Everything you need to know about bourgeois freedoms like "freedom of speech"

Remember how Ezra Levant is the great champion of free speech in Canada? How against the totalitarian forces of political correctness and human rights tribunals that Levant is a shining beacon to those of us for whom bigotry--and more importantly, the right to use that bigotry to advance our careers and bolster our bank accounts--is as important as breathing?

Here is Levant's spirited defence of freedom in the wikileaks case:

Why is Assange still alive? Why is he being treated as a journalist or political activist? If someone had published the intimate details of the D-Day plans during the Second World War, he would never have been seen again.

Assange and his colleagues act like spies, not journalists. WikiLeaks could have its assets seized, just like the Taliban has. And U.S. President Barack Obama could do what he’s doing to the Taliban throughout the world.

He doesn’t sue them or catch them. He kills them. Because it’s war.

Obama has even ordered the assassination of an American citizen, Anwar al-Awlaki.

How does Obama see Assange any differently?

  2. Also amused to see that while the Swiss have no qualms with the Nazis or vile dictators like Mobutu, they will draw the line somewhere:

    And that Visa and Mastercard would rather deal with the KKK than Wikileaks:

    All very revealing.
