  1. But what Assange did was lazy. He dumped 2.5Gb of info into the lap of Russia, China and every anti-democratic, anti-human-rights country in the world. It included information about human rights protestors and informants. They all went down the pan. Just so lazy Assange can claim the credit for a scoop. Jimmy is right about war-crimes but the 2.5Gb should have been filtered to find crimes. Assange was too lazy. Too lazy and too egotistical to hand it to someone else to filter.

  4. Assange released 2.5Gb of info : that's about 7000 books. He had no idea what was on it. Assange betrayed hundreds of activists who who working for democracy against dictatorships. Why ? Because he couldn't read it all and didn't want to share it. He could send it to Amnesty or other journalists but didn't want them stealing his limelight. Lazy, egotistical Assange wanted all the glory of dumping intelligence that endangered other people's lives. Obviously he exposed war-crimes : we all want that but you can't condemn other activists to arrest & torture at the same time. You have to filter it and protect the good guys. Assange has no friends....except for ill-informed Jimmy Dore types.

  6.  @kungfew1396  , I'm on your side : I want yank war crimes exposed but Assange dumped 7,500 books worth of intelligence. He'd no idea what was on it or who he was betraying. The point is he didn't care, it was all about him grabbing the limelight. It's all about Assange's ego not about activists working under a dictatorship who he exposed. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2011/sep/18/julian-assange-wikileaks-nick-cohen

  9.  @kungfew1396  David Leigh and Luke Harding's history of WikiLeaks describes how journalists took Assange to Moro's, a classy Spanish restaurant in central London. A reporter worried that Assange would risk killing Afghans who had co-operated with American forces if he put US secrets online without taking the basic precaution of removing their names. "Well, they're informants," Assange replied. "So, if they get killed, they've got it coming to them. They deserve it." A silence fell on the table as the reporters realised that the man the gullible hailed as the pioneer of a new age of transparency was willing to hand death lists to psychopaths. They persuaded Assange to remove names before publishing the State Department Afghanistan cables. But Assange's disillusioned associates suggest that the failure to expose "informants" niggled in his mind

  10.  Dulce Wilcox  , I'm on your side : I want the US prosecuted for war crimes but what Assange did was to dump 2.5Gb of classified documents so that Dictators could identify activists in their country and kill or torture them. Why did Assange do that ? Because Assange was too lazy to filter the material. he couldn't be bothered reading it all.(I Gb is about 3400 books) Assange didn't want to share it with Amnesty International or other journalists because of his ego. So he dumped it all and claimed the attention for himself.

  15. Nick Cohen.... You did not have to listen for too long to Julian Assange's half-educated condemnations of the American "military-industrial complex" to know that he was aching to betray better and braver people than he could ever be. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2011/sep/18/julian-assange-wikileaks-nick-cohen As soon as WikiLeaks received the State Department cables, Assange announced that the opponents of dictatorial regimes and movements were fair game. That the targets of the Taliban, for instance, were fighting a clerical-fascist force, which threatened every good liberal value, did not concern him. They had spoken to US diplomats. They had collaborated with the great Satan. Their safety was not his concern.
