When I vent my spleen on this sight, I am reminded of GamPa Simpson.
Hear We sit, You and I, in a world of everyday miracles.
We turn a tap and have potable water. Hot and cold!
Turn a switch and there's light! Heating! Cooling! Internet! Many more.
There are cars. We can fly! We go to space! More and more.
Hospitals! Schools!
All delivered by the joint efforts of past generations.
And the gift that this generation would leave the world? Tear it all down!
So I shake my fist and type to the editor. "Abe" Simpson strikes again!
Assange is the real deal. Wikileaks real journalism. You and I are "Abe"

Facts. I do like having them. So I will find out what I can about what you have presented.
Good to see the other sides point of view. However the points about bad character are of no interest.
Now lies are a different thing.

He's a narcissisitic prick who was too cowardly to go back to Sweden to face sexual abuse charges.
You might like these people that are full of themselves, put other people's lives at risk, care only for themselves have an ego that excludes all others and think they are God's gift... me? Not at all.
You sir... are in total denial.

@Lightman I really do know that you hate Assange with a passion. That's fine with me.
Wikileaks We both agree is truthful. You believe those truths delivered by Wikileaks are treasonous (He is not a US citizen).
I believe that truth is the only way to short circuit the state of constant and neverending war that exists now.
I am not going to condemn or defend the personal attributes of Assange. It has no bearing.
I'm afraid your way is just reapeating history over and over.

@adriaan23 don't hate him with a passion... just know he's a narcissistic prick and isn't worth my time of day or any one else's.
I've never said anything about treason... he's an Australian citizen unfortunately and a poor excuse for one. What he did was irresponsible and dangerous to those named. That's the truth them's the facts.
You can ignore the truth all you like...

*Former Friends Ask WikiLeaks Founder: Where's the Money?
Ex-colleagues question Julian Assange's ego, use of funds; launch rival website.

*Young said Assange had always hoped to be put behind bars, as a way to further establish his fame, like a marketing tool.

  • Said Young, "He was trained as an actor and he has a wonderful speaking voice. He works on his appearance, he works on his slow speaking thing. He loves to provoke people, he loves to make dramatic statements. He loves to be thrown in jail. He'll love to have a show trial."

Assange's critics want to know what happened to the $50,000 that was supposed to go to Pfc. Manning's defense fund.

Said Birgitta Jonsdottir, a member of Iceland's parliament, "It was irresponsible in a sense for WikiLeaks to call the people to donate money for the Bradley defense. And not deliver."

Hello there. Wow! You've been investigating a lot on Assange! Kinda eye-opening. There is always the other side of the coin, always.

@Naomi Not with Assange he's a narcissistic prick. BTW I've always know this stuff... just takes a bit of time to find it on the web.

@Lightman I meant that Assange being a narcissistic prick is the other side of the coin, because he is usually regarded as a free-speech hero.

@Naomi Only by Leftists and those who know nothing about him. They aint the majority here,

$50000 for Pfc Manning's defense? The bill was going to be $100000 and you say Assange offered $50000. The amount for Mannings defense Topped $125000 within 48 hours.
Now if you asked Me to give you $100 for an overdue water bill and I offered you $50 but later you got $125 from others would you still want the $50?
In any case, Wikileaks still gave $15000. Context is a killer!
It's a long list, so I shall do a bit at a time.

@adriaan23 Do some research and read the article.... it quotes the figures you mention and explains them.
Still Assange is a narcissistic prick... nothing will change that or apparently your support for narcissistic pricks.

@Lightman Not interested in narcissism.

@adriaan23 Oh yes you are....

Your editorial on WikiLeaks goes on and on about the hacking of Hillary Clinton’s e-mails. There is much more to be said about WikiLeaks and Julian Assange than that.

Throwing out batches of information for all to see, without any idea what’s in there and who could be harmed or killed, is highly irresponsible. Those who do that are not heroes.

Why did you not mention WikiLeaks carelessly releasing the names of our CIA agents across the globe, or publishing information about the Afghans who helped us in our battles against the Taliban, leaving them (and their families) at risk of being killed? Assange is a despicable human being.

Assange is a blinkered zealot, a conspiracy theorist, a narcissist and a nut. He has the politics of a teenage boy who has read too much Chomsky (which is any Chomsky).

REPORTER: The decision to dump the unredacted cables drew fierce criticism.

ALAN RUSBRIDGER, EDITOR, THE GUARDIAN, 1995 - 2015: It was obvious to us from the documents that there was that the people could be placed in a difficult, possibly dangerous, situation if you just dumped it all there.

P.J. CROWLEY, U.S. ASSISTANT SECRETARY OF STATE FOR PUBLIC AFFAIRS, 2009 - 2011:
He doesn't know. We can tell you that peoples' lives were uprooted. People were jailed. There are people who were subject to these reports who are now dead. Now, were they killed because of the leak? I can't say that. Were they killed because of what they were doing that came to the attention of another government? Quite possibly. But those are facts. There was real harm to real people as a result of what WikiLeaks did.

JULIA GILLARD, PRIME MINISTER OF AUSTRALIA, 2010-2013: I absolutely condemn the placemen t of this information on the WikiLeaks website. It is a grossly irresponsible thing to do, and an illegal thing to do.

