PROPAGANDA ALERT : DAILY NEWS ATTACK
The Pentagon has asked Julian Assange to "do the right thing" and give back 15,000 secret U.S. Afghan war records that his Wikileaks website is set to release.
Assange has no concept of what "the right thing" means. Look at what happened after his first document dump. When Assange released those 70,000 classified files last month, he couldn't have been more dismissive of claims he was endangering lives. "There's no tactically significant information in this material. We have looked at it," he said.
But - oopsie! - there were names of Afghans who had supported U.S. troops. Then a Taliban spokesman announced how they'd treat the just-discovered traitors: "If they are U.S. spies, then we know how to punish them."
Suffering a brief bout of doubt, Assange brought the next batch of secrets, the 15,000 files in question, to the Pentagon - for help in redacting sensitive information.
After a review, the Pentagon said there's no way to release the files without jeopardizing more lives.
Now, Wikileaks says it plans to release the documents anyway.
Assange's conscience was the first thing he killed.
