I have a bad feeling about this.

A rather more balanced and in-depth portrait of Julian Assange than you usually get in the media. "We have values. I am an information activist. You get the information out to the people.

Not content with just killing people in computer games, South Korea has gone one better and is deploying remotely controlled sentry robots on the border with the north.
