WikiLeaks founder and colleague nominated for Nobel peace prize
Wikileaks founder Julian Assange and his colleague Bradley
Manning have both been nominated for this year’s Nobel Peace Prize.
Assange & Manning both are under detention.
A wikileaks discussion forum website stated that, ‘The Nobel Peace
Prize nominees for 2011 recognize a number of activists, among them
Julian Assange, Bradley Manning, Wael Ghonim, Tunisian blogger Lina
Ben Mhenni, and Egyptian Israa Abdel Fattah together with the April
6 Youth Movement.”
Manning was a US army serviceman who allegedly leaked diplomatic
cables and video of a 2007 Apache helicopter attack to WikiLeaks.
He had access to SIPRNet and the Joint Worldwide Intelligence
Communications System from his workstation in Iraq. Assange, as
founder of WikiLeaks, took these documents—in addition to other
diplomatic cables and documents—and had published them on
WikiLeaks.
Wikileaks claimed the development to be a vindication of their
stand. It said that while a Nobel Peace Prize nomination might not
help Manning avoid prison time or get Assange released from house
arrest, it certainly is a form of vindication as many people across
the world admire their principled stand. Wikileaks forum on the
website further claims that, “If it had not been for WikiLeaks
publishing the leaked diplomatic cables, the Arab Spring might not
have been possible.”
Wikileaks further writes, “Even Retired U.S. Army Reserve Colonel
Ann Wright, in a recent Stars & Stripes editorial, has called
Wikileaks ‘a critically important tool for those who seek to uphold
basic human-rights standards and the professional conduct of U.S.
military forces."
