I am probably gonna piss off a ton of people right now. So what's new?
I think this whole Wiki-Leak thing is a lot of BS. I think maybe 10% of it is good. We should always know when our country is acting illegal. If we are committing war crimes ,then scream it!OUT LOUD!If we are mistreating people,in the name of freedom,then again scream it! But I could give a rat's patooey about how we are talking about other countries!What does that have to do with anything? I could care less if Qaddafi is traveling around with a Brazilian nurse.
What I do care about is that "Saint" Julian is running around saying how everyone is out to get him and letting Private Manning rot in prison. If it wasn't for Manning, we would all be saying, Julian who? I have issues with what Manning did as in regard to the oath he took.Having said that, I think it took some damn courage to expose the helicopter fight waged on innocent civilians.I have no problem, as I have said, exposing any type of injustice we as a country are doing to innocent civilians.
If Assainge is innocent of the charges in Sweden, as he claims ,well then go back and deal with them. Stop crying "poor me" and as the expression goes ,MAN UP!Meanwhile Manning rots in jail with no money for his defense and "Saint" Julian just signed a million dollar book deal!He seemed to know what he was getting into, when he released this stuff, in the first place. He very well could be right ,and everyone is out to get him. It was a chance he took when he started this!
If it is true he has all kinds of stuff on the banks,again, I have no problem with that stuff also being exposed. Hidden torture camps we are using? Expose them!...Killing innocent Americans abroad?Expose them!.All I have seen so far though is a black eye for diplomacy and not a whole lot else.
In the immortal words of that old commercial:SHOW ME THE MEAT!!!
Otherwise, STFU!
