Sarah Palin: To Julian Assange I Apologize
facebook.com ^ | Jan 4, 2017

Posted on 01/04/2017 1:15:45 AM PST by Helicondelta

The media collusion that hid what many on the Left have been supporting is shocking. This important information that finally opened people's eyes to democrat candidates and operatives would not have been exposed were it not for Julian Assange.

I apologize for condemning Assange when he published my infamous (and proven noncontroversial, relatively boring) emails years ago.

As I said at the time of being targeted and my subsequent condemnation, though, the line must be drawn before our troops or innocent lives deserving protection would be put at risk as a result of published emails.

Julian, I apologize.

- Sarah Palin

ps. If you get the chance, catch the movie "Snowden." That movie and Hannity's interview tonight are quite enlightening.

Julian isn’t a saint. Over all he has done a lot of good.

Bottom line is that I want to know as much truth as possible. I don’t care how I get the information. If Assange’s leaks exposed negative info about Trump, I’d appreciate that truth, too.

this is what I like about miss Palin. she has no problem with apologizing if she feels she needs to but is willing to fight when she thinks she is right.

I thought about it and as he had access only because our government was lazy and not concerned about informational security he felt he had to act because they have been after him for a very long time. He as a foreigner does not have the whistle-blower protection laws that we as US citizens supposedly do, or did. So, when one sees something very, very wrong and has the ability to at least get some of it out as a warning cry. . . . .

Liberal heads would explode if a President Trump gave the Medal of Freedom to Assange.

Nobody’s a saint. Not aware of too many people calling Julian one, either.

He has had an enormous impact on the history of the world, however, so like or loathe him as a saint or a sinner, doesn’t matter.

Julian's voice was so powerful. For those who have had family members, especially children, killed or injured by the state, he is a saint. There are people in the USA who may be granted a voice in the next few years. Julian if you are reading this, thanks.

Most likely, the DNC e-mails were nabbed by multiple parties. The effort required would have been low, given passwords like “password”.

The Russkis may well have hacked the e-mails, but would have found them more valuable if not released, as Hillarity was widely projected to win easily. (The Russians would want the people they could blackmail to win.)

WikiLeaks, OTOH, appears to have had someone “inside” who merely copied the files onto a flash drive. And then WikiLeaks released them. (Assange doesn’t much like Trump, but, he HATES Hillarity.)

The rumor is that every decent hacker on the planet has the Podesta emails. Some may not even know they do since using “password” to gain access to accounts is a training exercise for beginning hackers.

Does she also give Assange a pass for leaking the names of the Afghanies that were helping the military?

This woman needs to go away and stay away.

Agreed. Assange is just another opportunist looking for fame and power.

If (when) he leaks stuff damaging to Trump I wonder how much love Palin and the rest will give him.

Wikileaks is only dangerous if you are not telling the truth.

I support the fourth amendment, and I think releasing classified information or private emails is abhorrent.

The lessons to be learned are that you need to keep private things private, and secret things off from the internet. The world kept rotating smoothly all of these years without the internet.

We taught our kids that ANYTHING you type onto an internet connected computer can show up on the front page of the newspaper tomorrow.

And strong passwords. Make sure you have very strong passwords. Not “password.”

I wonder how these “smart” people can be so stupid.

I assume your PDS prevented you from reading the entire contents of this post. Permit me to underline the relevant section. Sarah said:

"As I said at the time of being targeted and my subsequent condemnation, though, the line must be drawn before our troops or innocent lives deserving protection would be put at risk as a result of published emails."
Sorry to disappoint a PDS sufferer, but Sarah's not going away.

Add to your comments the lesson that our national Internet and offices must have secure software. If we are being hacked this easily, it is because someone somewhere has not been using the most secure methods and technology! If the most up to date is not secure than our brightest need to develop better. It’s a lesson we MUST learn.

And if you do use the word password for password, don’t discuss the secret things you do to children.

Podesta and the dnc are not our government, but I understand what you’re saying.

Check out "Killswitch" on Netflix as well. Very eye-opening...
