Wiki leaks has been under sustained attack ever since it announced its intention to publish damning details about the Turkish government.
The none profit site Wiki leaks announced on Monday that it would release over 100 k documents in the Turkish government, and told it’s audience “to get ready for a fight”, claiming that the Turkish government will attempt to censor their material and prevent Turkish citizens from reading the material, but encouraged citizens to bypass those censors and help spread the information instead.
The whistle-blowing organisation claims to have 300,000 emails and 500,000 documents it intends to expose about the political power structure of Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s government leading up to the failed attempted coup of last week.
However, the organisation today announced that its infrastructure has been under sustained cyber attack, but said it was unsure if the precise source of those attacks. They said it suggests it us from the Turkish government or its allies.

Over 265 people died in the bloody uprising in which the Turkish Parliament was bombed and the President sent into hiding.
Following the mayhem, 8,000 police officers have been arrested, and over 3,000 from the judiciary were detained in the wake of the plot.
The sheer scale of the arrests that included highly respected members of the judiciary was suspicious from the moment it was made known. It isn’t hard to smell a rat when right up your nose, is it?

If so many members of the judiciary are in collusion with an uprising against the government, it says something about that government.
Besides, it remains questionable how the Turkish government managed to ascertain the guilt of thousands of officers and judges in such a short time.
If Wikileaks have factual and credible information evidencing corruption on a mass scale of the government, them good on them.
Let’s see those documents. Governments of all countries have a duty to set good examples, not break the same law they use to.
