Sarah Palin, who just a few weeks ago was calling Julian Assange an un-American operative with blood on his hands and a traitor (which doesn't make sense, since he's not American, but we'll let that go) is now using the information from the leaked Wikileaks cables to bolster the case for attacking Iran.
Palin recently posted this on her Facebook:
"Iran continues to defy the international community in its drive to acquire nuclear weapons. Arab leaders in the region rightly fear a nuclear-armed Iran. We suspected this before, but now we know for sure because of leaked diplomatic cables."
Is she for real? She was calling for Assange to be hunted down like a terrorist a few weeks ago because he leaked info, and now she's using that same info to support her political agenda.
"In the world of politics, sadly, things are never as innocent as they appear. According to new revelations, Assange had allegedly struck a deal with Israel before the recent ‘cable gate’, which may explain why the leaks “were good for Israel,” as the Israeli prime minister put it.
A number of commentators, particularly in Turkey and Russia, have been wondering why the hundreds of thousands of American classified documents leaked by the website last month did not contain anything that may embarrass the Israeli government, like just about every other state referred to in the documents. The answer appears to be a secret deal struck between the WikiLeaks “heart and soul”, as Assange humbly described himself once, with Israeli officials, which ensured that all such documents were ‘removed’ before the rest were made public."
This is going around the net. it certainly goes along with "Bomb bomb bomb bomb bomb Iran", now, doesn't it?
Ohlmert:"The Iraq war was good for Israel"
9/12/01, Barak: "The US must invade Afhganistan"
In a recent meeting, with McCain and Lindsey Graham in attendance--broadcast on C-Span: Ehud Barak- "We must do something about Iran, but not for the TV cameras".
This wiki-leaks is suspect. Where are the leaks about 9/11? That is strangely absent, along with leaks about Israel? Maybe they go together.
PNAC. NeoCon. Dual-Citizens. AIPAC. Connect the dots.
google "The 13th Tribe". Or "True Torah Jews Against Zionism."
This is not about anti-semitism, it's about truth. And a love for the people of my country who are being used and abused.
And the Palestinians, who are being brutalized.

& what do you think about Julian Assange? Do you appreciate what he is doing or is it the opposite? Is he the main man or just another pawn, playing the role of a show man? I did not knw much about him until recently & I personally felt that the rape charges were side effects of his actions...

I thought it would be a neat idea to award Julian Assange the Nobel Peace Prize for 2011 - if he's still alive of course - but it seems I was not the only one to have the same thought - the Russian government has suggested it already - 2 Peace Prize Winners imprisoned - 1 in the USA (he ain't there...

WikiLeaks is involved in uncovering many hateful activities of the US government. In this respect would it be justified to restrict their activities by the US government?
