The leaking of a draft of an international Trade in Service Agreement (TISA) by WikiLeaks is getting press.
The agreement would allow service-based companies — which include insurance, audiovisual, financial, information technology, express deliver and telecommunication firms — greater access to customers in other nations.
This would be especially helpful to American firms.
WikiLeaks, the site founded by America-hating-whackjob Julian Paul Assange, is quite angry about the agreement and is crying conspiracy.
A couple of questions to ponder:
When are drafts of agreements ever released to the public?
Why if it is such a big secret was the U.S. Chamber of Commerce praising the plan in a press release four months ago?
WikiLeaks can be described as a site dedicated to the selective leaking of documents designed to make the United States look bad. It has but 225 pages related to the People’s Republic of China, that bastion of sweetness and light, versus 9,720 pages to items the United States would have preferred to have been kept under wraps.
By the way, most of the PRC stuff was leaked from the U.S.
For the conspiracy minded, WikiLeak’s TISA leak was done on June 19 and can be found here.
