But our publications have been far from unimportant. The US diplomatic cables reveal some startling facts: |
然而,這并不意味著我們公布的信息不重要。美國(guó)外交電報(bào)向我們揭露了眾多令人震驚的事實(shí): |
? The US asked its diplomats to steal personal human material and information from UN officials and human rights groups, including DNA, fingerprints, iris scans, credit card numbers, internet passwords and ID photos, in violation of international treaties. Presumably Australian UN diplomats may be targeted, too. |
? 美國(guó)違法了國(guó)際條約,要求其外交官竊取聯(lián)合國(guó)和人權(quán)組織官員的個(gè)人材料和信息,包括DNA、指紋、虹膜掃描、信用卡號(hào)碼、網(wǎng)絡(luò)密碼和身份證照片等。澳大利亞駐聯(lián)合國(guó)官員可能也被美國(guó)外交官當(dāng)做竊取目標(biāo)。 |
? King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia asked the US to attack Iran. |
? 沙特阿拉伯國(guó)王阿卜杜拉請(qǐng)求美國(guó)攻擊伊朗。 |
? Officials in Jordan and Bahrain want Iran's nuclear program stopped by any means available. |
? 約旦和巴林官員希望以任何可能的方式停止伊朗的核計(jì)劃。 |
? Britain's Iraq inquiry was fixed to protect "US interests". |
? 英國(guó)的伊拉克戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)調(diào)查計(jì)劃要求必須保護(hù)“美國(guó)的利益”。 |
? Sweden is a covert member of NATO and US intelligence sharing is kept from parliament. |
? 瑞典是北約的隱藏成員國(guó),并且在國(guó)會(huì)不知情的情況下和美國(guó)進(jìn)行著情報(bào)共享。 |
? The US is playing hardball to get other countries to take freed detainees from Guantanamo Bay. Barack Obama agreed to meet the Slovenian President only if Slovenia took a prisoner. Our Pacific neighbour Kiribati was offered millions of dollars to accept detainees. |
? 美國(guó)正在要求其他國(guó)家接收關(guān)塔那摩監(jiān)獄釋放出來(lái)的囚犯。奧巴馬甚至表態(tài),除非斯洛伐尼亞愿意接收一名囚犯,否則不會(huì)會(huì)見(jiàn)斯洛伐尼亞總統(tǒng)。美國(guó)還曾提出給澳大利亞鄰國(guó)基里巴斯數(shù)百萬(wàn)美元,要求其接收關(guān)塔那摩關(guān)押的囚犯。 |
In its landmark ruling in the Pentagon Papers case, the US Supreme Court said "only a free and unrestrained press can effectively expose deception in government". The swirling storm around WikiLeaks today reinforces the need to defend the right of all media to reveal the truth.

在1967年的“五角大樓文件”一案中,美國(guó)最高法院曾說(shuō)過(guò),“只有一個(gè)自由和不受限制的媒體環(huán)境,才能有效拆穿政府的謊言”。維基解密今天所陷入的漩渦風(fēng)暴,恰恰再次表明了捍衛(wèi)媒體報(bào)道真相的權(quán)利的必要性。
