Are you afraid of what others will say?

Great people are one in themselves and the principles they hold. Whistleblowing is perhaps the most intolerable sin in Christendom. Just like Judas denounced Jesus, Jesus was nailed to the cross, and Judas was nailed to the pillar of shame forever.

In the so-called democratic and free America, stories like the heroines in the film are frequent, Assange and Snowden. These stories all raise the question of which is more just between national security and truth, and it may be an unanswered question. Because human beings are not gods, they cannot see absolute justice, but the real value of human beings lies in the persistent pursuit of justice and truth. This paradox is the sad fate of human beings.

The reason why films such as Assange and Crisis Declassification, which are similar to this film, can be released in the United States, also shows from another aspect that human nature has defeated the cold state machine, and freedom of speech is sacred and inviolable in the face of national security.

    Good movie. As a journalist, you should have such an attitude. It is inevitable to pay a price for your own principles.

Your source is in a great deal of trouble.
