Why isn’t Julian Assange dead yet? Assange says he’s the editor of a website called WikiLeaks. But he’s not really an editor, because WikiLeaks doesn’t do much writing. It’s a website where secrets are posted to the Internet. But most of the secrets revealed there aren’t really leaked either. They’re stolen. When WikiLeaks debuted in January 2007, it promised to shine a light of scrutiny on dictatorships. Many of its early directors were Chinese dissidents. Its focus would be “oppressive regimes in Asia, the former Soviet bloc, Sub-Saharan Africa and the Middle East.” They said their “roots are in dissident communities and our focus is on non-Western authoritarian regimes.” But then Assange, a computer hacker from Australia, took over. His obsession is to embarrass the world’s freest countries — the U.S. and U.K. And as to repressive regimes, well, put it this way, Assange says U.S. forces must remember “shooting the Taliban is shooting the Afghan people.” He’s not anti-war. He’s on the other side. Assange published the names of Afghan human rights activists and others who have co- operated with the U.S. — giving out names of villages and GPS coordinates. That’s not journalism. That’s not whistleblowing. That’s setting up “deadly revenge attacks,” says Reporters Without Borders. Zabihullah Mujahid is grateful. He’s a Taliban spokesman who says “we know how to punish them.” Assange published details about technology used to stop improvised explosive devices (IEDs) from being detonated. WikiLeaks calls roadside bombs a “rebel investment,” proudly pointing out for every dollar spent by the terrorists, the U.S. and Canada have to spend a thousand to defend against them. So Assange published those anti-IED details online. This week, Assange started to publish 250,000 U.S. diplomatic messages, many marked secret. The fight against terrorism is being endangered. Other members of WikiLeaks have complained about Assange’s anti-American obsession. But it’s his show now. So who is he? Assange has never been a democracy activist. His parents were travelling entertainers in Australia. When Assange was eight, his mother remarried a member of a cult called “The Family,” infamous for abusing children with psychiatric medication. When that relationship crumbled, Assange’s mother took him into hiding for five years. She boasts she moved her son 37 times before he was 14. Assange became a computer hacker and took the nickname Mendax, which means liar in Latin. He was convicted for hacking into Nortel. His run-ins with the law continue. This month, Interpol issued an arrest warrant against him for rape. Assange claims the sex was consensual. But the Swedish prosecutor says Assange refuses to present himself for interrogation. Why is Assange still alive? Why is he being treated as a journalist or political activist? If someone had published the intimate details of the D-Day plans during the Second World War, he would never have been seen again. Assange and his colleagues act like spies, not journalists. WikiLeaks could have its assets seized, just like the Taliban has. And U.S. President Barack Obama could do what he’s doing to the Taliban throughout the world. He doesn’t sue them or catch them. He kills them. Because it’s war. Obama has even ordered the assassination of an American citizen, Anwar al-Awlaki. How does Obama see Assange any differently?

Easy question. Because the messiah "king" obammy and the demonRAT partee et. al. agree with what he has done, as do so many that infest this site and others do. “A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. The traitor is the plague.” Marcus Tullius Cicero

why isn't this zionist fascist dead?
Long live the Taliban Freedom Fighters!
Another lie. Assange was there from the very beginning. Nothing has changed. They are still dedicated to exposing light of scrutiny on tyrannical regimes. Who runs the largest global tyranny in the world? Not at home, but abroad. (Also increasingly at home.) Who?
Because he is wealthy and influential,and because he is a handy tool for the globalists in the Dim/RINO Party. They use him because he helps them to further their goal of destroying sovereign nations and establishing a fascist world government. I somehow doubt he would enjoy hacking into THEIR secrets,though. The first time he tries he ends up dead for real.

You are so f'ing stupid that you can't even google to get the facts. I'm quite sure that you would have been driven to suicide during the Dewey Decimal System. WkikiLeaks has only been around a couple of years and already they've done this: Climatic Research Unit emails In November 2009, controversial documents, including e-mail correspondence between climate scientists, were released (allegedly after being illegally obtained)[146] from the University of East Anglia's (UEA) Climatic Research Unit (CRU). According to the university, the emails and documents were obtained through a server hacking; one prominent host of the full 120MB archive was WikiLeaks.[147][148] Bilderberg Group meeting reports Since May 2009, WikiLeaks has made available reports of several meetings of the Bilderberg Group.[155] It includes the group's history[156] and meeting reports from the years 1955, 1956, 1957, 1958, 1960, 1962, 1963 and 1980. Nuclear accident in Iran On 16 July 2009, Iranian news agencies reported that the head of Iran's atomic energy organization Gholam Reza Aghazadeh had abruptly resigned for unknown reasons after twelve years in office.[158] Shortly afterwards WikiLeaks released a report disclosing a "serious nuclear accident" at the Iranian Natanz nuclear facility in 2009.[159] The Federation of American Scientists (FAS) released statistics according to which the number of enriched centrifuges operational in Iran mysteriously declined from about 4,700 to about 3,900 beginning around the time the nuclear incident WikiLeaks mentioned would have occurred.[160][161] According to media reports the accident may have been the direct result of a cyberattack at Iran's nuclear program, carried out with the Stuxnet computer worm.[162][163]
LOL! Aww, now you went and hurt my feelings, TOOL. And btw TOOL, the answer to your specious libTURD dogma question, " Who runs the largest global tyranny in the world? Not at home, but abroad. (Also increasingly at home.) Who?", is COMMUNIST CHINA and the Organization of Islamic states et. al., as I have already stated you gibbering slack jawed tool. The rest was by way of ridiculing you TOOL. And unlike you, you little snot nosed TOOL, I grew up knowing and understanding, and am still skilled at the use of the Dewey Decimal system you gibbering libTURD ponce. LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wikileaks is guilty of theft and you are guilty of plagiarizing.
Thanks for the reminder. I had forgotten all about that one.

Because up til now his bullshit has reflected badly on the previous administration, and our current President is a pussy that probably was cheering this asshole on in private. Whats going to be facinating to see is how Owe-bama and company react, not to THIS latest leak, but the one coming related to Bank of America.
Obama's first all-by-his-lonesome budget, btw, calls for a $1.17 trillion deficit.
