I was watching the news last night and was interrupted by a "breaking news"; it was Julian Assange's coming out of jail to greet fans and news reporter as if he is a "celebrity" but for what? Releasing stolen memos? Is that what it takes to make a hero out of some unknown wacko, in Britain? A judge in Britain granted him bail of (equivalent) USD 300,0000, while his lawyers and Sweden government negotiating his extradition. I am not interested in the circumstances surrounding Assange's rape case in Sweden, but the perceived notion that Assange is a "hero, a messenger, and a real journalist". No he is none of the above!
The jubilation exhibited in UK when Assange met the press and fans on his way out, shows just how much hatred many people in UK and Europe have toward America. To many, the release of the documents is transparency and, by Assange's and Michael Moore's words, "Save lives". Just how they came up with that conclusion is shear insanity! It is impossible to estimate how many lives were saved as a result of what he did, but it is easy to tell how many recruits terrorists have result of these documents. So far, terrorists have drummed up these documents as justification for their attacks on America and for the killing of innocent lives here and in Europe. These documents don't save lives, they have the potential to destroy the world, not saving it!
These "documents" play right into the hands of "Islamic radicals" who see these documents as justification of the war it wages against the West. Remember this, Islamic extremists not only attacked America, but UK, Spain, and France. And other plots to attack the West were foiled in UK and Germany. Islam envisions a world rules by the Islamic Faith under the Sharia law and all humans subjected to Allah. Unless such war is accomplished, wars against the West and US will linger as long as human civilization existed.
If the "release" of these "classified documents" was done in the true nature of "transparency and accountability" why did Assange see fit to release points of interest of the US government across the world? What is that got to do with transparency? And how did Assenge saw fit to release documents that may harm Americans, Australians, Europeans, and Brits in the long run?
Assange is not a celebrity, he is a criminal who needs to shut up! He is a nut-job and a insane lunatic who doesn't deserve to be treated as if he is a hero or a celebrity. The irony is this; his mother asked him in jail if "its worth it", ironically, he is following is parents' footsteps. He is, like his parents, is an activist. There's a saying that goes like this, breed a python and it will take your life in the end.
