Re: The rape case against Wikileaks' Julian Assange

what you described sounds like a weird breed of narcissistic personality mixed with social anxiety, not a sociopathic person.

Yeah, you're probably right.

I was a history/poly sci major............................psychology is not my thing.

Not my problem if you're too mentally deficient to be able to understand all that I have stated. Nor is it my responsibility to educate you, that would have been your teachers and your morally bankrupt parent/parents responsibility.

Death to Assange! But life to the rest of wikileaks, the name-droppers, whistle-blowers, mirror sites and especially to the mainstream media publications who report other leaks on a regular basis.

There is no dirt on Israel or Israeli-related matters.
I'd bet you have another agenda. I was just on Wikileaks' Swedish mirror site (U.S. sites are all unavailable), where it indicates less than 900 of a total of over 250,000 documents have been released. Bit premature to be making conclusions like that.

Re: The rape case against Wikileaks' Julian Assange

Julian Assange is just another criminal trying to extort money from the world. He and his organization should just be eliminated and end all the suspense. He doesn't realize that he is playing in the big leagues now. Wonder how it will be for him to remain in hiding for the remainder of his life no matter how much longer it may be.

Re: Of wikileaks, julian assange, and assassination threat-as-joke of tom flanagan an



POSTED RESPONSE TO A COLUMN IN TORONTO'S GLOBE AND MAIL

There is nothing new in learning anything which confirms that Tom Flanagan is a nasty piece of work.

The man is pure, unadulterated American Right-Wing, a thrust-the-imperial-flag-into-the-chests-of-those-working-against-America’s-sacred-interests man, without a trace of decent traditional conservative.

He literally represents in Canada everything you find in that ugly mob which includes Dick “kill the turbanhead scum” Cheney, Tom "the money launderer" DeLay, Sarah “the idiot witth super-sized glands” Palin, Newt “I divorced my wife dying of cancer” Gingrich, and all the other charming Washington folks who work tirelessly for war and imperial interests. The influence and the money for promoting Right-Wing values come up alongside the same pipelines which carry Alberta's crude and natural gas South.

I have never understood why the Globe gives him column-inches periodically, other than the well-know fact that he has been adviser to Harper, truly the most divisive politician in living memory and a man who already has succeeded in corroding away like spilled battery acid a great deal of Canada’s past wonderful international reputation.

Flanagan's columns have never demonstrated anything beyond the academic quality or interest of just another second-rate social scientist. He is in academic terms a truly undistinguished thinker.

But there is nothing second rate or undistinguished about his visceral instincts for plotting against and trying to destroy traditional Canadian values. The man is an instinctive predator, a perfect hunting-mate for Harper.

I note the comment that Flanagan’s comment about killing Assange was made in the form of a joke, but then only rather sick people make such jokes or laugh at them.

Shouldn't people who say such things be treated as terrorists, or at least as people having made a criminal threat?

What a load of bunk.

Sorry, that's the nicest response I can offer to the above whiney drivel.

Re: The rape case against Wikileaks' Julian Assange

How is he trying to extort money? The content is given out freely. He's a man, who, rightly or wrongly, believes in open access to the workings of government.

Re: The rape case against Wikileaks' Julian Assange

''Does anyone else think its an unlikely co-incidence that wikileaks founder Julian Assange has been charged with rape and molestation at the same time he has released hundreds of thousands of damaging documents and his website is the focus of a massive denial of service attack?''

He must be a very busy man to engage in all that activity.

Yeah right - it's just the CIA and its puppets in Interpol trying to suppress knowledge of the truth he is disclosing.

Re: The rape case against Wikileaks' Julian Assange

How would tying Assange down in court prevent anything? As I understand, he's just the phsyical head of the organization and documents can still be posted even if he is in prison.

The whole rape case is meant to slander his reputation, hence in most news article, they'll introduce him as "Julian Assange, currently on trial in a rape case, et al". Doesn't necessarily work very well on my generation or those of us connected to the internet, but the ''Channel Six Babyboomers" are probably lapping it up.

Re: Of wikileaks, julian assange, and assassination threat-as-joke of tom flanagan an

My take on this whole Wikileaks Fiasco is that, with the exception of information that identifies individual persons (owing to individual right to privacy, for which the individual persons identified ought to be free to sue Wikileaks for compensation), in a democracy, all government information belongs to the people. So again, personal information aside, all of the information in Wikileaks was fair game.

That said, seeing that most of it did seem to be of a personal nature, identifying certain persons, probably most of it isn't fair game. But blot out individual names, and as far as I'm concerned, the American taxpayer has every right to know what his government is up to.
