Interesting that it would be the Iranians and Chicoms.
I agree that it’s a little diffficult to see how this could benefit Obama (here in the US, at any rate). It just confirms what most people, including the Europeans, already think about him. However, if he is behind it, it could mean that he simply doesn’t care what people think about him and that he is willing to do anything to compromise and weaken the US and he doesn’t care who knows it.
And since the Iranians and the Chicoms are the two groups whose approval he seeks more than any other, perhaps this is his little offering to them. On the other hand, maybe my tinfoil is on too tight and he really is just a bumbling idiot and none of this means much of anything in connection with him.
It’s going to be mighty hard to figure out who is really at the core of the conspiracy but now that the document cat is out of the bag, you can bet that a whole lot of players will be trying to figure out how they can benefit, including Obama. And, if they can’t see any real “benefit,” they’ll be thinking in terms of damage control.
Also, I’m quite sure that Assange was very selective about what documents he put out so the absence of criticism of this country or that country in the pile of paper he released isn’t necessary proof that there is none in the original stack. He claims that it was an unedited dump but who can believe anything a creep like that (Self-professed anarchist with two rape warrants out for him in Sweden)has to say?
