re: #111 ozbloke

With what I have read about Assange, personally I wouldn’t want him to be deciding whats relevant.

Lots of questions can relate to either the moral aspect or legal aspect of a case. We are free to discuss whatever we want, no?

I don’t believe Assange’s morals regarding women will come into any trial on the wikileak cables.

Do I understand from your last sentence that no particular aspect of wikileaks can be discussed without discussing everything every time?

No, I’m not quite going there. When it comes to law we have to more specific. When it comes to the cheap satisfaction of irony anything goes! I just think you and I are on a different wavelengths regarding when/what to be specific about. Or, I’m taking the 25,000 foot view and you’re taking the 10K.

Assange’s morals regarding women may not be revealed during a cables release trial, and vica versa, but you never know what a lawyer may theorize and what a judge will allow to be brought up in trail. Add to that equation the laws (and maybe morals) of differing countries regarding differing crimes. My thought is the possibility is remote.

Blog rules are a lot more lax and yes, we can talk about what ever we want, moreso than in a court of law.
