We owe Julian nothing but a short trip on a long rope.
And Julian richly deserves that. But I’m still glad this info got leaked.
The impending Greek default and implosion of the EU may actually do more to prevent this however.
Perhaps a trial is in order first. We have to keep in mind that it makes little sense to shoot (or hang) the messenger. It might tick off a few statists if their plot is revealed, but there seems to be things within the Wikileaks data that the citizenry of the US may need to know.
The fact that the government sent letters to federal employees instructing them to NOT read Wikileaks ought to raise the level of concern at least a little.
