Should a person raise a sensitive subject that endangers national security..?

Question

BACKGROUND (in rough)
Glasnost and Perestroika ‘dismantled’ the Soviet Union, now C.I.S., in part due to the largely unknown subculture of the internet at the time.

The authorities severed conventional communications to the outside world prior and during the change over from Communism.

However, the Soviet authorities overlooked the internet and the ability of its people within select groups to pass messages about to garner support for change and warn pro-democratic countries of an impending revolution.

At the time, it was without certainty on how the Soviet bloc would emerge and if peacefully as did the Velvet Revolution (or the revolution not occur at all) or that Yeltsin was certain to come to power from Gorbachev.

Gorbachev was under house arrest for his security for fear of mob violence during the transition. Fortunately, the aftermath turned out to be peaceful. (Otherwise, this question could conceivably, by a long shot, be asked from a gulag.) (Continued..)

A degree of democracy and a free market system emerged as a result of releasing the then considered deviant information.

It was considered anti-nationalistic within the Soviet Union, conversely, supported by western democracies.

..How will you react if you encountered a message of this nature to slip by Yahoo censors on this site ?

Would such a message be acknowledged as bona fide or dismissed without a second thought ?

ABRIDGED
That’.. – Internet was not widely available in the ussr during that period.
:: It was available to select groups of people that the commissar viewed as least unlikely threat.

one4g.. – The lack of credibility, means to verify and identify fact from propaganda. Unlikely to happen.
:: Amongst heavily advertised eye grabbing spaces on the internet, the yesterday news of the morrow released is conceivably the only means to link one issue to the other.

Unite.. – Faith in generally a good world where issues worth debating should be debated; those who stand to loose from revelation will tend to shield the truth: Truth is always an open book. Only lies need to be hidden!
:: Truth whilst an open book, needs to be revealed at opportune times so as to preserve its message from would be detractors. Truth and lies stand together to reveal the one over the other which makes it all the more important timing being crucial. A complex issue above cloak and daggers.

Bulab.. –
- Revealing and reconciling levels of poverty on paper to the proof in seeing; Red ink debt; How a third world could feasibly invade successfully a first world with minimal arms and technology.
- Pride provides the perfect illusory effect for heads held high over hell and high waters despite the realities faced.
:: Absolutely. Many half truths and truths. Poverty levels, a performance score card of politicians today, is ever so well hidden that is true of many nations. Invasion is less likely for many other reasons though. Keeping the Status Quo is ever the imperative of existing agreements, implied and explicit.

Flyin.. –
- Noteworthy figureheads and extent of influence accords significance response.
- An almost inevitability of free speech and freedom of choice in general, potentially leads to controversy and consequences.
- Raising issues that brings overall change consistent with democratisation process of nations is usually welcomed from outside nations, at the risk of power brokerage and change in balance of the regions so affected.

:: Authenticity of the senders (one4g..) and their messages will be difficult to prove, unless there are precedents and historical accounts.

What price, Freedom: Knowing the possibility of failure, is democracy worth the lives of a few for the masses ? Take North Korea as an example, in general, the people believe in the illusion sold to them.

OTHER COMMENTS
Per one degree requested...Erstwhile, if you are attempting contact persons previously hailing from London School of Economics. (LSE), one may be of assistance, alternatively, get the Bursar’s address to enquire thereon, if that be not their purpose, what is?

WAFFLE
Why the audience ? Where is the silvery foil blanket wen you needs one to hide mind and heart ?

Ah am as another red brick in the wall; The hippopotamus that totally failed to drink from whiskey lakes of Glenmorgen; A fly amongst flies that will never experience the ecstasy of landing in a warm bowl of soup. Never fear. Ah endeavours with clearing fecal matter and at the same time donning unequivocally blinders to maintain sanity. Oh. And one has to blames it on something. Might as well be zer recent changes in eco-climate. Das ist kleit.

Answer thee these wise questions three and thou shall be granted passage or be smitten as as would the flailing milk man in the midst of winter loose his pants to a British Bulldog. O, the humanities!

Answer 1

Hello Pax, first a drought and there are three (questions that is)
You are aware that your audience are largely from a collection of majority democratic states/countries aren't you. It depends on who the person is and the extent of his influence to which it pulls in a significance response. As we are used to free speech and freedom of choice in general I think that someone talking around an issue that ignites controversy and consequences in national security is something that is bound to happen. Is the individual motivated otherwise in addressing the issue, what happens after he has done so, and to what extent will the other side gain advantage in the balance of power? If the raising of an issue brings about overall change that is consistent with the democratisation of nations then it is usually to be welcomed, from outside nations. BTW I would just like to know, in which subject was your degree and was it from the LSE?

Answer 2

There are good and bad people in the world. And I'm more inclibed to believe that there are more good souls than evil minds. Issues worth debating should be debated and people should be given chances to decide and ponder over all sides of the issues. It's the evil people who are scared of the truth and want to shield everyone for getting to the truth. Evil creeps in the dark. Truth is always an open book. Only lies need to be hidden!

Answer 3

Like revealing the levels of poverty,the red ink debt and how stupid & weak Americans under 45 are! How China could invade & attack us & succeed with only small arms resistance up to 50 caliber! Well anyone who has traveled this country can openly see the poverty in daylight! Many will not admit how broke they are or the actual debt they have signed for!

Answer 4

Kind of a questionable question. I really don't think that the internet was widely available in the ussr during that time period, especially a computer and keyboard and phone lines in a gulag?

Answer 5

Unfortunately, I can see it being slipped by and not being acknowledged, because of the lack in credibility, and in identifying what is true and what is propaganda. In addition to all the jokers, that yahoo attracts....sorry, just don't see it happening here in Y!A.
