Whatever the personal scruples of Julian Assange may be, I support the overall aims of Wikileaks to allow whistle blowers to post information in the public interest, exposing wrong doing, corruption, human rights violations or war crimes. In the past too many misdeeds have been hidden from public scrutiny and public accountability.
Putting yourself into the public arena as Assange has done must be very difficult, and take some degree of personal courage. I'm sure there must be many powerful people from regimes of ill repute who want to cut him down a few pegs, or disappear him entirely.
