Commentary from The Patriot Report:
Congressman Ron Paul took to the House floor Thursday night to defend those who speak (and print) the truth.

Ron Paul raises the following questions to consider:

1.) Do the American people deserve to know the truth regarding the ongoing war in Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan and Yemen?
2.) How can an Army Private gain access to so much secret information?
3.) Why is the hostility mostly directed at Assange, the publisher, and not our government’s failure to protect classified information?
4.) Are we getting our moneys worth from the $80,000,000,000 a year we spend in intelligence gathering?
5.) Which has resulted in the greatest number of death? Lying us into war or WikiLeaks’s revelations?
6.) If Assange can be convicted of a crime for publishing information he did not steal, what does this say for the future of the 1st Amendment and the the independence of the internet?
7.) Could it be that the real reason for the near universal attacks on WikiLeaks is more about secretly maintaining a seriously flawed foreign policy of empire than it is about national security?
8.) Is there not a huge difference between releasing secret information to help the enemy in the time of declared war (which is treason) and the releasing of information to expose our government lies that promote secret wars, death, and corruption?
9.) Was it not once considered patriotic to stand up to our government when it is wrong?
