[Leica] FBI disrupts 20 Indymedia web sites hosted in England

[rangefinder at screengang.com (Didier Ludwig)]

The reason of the request of the swiss authorities is very well known. 
Indymedia (an extreme-left propaganda source known for its gloryfication of 
violence against authorities), had, on it's website, shown pictures, names 
and private adresses of two swiss undercover agents; which were 
investigating about the anti-G8-riots (recently, rioters had destroyed 
shops and burned cars in half the city of Geneva while a so called 
"peaceful demonstration").

Just don't know what this topic has lost in the LUG list.
