Wikileaks Anthem and Thomas Jefferson Quote

Were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without newspapers, or newspapers without a government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter. -Thomas Jefferson, 1787.

Wikileaks Anthem - Official Video by Isaac Sloan

Official Music Video for the song We Want the Truth by Isaac Sloan. http://www.isaacsloan.com



Its an anthem for the defenders of truth and a soundtrack for freedom of speech! Its a wake up call to the masters of war and a bane in the side of corruption. The truth will always prevail. Creative Commons license so use it however you wish. Let freedom ring through this anthem! Please tell everyone about this wikileaks song!

Its a protest song about wikileaks and the corrupt people trying to bring it down to hide their own criminal acts from the public eye. A song about what it means for freedom of speech, the press and the internet. A nation can't consider its self democratic when all important issues are labeled as "Top Secret" and never released to the public. Brave men and women risk their lives to keep our country safe and are rewarded by being sent to die in childish squabbles over seas. Is this right?

Bradley Manning released a video of apache helicopters gunning down civilians and laughing about it. It came to be know on the internet as "Collateral Murder". What he did was was illegal and now he's paying for it. But we should be asking ourselves why this video was marked top secret in the first place though. It didn't contain information crucial for the security of our nation but rather just evidence of war crimes. Should information like that be hidden from the public? How can we be expected to vote if we don't actually know what our government is doing? So lastly this is a song for Bradley Manning who lost the most for the truth! Free Bradley Manning!

Musicians:
Isaac Sloan - Guitar, Piano, Organ, Lyrics and Vocals
Edgar Campos - Bass and Lead Guitar

Lyrics

There was a man who wrote the truth
about governments and war
But the truth exposed the liers
for the criminals they were
We should hunt him down and murder him
Some like sarah palin swore

Then the credit cards and paypal
and webhosts joined the fight
But they only cared for money
Not free speech or peoples rights
So they choose to please the powerful
Instead of freedom, truth or light

[Chorus]
So come on anonymous
bring down the walls
When knowledge is free
Humanity can stand tall

Well they say that your a traitor
But you are a hero to me
You risked your life and liberty
So the truth could be free
I wish you luck bradley manning
You were braver than me

Brave men died for their country
but the leaders didn't care
In their twisted lies and war games
these deaths were more than fair
now there's a site call wikileaks
That puts these secrets out to air

[Chorus]

With Julian Assange in jail
some think the fight is lost
But we won't give up easily
We want the truth at any cost
Some scandals don't just go away
Dirty laundry can't be tossed

[Chorus]
