Amazon is too good to host wikileaks. However they feel perfectly fine profiting off of the leaks.

LOL...

It makes sense.

Amazon wants to make money, not make a political statement.

and you can puchase that book with mastercard or visa.

The kicker is... the information is FREE. Amazon wants people to spend money on something they deemed "illegal".

This book contains commentary and analysis regarding recent WikiLeaks disclosures, not the original material disclosed via the WikiLeaks website.

They were selling the cables. They pulled them when the hypocrisy hit the headlines. But this seems to be something different.

And anybody with a premium account can add an item to the Amazon database. It's quite probable that the guy selling them created the listing and Amazon had nothing to do with it.

Anybody can sell anything on Amazon. This is just an e-book that somebody " created" and uploaded, probably to make amazon look bad.

That's third-party, not Amazon.
