Flagging, because this leans much more political than technical. It's more about Michael Moore than anything else.

"[...]offering the assistance of my website, my servers, my domain names and anything else[...]" So, why doesn't he offer a mirror? His site is not listed on http://wikileaks.ch/mirrors.html

Because clearly this is a publicity stunt, otherwise he'd simply do it without feeling the need to write about it.

That was my impression, also. I'm not opposed to it though, as this will probably get picked up by the mainstream media which would do a lot more good than another mirror, IMO.

The offer of bail money is a bit pointless if the judge hasn't granted bail. I know he's appealing at the moment (I can hear the protesters from my office) but it will be interesting to see if MM puts his money where is mouth is.

So is this a further attempt to discredit Assange in the eyes of the rabid right in America?
