Julian Assange, the founder of Wikileaks, was arrested on Monday in London from several sexual charges. The United States and several other countries have been angry at Wikileaks posts for giving out confidential information dealing with their national security.

What is your opinion about this? Should Wikileaks be shut down or should it be allowed to give out all this information?
In my opinion, this information should be taken down. This website gives out information that can jeopardize our national security. Although I believe that freedom of speech is a right, giving out information that can hurt the people of our country should not be given out at all.

A New Arms Race
Today we heard in class that President Medvedev of Russia predicted that there would be a new "Arms Race" if the United States and Russia did not sign a weapon pact.
What do you think about his? I think that we need to sign an arms pact with Russia but it should not be our highest priority. I think that this is a very important pact that needs to be made between the United States and Russia. We do not want to have another Cold War. We need to continue to gain in our technology like we always have but not to have Super Powers displaying their strength by seeing who can create the most deadly weapon and who can have the most of it.
