WikiLeaks Founding

Way, way down in the article in today’s LA Times on the WikiLeaks controversy – In fact the last paragraph, contains:

“WikiLeaks was founded in 2006 to promote transparency, especially in nations ruled by repressive regimes. Its leaks have been controversial, including the tens of thousands of Pentagon documents on Afghanistan. U.S. authorities are investigating the unauthorized release but have yet to identify who passed the information to WikiLeaks.”

Which begs the obvious question:  Since the leaks started months ago, they have primarily if not exclusively embarrassed the United States – so does the WikiLeaks organization consider the United States under President Obama, one of the “nations ruled by repressive regimes?”
