Maybe you like what Wikileaks has done, but if a group solicits and then publishes huge troves of your nation's secrets, it's kind of hard to distinguish the group's actions from those of a hostile foreign power. I used to be a fan myself, but nowadays I can't figure out why Americans don't all consider Assange to be either a malicious spy or a malicious insurgency. They're definitely not on the USA government's side, and it's not clear to me that they're on my side, either, but they're definitely on some side, and they are on the attack.
