Double blow for Microsoft UK

As of two days ago, the UK Advertising Standards Authority's powers now extend to the Web:

The secrets within the Wikileaks "Insurance Policy"

What would be the most damning evidence Wikileaks could use against the US government, as an "insurance policy" against Julian Assange's assassination, and/or Wikileaks being shut down?

At the very least, I'd be very surprised if there weren't some heavily damaging documents, in some way related to 9/11.
