Wikileaks has been handed victory on a silver platter. The victory doesn’t have anything to do with what they published in leaked information out of the US State Department which turned out to be nothing but old women’s gossip. It is solely down to American politicians. They alone have manoeuvred Wikileaks into an unassailable position.
The catastrophe started off with a panicking Hilary Clinton warning the so called world leaders about the leaks and the havoc the revelations would cause. The free advertising for Wikileaks did all it could, and suddenly the site was on every screen, in every newspaper, and on every news bulletin. The leaks that should shake the world turned out to be silly jokes made by stupid old men with a warped and demented sense of humour. The question is how much was Clinton paid by Julian Assange for her publicity stunt?
Then the political free ride really took off. While the entire world was wondering what the fuss was all about and was ready to dismiss the whole episode as a media flop, self appointed leaders of opinion took over where Clinton had left off. Why they did it was obvious. Nobody likes to be the laughing stock of the world, and with one fell swoop all America’s great secrets were revealed to be nothing but the mindless mumblings of workshy pranksters. Their talks of shooting and revenge did what Wikileaks could not: Keep the attention on the site.
Coincidentally, Sweden opened a case against Julian Assange, the founder of Wikileaks. They bungled it as badly as any American could have done which led people to believe that it was an American plot. With mindless stupidity, detractors of Wikileaks keep on repeating that Wikileaks is identical with Julian Assange. All they manage to do with this is keeping both in the news. Great work, no advertising company could do that for Wikileaks.
With mindless ferocity, politicians began blackmailing companies to take Wikileaks off the net. The result of their pains is a tangible backlash on Americans, on American websites, and that Wikileaks can be more easily accessed than ever before through countless mirror sites. Hilary Clinton claimed at the outset that lives would be at risk over the leaks. So far she still has to prove her empty claim. The behaviour of American politicians on the other hand puts American lives at risk in reality. But then, they are allowed to, they make it part of an afternoon’s work to throw away the lives of hundreds of soldiers in their greed for oil and money. How many sons of politicians have died in Iraq?
And this is only the story so far. The real losers will only be revealed in future. Assange was imprisoned in Britain; an upsurge of support for Wikileaks was the result. If England deports him to Sweden, Wikileaks will profit from a further surge of support, if he isn’t deported, Wikileaks has won an outright victory.
If the US government is stupid enough to charge him with espionage, Wikileaks wins because they will receive more support again; if they don’t Wikileaks has won an outright victory. The concerted efforts by American politicians are all that keeps Wikileaks in the news. The real question is what each of them is gaining out of their stunts personally? The whole thing is such a rigmarole no sane being could take it seriously.
And why are the real culprits not brought to accounts? Obviously, the CIA is not able to keep America secure. Its employees should have been removed from their desks by now without further salary, and their pensions scrapped. The same goes for each and every flunky in the State Department, and I mean all including the un-embarassable Mrs Bill Clinton. The Ambassadors mentioned in the leaks should already be back in the USA even though they paid a lot of money to buy their posts. They are better off than the rest of the floppy lot as they obviously have been trained for years as bad stand-up comedians.
Replace them? What for? The vacancy signs on their desks will do as much work in an hour as they did in a lifetime. Nobody needs an expensive security system that leaks like a rusty sieve or A State Department that is but an embarrassment.
