I, for one, don’t care about Assange’s motives. I don’t care about his sex life. I care about the millions of innocent civilians killed by the US.

From the moment that I saw “Collateral Murder” I felt a deep sence of gratitude to Assange and Manning (if he helped) and anyone else who exposes war crimes – and a deep sence of shame for the other citizens who trivialize the atrocities.

I don’t understand why there is not a strong, unified effort to free Manning and protect Assange. What the hell is wrong with some of you out there?

This is the link to the Sicko/Cuba cable that Moore said was false.

erm… Assange is on the record a number of times as saying that he had hoped that the on-line public would take up the data and run their own open source analyes, and combine their insights to build a better picture of what the data REALLY MEANS.

I agree that lionising or demonising Assange is a diversion. I see no hero here. And no need for a hero, much less a martyr.

I am currently working on the few Vatican cables released thus far to eludicate the layers of self-deception, denial and propaganda that permeates the worldwide clerical abuse of children in Residential School Systems.

I wrote recently that the reporting of the cable that mentioned ‘pressure’ applied on the part of the Irish Government should be seen in context : both the Irish Government (or State) and The Vatican are equally liable /culpable with regard to the culture that permitted such widespread abuses, and the ensueing cover-up once Surviuvors started bringing their evidence into the public domain.

Damage Limitation by two equally culpable parties.

The Irish Government and The Vatican made a deal with each other, that effectively ring-fenced their civil liabilities by setting up a Redress Fund which also delayed and obstructed criminal prosecutions against known abusers and the operatives of the cover-up. Whilst the Redress process was ongoing……

It serves both if The Vatican were to mention to a US diplomat, and any other less than critically aware dignatories and reporters that ‘pressure’ was experienced from the Irish Government (not known for their back-bone). It makes the Irish Government look good. “We tried our best!” And the Vatican can state yet again the lie of it’s status as a Sovereign State as a an incontrovertible fact of life. And thus protect The Pope’s immunity, and by extention, the Vatican.

Reporting that particular cable as is without analysis of the history and context, unwttingly (?) achieved the aims of both GOI and The Vatican.

To imagine that the kinds of well organised and profoundly manipulative people that typify Governance, Secular and Religious, do not sit down and work through the details and layers of their deceit, based upon many years of almost scientific research, in some detail, before hand (which most media, typically, do NOT imagine) is naive at best.

But it would take a Survivor to make those connections, to tease out the psychology between the lines (and lies).

And there are many, many Survivors of all kinds of State abuses whose voices have rarely ever entered into the mainstream public discourse, whose insight is deep, whose very survival is profound strength and who have much to offer in terms of how to deal with the abusers, and how to prevent further abuse.

They are excluded because the elephant they see in the room is the very psyche of the Society, and threatens everyone who has managed to find a niche within that Society.

The existence of WIKI LEAKS without the rest of us doing the work of engaging with the data, and running our own analyses, is pointless – Assange knows that.

When will the rest of the ‘activista’ community get it?

Thus this demonstrates that the WikiLeaks information cannot be taken on face value and needs to be vetted before it can be taken as “gospel”. This affirms my critique of Amy Goodman on DN! who ran with the ALLEGED remarks of the Saudi King that was published in The New York Times an outfit who published Judith Miller’s LIES leading to the Iraq War.

WikiLeaks is being hailed by the pseudo-Left but when they released the emails refuting “Climate Change” the were no accolades for WikiLeaks by the pseudo-Left. Thus once again exposes the pseudo-Left as part of the deception.

Assange didn’t use a condom when he was….. What was the reason?

Was he in hurry not to ‘leak’ the ‘secret’ cables related to Israeli’s crime against humanity? This question can be answered only by Mossad.
