Wikileaks - Heroism or Cowardice?

Julian Assange of Wikileaks claims that all he does, he does for freedom. Many argue that this third release of American classified information is a strike for an open society and government accountability - and it may be. But there's no doubt that Assange and opportunists like him are eager to attack America because it's safe to do so - and those governments that are outright hostile to freedom get no such sunshine. Question - Is Julian Assange a hero or a coward?
