US Calls Julian Assange 'Enemy Of State'"The US military has designated Julian Assange and WikiLeaks as enemies of the United States - the same legal category as the al-Qaeda terrorist network and the Taliban insurgency. Declassified US Air Force counter-intelligence documents, released under US freedom-of-information laws, reveal that military personnel who contact WikiLeaks or WikiLeaks supporters may be at risk of being charged with "communicating with the enemy", a military crime that carries a maximum sentence of death. The documents, some originally classified "Secret/NoForn" - not releasable to non-US nationals - record a probe by the air force's Office of Special Investigations into a cyber systems analyst based in Britain who allegedly expressed support for WikiLeaks and attended pro-Assange demonstrations in London...".* The Young Turks host Cenk Uygur breaks it down.

Sensitive US files unguarded in Libya embassy: report
WASHINGTON â€" A trove of documents, including travel plans and security contracts, lay unguarded at what remains of the American consulate in Benghazi, said a reporter who entered the building on Wednesday.
A Washington Post journalist discovered the papers after he gained access to the diplomatic mission where US ambassador Chris Stevens was killed in the eastern Libyan city, and the newspaper displayed some of them on its website.
Among hundreds of scattered documents was a purported contract to provide security at the embassy, naming the provider as Blue Mountain Libya.
"The amount of 5.21 LYD will be paid per hour (8 hour shift) for the duration of the employees employment with the Company," it said, citing an amount that represents slightly more than $ 4 per hour.
Stevens was killed at the consulate on September 11 and among documents that remain visible three weeks later are his schedule for the period of September 10 to 14, the Post reported.
Four weeks before the US elections on November 6 the Benghazi attack is a dominant theme of the campaign, as Republican opponents seek to make political capital out of it, alleging that there were serious security lapses.
The Post said that although the gates to the Benghazi compound were locked in the days that followed the attack, looters were able to roam in the initial aftermath and many other documents may have disappeared.
US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton pledged Wednesday to answer lingering questions about the incident, seeking to counter criticism from Republicans.
But she warned against snap judgments, despite the growing clamor for information about the attack in which three other Americans died alongside Stevens.
