The only people who are real upset with the leaks are the elitist government officials who hate to be spotlighted in a negative way. A few things might be damaging to national security. But more so are the revelations damaging to the power brokers who think they own us.
And the elitists are the only ones who are calling for Assange’s head on a platter. I find it amusing how the elitists are scrambling to cover their ass.
Was this only meeting where he got his choice of material to publish?
How much was he paid?
Did he receive any other benefits for him to later distribute the materials?
Given he was the guest f an Icelandic MP, either they didn’t care he was there (or wanted him there), or, they had no idea who he was. That is what the MP thinks... More amateur hour in the Obama Administration.
"He certainly had fun at the party," said Birgitta Jonsdottir, an Icelandic MP and former activist in WikiLeaks. "He went as my guest. I said it would be a bit of a prank to take him and see if they knew who he was. I don't think they had any idea."
“Mr Assange’s site had already published dozens of leaks embarrassing to the US, including secret Guantanamo Bay detainee handling manuals and the full emails of Sarah Palin, the 2008 Republican vice-presidential candidate.”
How did Wikileaks obtain “the full emails of Sarah Palin?” I understand that the released documents were obtained via a US military individual from US intelligence sources. If so, this means that a US intelligence agency obtained, recorded, and retained “the full emails of Sarah Palin.” This is clearly illegal and most likely would have been done for political purposes. So, it is also very corrupt, a high crime and misdemeanor, an impeachable offense.
Just another bloated out of control bureaucracy. These hacks were attempting to justify their positions by pretending to be ‘working’ with ole Julian...
When do the Obama people set him up with a villa and a business like they did the Chinese terrorists from Gitmo?
