The Julian Assange Arrest, part 1

Dec 7th, 2010

From VOA news:

"Prior to his arrest Tuesday, WikiLeaks leaked diplomatic memos that say NATO drew up military plans to defend Baltic nations against a Russian attack after Russia's conflict with Georgia in 2008.  The Guardian newspaper says the memos reveal that secret plans to protect Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania were drawn up at NATO headquarters at the urging of the United States and Germany."

Read that again. What this means is that "Condi" Rice, at the behest of a willfully ignorant and half-literate Texan, was willing to begin a process that could have feasibly vaporized the planet to "protect" Estonia from Vladimir Putin.

But, by all means, let's continue to make the story about Assange and the "security" of our information. Information that our government, in our names, has EVER been this cravenly fucking stupid SHOULDN'T be "secure."
