".. you can speak freely.. unless you speak against me .. "
That defines the limits of "freedome of speach " in US..

“al-Awlaki is the most dangerous ideologue in the world. 

Unlike bin Laden and al-Zawahiri, he doesn’t need subtitles

 on his videos to indoctrinate and influence young people in the West."

In early 2010, with President Obama's approval, Anwar al-Awlaki became the first U.S. citizen to be approved for targeted killing by the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). Targeted killing is the targeting and killing by a government or its agents of a civilian or "unlawful combatant" who is not in that government's custody. The target is a person taking part in an armed conflict or terrorism, whether by bearing arms or otherwise, who has thereby lost the immunity from being targeted. In July 2010, his father, Nasser al-Aulaqi, contracted the Center for Constitutional Rights and the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) to represent his son in a lawsuit which seeks to remove Anwar from the targeted killing list.

WikiLeaks is an international organization that publishes submissions of otherwise unavailable documents from anonymous sources and leaks. Its website, launched in 2006, is run by The Sunshine Press.^[1] Within a year of its launch, the site claimed a database that had grown to more than 1.2 million documents.

The organization has described itself as having been founded by Chinese dissidents, as well as journalists, mathematicians, and start-up company technologists from the U.S., Taiwan, Europe, Australia, and South Africa.^[1] Newspaper articles and The New Yorker magazine (June 7, 2010) describe Julian Assange, an Australian journalist and Internet activist, as its director.^[4]

WikiLeaks has won a number of awards, including the 2008 Economist magazine New Media Award.^[5] In June 2009, WikiLeaks and Julian Assange won Amnesty International's UK Media Award (in the category "New Media") for the 2008 publication of "Kenya: The Cry of Blood – Extra Judicial Killings and Disappearances",^[6]a report by the Kenya National Commission on Human Rights about police killings in Kenya.^[7] In May 2010, the New York Daily News listed WikiLeaks first in a ranking of "websites that could totally change the news".^[8]

In April 2010, WikiLeaks posted video from a 2007 incident in which Iraqi civilians were killed by U.S. forces, on a website called Collateral Murder. In July of the same year, WikiLeaks released Afghan War Diary, a compilation of more than 76,900 documents about the War in Afghanistan not previously available for public review.^[9] In October the group released a package of almost 400,000 documents called the Iraq War Logs in coordination with major commercial media organisations.
