Julian Assange says WikiLeaks is not concerned whether or not the sensitive documents it leaks pose a threat to U.S. national security. "States have national security concerns, we do not," says Assange. "We have concern for human beings."

Following the release of more than 90,000 classified military documents on whistle-blowing site Wikileaks, founder Julian Assange took part in a special event at the Frontline Club.

Assange talks about the impact of the documents that were released in partnership with The Guardian, The New York Times and German paper Der Spiegel which chronicle in minute detail U.S. military operations in the country between 2004 and 2010.

He also discusses the journalistic implications of the way the information has been released as well as talks through the possibilities for journalists and citizens using the vast amount of data available online. - Frontline Club

  • Assange didn't say "he wasn't concerned by America's National Security." The title of the video is skewed. I don't know how you got that title. I watched it twice waiting for that line and I saw the opposite.

  • I would just like to say this has been the most humble day of my life.

  • Assange is armed with the facts and basic human decency. We do not have to be geniuses like him and Brad Manning to figure out who our friends and enemies are.. Abused dogs do it. "Public servants" who claim to be doing what is best for everyone but secretly abuse us and others and hide the tragic consequences of their actions do not respect us. They are our worst enemies. Leak on, WikiLeaks!

  • Agreed

  • Assange worried about leaks at wikileaks....
