Notice how there is NO mention about Israel in any of these leaked documents, except for a token mention of Bibi.

Gee, I wonder why that is?

I’ll tell you. Wikileaks is an Israeli program and this release has been timed to destroy Obama on the international scene and any gains he has made in getting the Palestinians a nation.

It seems that Wikileaks and Assange are victims of a political wich to control og information. This can lead to no good. It just makes people do extreme things to get their message heard.

Several WikiLeaks acquaintances point out they [Assange] on it’s own chose to release the particular Afghan files with out taking out the labels regarding Afghan cleverness solutions pertaining to NATO troops. ‘We were really, very disappointed your, along with the way they chatted over it afterwards,’ stated Birgitta Jonsdottir, a key WikiLeaks offer plus a an affiliate Iceland’s Parliament. ‘If he may only target the important things he does, it might be greater.

I have been following this Wiki leaks event for many many months even before it made global headlines..

As a systems analyst and Independent I have been monitoring traffic spikes on among the array of global wires and signals,

evidence clearly suggest more times than not this event has been nothing less than a combined effort by many people around the world, including all major players of the famed G8,

data also suggest that the intent of this effort has been nothing more than another botched attempt to increase the political base required effect via a systemic process any and all steps to curb and eventually control the flow of real facts and and the same time capitalize upon the media blitz at the expense of expendable assets of nations in crisis.

My prayers are with the families of the serviceman caught up in this mess…

Please consider writing about the idea that it might be real that NO MAN wearing a US uniform would ever ever even think of doing what what they are claiming in a time of war unless he was ordered.

I stopped reading when I got to your juvenile rant about the NSA, which demonstrates that you know almost nothing about the actual agency or the people who work there. You have very strong opinions for someone whose knowledge apparently comes from comic books.

Congrats on having a childish take on a complex government agency.

“If the Internet was walking around in public, it would look and act a lot like Julian Assange.”

Mmm, that is a good line Sterling. But. If a novel or if a blog was walking around in public, it might not look anything like Bruce Sterling. Bruce Sterling is more likely to be riding in the back of a car, looking out the window, with sunglasses on. If he had a camera in his hands, Bruce Sterling’s choice of angles and lighting would be technically gorgeous. And when he edited everything, the vision he captured of the world going by him, would magically, somehow, be stark and sparkly. But in the end it would be essentially neutral, and it would not really mean enough, in times such as these.

Come out of the backseat, the cramped melancholy. Get some air. Perhaps you too have been grasping for the third rail? Sitting, alone, reconstructing phrases, in front of a computer screen, judging others, who are taking action, not because they are superior, but because they are human.

Thanks for making me think,
Pam
