I don’t.
Amazon is an international company, expatriates buy lots of books from them. I’m one I do.
The leaks prove what people have known for a long time; that our leaders are doing a lousy job, they squander money, resources and time. They play games. It wouldn’t surprise me that the leaks came from a pfc, I was a pfc and you do all the sh*t work with all the responsibility all the time for nothing, why not drop a dime, things might improve.

Already in. I was going to buy some software from Amazon, but after hearing about them hosting the WikiLeaks stuff, I bought the software somewhere else. I’m very happy my wife bought a Nook instead of a Kindle a couple of days ago, too.

I once a PFC too. It never ONCE would have occurred o me to betray my country due to my “conditions”. It is, after all, a VOLUNTEER Army.

Actually, I like amazon, the company. But this is appalling.

You might as well boycott Endless, w00t, Audible. Amazon owns them.

I’m sure that, given their size, Amazon will not even notice my protest

I doubt if they will notice that you have left, they will probably be too busy selling sensational books, DVD's, and Kindles about WikiLeaks.

Not to mention porn on Kindles and DVDs,

Wow. I screwed that post up.
Lesson learned about trying to post from the Droid.
But I was once a PFC, too. I volunteered for the crappy conditions. I’ll bet the little office flunky had it much better than a grunt private who never dreamed of betraying his country.
Methinks it has more to do with being a homo than with his poor, poor pitiful “conditions”.

I hope this attempt makes more sense.

how has this information releassed damaged our country?

i really think it’s more about Hilary and Obama and Obama stopping Hilary in her tracks, dismantling the Clinton Machine that continues to run.
