

Today's politics is a dirty game of propaganda and wealth-accumulation that has nothing to do with creating a better world for the average person. Governments work for corporations and not for the people. The only democratic element that blinds people into thinking they have power to choose – voting – is another deception, because political campaigns are sponsored by corporations, not tax-payer money, as people may think. And the source of the biggest propaganda and political hypocrisy in the world, it seems, is USA. The censorship there turns out to be rivaling that of China and old totalitarian regimes, like the USSR. Yet, the American public is turning a blind eye to all this, still believing they live in a free country. A willful ignorance, silently supporting its own slavery. But, do they have a choice? What can be done? Can anything be done at this point? Can people reclaim their true freedom? Are people able to tell apart freedom from enslavement at all?

"In a free society, we are supposed to know the truth. In a society where truth becomes treason, we are in big trouble" is a recent remark of Ron Paul regarding the unfolding events around the Wikileaks scandal. 
Congressman Ron Paul who had no chance of reaching the final rounds of the last presidential elections in USA, don't wonder why.

Governments and corporations take actions into closing down the whistleblower website. This act alone is quite evident as to the lack of true freedom in our modern "democratic" world. Some US politicians have even called for the assassination of WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, because he is such a treat for freedom and justice. We are witnessing live a huge censorship on truth and liberty in front of our eyes. An act, that some people thought unthinkable in western democratic societies.

About the leaked documents:

"The cables show the extent of US spying on its allies and the UN; turning a blind eye to corruption and human rights abuse in "client states"; backroom deals with supposedly neutral countries; lobbying for US corporations; and the measures US diplomats take to advance those who have access to them. This document release reveals the contradictions between the US’s public persona and what it says behind closed doors" 

Find the documents here, until this location lasts.

The truth is, we live in a deeply messed up world today, very much resembling scenarios like the ones portrayed in literature like "1984" and "Brave New World". And it is up to people, at large, to wake up and change the course of history. Together, united by reason, honesty, moral, solidarity and humanism. 


Here are two interesting articles surrounding the Wikileaks scandal:

Update:
There is also a section in their website keeping track of the newest released documents here


    "During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act
    George Orwell






    "None are more enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free
    Goethe



    "We live in a mentally challenged world" Oh, yeah, the blatantly obvious truth. One of the many.
