Julian Assange WikiLeaks

It sure seems that way. Nick Cohen on the Treachery of Julian Assange:

As soon as WikiLeaks received the State Department cables, Assange announced that the opponents of dictatorial regimes and movements were fair game. That the targets of the Taliban, for instance, were fighting a clerical-fascist force, which threatened every good liberal value, did not concern him. They had spoken to US diplomats. They had collaborated with the great Satan. Their safety was not his concern.

 

David Leigh and Luke Harding's history of WikiLeaks describes how journalists took Assange to Moro's, a classy Spanish restaurant in central London. A reporter worried that Assange would risk killing Afghans who had co-operated with American forces if he put US secrets online without taking the basic precaution of removing their names. "Well, they're informants," Assange replied. "So, if they get killed, they've got it coming to them. They deserve it." A silence fell on the table as the reporters realised that the man the gullible hailed as the pioneer of a new age of transparency was willing to hand death lists to psychopaths. They persuaded Assange to remove names before publishing the State Department

It turns out that popularity with the anti-imperialist masses doesn't get you a "get out of jail free" card when you're facing criminal charges. His supporters will surely be up in arms that Britain will be sending Julian Assange to the corrupt police state of, er, Sweden, where he will face a kangaroo court by an, er, radical feminist judge.

Sheesh. You'd think he was charged with rape or sexual assault or something. Oh, wait...More >>

julian assange wikileaks guardian legal britain sweden case policeWikileaks front man Julian Assange might not be a rapist. But at the very least, he appears to be a sexually inept weirdo. Courtesy of the Guardian:

Another friend told police that during the evening Miss A told her she had had "the worst sex ever" with Assange: "Not only had it been the world's worst screw, it had also been violent."

Assange seems to think that being unconscious implies consent (which if valid, ought to vindicate drink-spiking frat boys and nightclub predators around the world):

 She had awoken to find him having sex with her, she said, but when she asked whether he was wearing a condom he said no.

And how could anyone resist this sort of classy, romantic advance?

She told police that Assange had continued to make sexual advances to her every day after they slept together and on Wednesday 18 August had approached her, naked from the waist down, and rubbed himself against her.

Assange has managed to seduce so-called progressives willing to overlook his personal failings. As more...More >>

We used to execute spies who helped the enemy during wartime by providing secret military intelligence. When it comes to this sort of information, publishing it online for the world to see is actually far, far worse than simply handing it over to Al Queda or the Taliban in a briefcase.

The strategy is simple. Forget Julian Assange. Not every Wikileaks collaborator out there will try to move to Sweden to live out the rest of their lives.

Arrest them. Put them in prison. The worst cases get the firing squad.

Shut down the leakers and you shut down Wikileaks.

Just a thought.

As the Taliban announces with relish their intent to hunt down and neutralize Afghan informants to international military forces, WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange is treading on splintering black ice. Contributing Writer Terry Glavin covers the controversy (This article was originally published in Chronicles and Dissent).

Julian Assange wikileaks Afghan war collaborators treasonIt's too bloody late, of course, but still.

In the matter of Amnesty International, the Campaign for Innocent Victims in Conflict, the Open Society Institute, the Afghanistan Independent Human Rights Commission and the Kabul office of the International Crisis Group Versus the WikiLeaks "hero" Julian Assange:

We have seen the negative, sometimes deadly ramifications for those Afghans identified as working for or sympathizing with international forces. We strongly urge your volunteers and staff to analyze all documents to ensure that those containing identifying information are taken down or redacted.

Here's how the foppish, arrogant bastard responded: I'm very busy and have no time to deal with people who prefer to do nothing but cover their asses. If Amnesty does nothing I shall issue a press release highlighting its refusal....More >>
