What is the latest from Wikileaks ?
My son was just here and he was telling me Wikileaks is fighting back against the possible extradition by threatening to release a new pile of documents

Said Wikileaks was categorizing the new revelations as "Being damaging enough to bring about the downfall of governments"

I'm not seeing these new revelations in my google searches

5. My son is ussually pretty much on target
He told no more then 2 hours ago there is a fresh batch of file dump they are holding over the head of several governments in a threatening manor to avoid prosecution/extradition

One could only hope the stench would lead to George Bush

7. It may be in reference to the Insurance.aes256 file released some time ago by...
...WikiLeaks and which still has not been decrypted. Other than that, I haven't heard of anything that I can think of.

8. Silly question: If I go there, will I end up on a watch list that I'm not already on?
I'm really curious about it, but I've steered clear of the site.

10. You think so? I think not.
DU isn't that interesting to the watchers, to be quite frank.