0

P.J. CROWLEY, ASSISTANT SECRETARY OF STATE FOR PUBLIC AFFAIRS, 2009 - 2011: I mean, just dumping hundreds of thousands of documents into the public space, that's not whistle-blowing to me. A whistle-blower is someone who knows the information, understands it, and then can make an informed judgement that the compromise of that information, the benefit of that outweighs the risk and the harm. Julian Assange was in no position to make that judgement.

REPORTER: Did you get the sense that perhaps he didn't even care? I mean, I know there's that often quoted. That quote that you often used about him where he's apparently sitting with a Guardian journalist and he says, he's not worried about not removing the names of Afghans, because they're informants and if they get killed, well, they deserve it.

ALAN RUSBRIDGER, GUARDIAN EDITOR, 1995 - 2015: Well, I think if you are an information anarchist, which I think he is, then you think it's not my problem. He disputes that quote, but they're my colleagues and if they say he said it, I'm satisfied he said it.

REPORTER: Assange's dealings with Manning would later be one of the factors that lead to a bitter split in WikiLeaks.

DANIEL DOMSCHEIT-BERG, WIKILEAKS SPOKESPERSON 2007-2010: This is where I think on a next level, this was an abuse of responsibility maybe where you were milking a source. That's how I read that, and this is not something we should've been doing, or Julian should've been doing.

P.J. CROWLEY, U.S. ASSISTANT SECRETARY OF STATE FOR PUBLIC AFFAIRS, 2009 - 2011: I don't see Julian Assange as this great crusader of transparency. I see him as a reckless narcissist.

*Julian Assange Got What He Deserved

Don’t continue to fall for his phony pleas for sympathy, his megalomania, and his promiscuity with the facts.

*Assange allegedly attempted to help Manning do this using a username that was not hers in an effort to cover her virtual tracks. In other words, the U.S. accuses him of instructing her to hack the Pentagon, and offering to help. This is not an undertaking any working journalist should attempt without knowing that the immediate consequence will be the loss of his job, his reputation, and his freedom at the hands of the FBI.

  • I might further direct you to Assange’s own unique brand of journalism, when he could still be said to be practicing it. Releasing U.S. diplomatic communiqués that named foreigners living in conflict zones or authoritarian states and liaising with American officials was always going to require thorough vetting and redaction, lest those foreigners be put in harm’s way. Assange did not care—he wanted their names published, according to Luke Harding and David Leigh in WikiLeaks: Inside Julian Assange’s War on Secrecy. As they recount the story, when Guardian journalists working with WikiLeaks to disseminate its tranche of U.S. secrets tried to explain to Assange why it was morally reprehensible to publish the names of Afghans working with American troops, Assange replied: “Well, they’re informants. So, if they get killed, they’ve got it coming to them. They deserve it.” (Assange denied the account; the names, in the end, were not published in The Guardian, although some were by WikiLeaks in its own dump of the files.)

Fish and guests might begin to stink after three days, but Assange has reeked from long before he stepped foot in his hideaway cubby across from Harrods. He has put innocent people’s lives in danger; he has defamed and tormented a poor family whose son was murdered; he has seemingly colluded with foreign regimes not simply to out American crimes but to help them carry off their own; and he otherwise made that honorable word transparency in as much of a need of delousing as he is.

Yet none of these vices has landed him in the dock. If he is innocent of hacking U.S. government systems—or can offer a valid public-interest defense for the hacking—then let him have his day in court, first in Britain and then in America. But don’t continue to fall for his phony pleas for sympathy, his megalomania, and his promiscuity with the facts. Julian Assange got what he deserved.

He was an ardent WikiLeaks supporter. Then he got to know Julian Assange.
A conversation with British journalist Andrew O’Hagan, former ghostwriter for Assange.

there are some humdingers in there about Assange and his personality by people who knew him firsthand.

Not just my opinion which was formed after years of noticing him and his behaviour...

[theguardian.com]

Assange branded a 'narcissist' by judge who found him guilty
WikiLeaks founder’s claim he’d been denied a fair hearing were called ‘laughable’ in court.
WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has been labelled a “narcissist” by a judge as he was found guilty of skipping bail after spending nearly seven years holed up in the Ecuadorian embassy.
Judge Snow said: “His assertion that he has not had a fair hearing is laughable. And his behaviour is that of a narcissist who cannot get beyond his own selfish interests.”***

[nytimes.com]

[smh.com.au]
London: Julian Assange has been found guilty of skipping bail and slammed by a British judge as a "narcissist... who cannot get beyond his own selfish interest".

The WikiLeaks founder was arrested on Thursday shortly after Ecuador ended his six-and-a-half-year political asylum in their London embassy for "discourteous and aggressive behaviour" and WikiLeaks' "hostile and threatening declarations" against Ecuador.
Sporting a man-bun, beard and moustache, Assange appeared in court in a dark jacket and held up a book by Gore Vidal on the history of the national security state. He saluted and gave a thumbs up to the public gallery.

What a total egotistical prick and you support this bozo.... ROTFLMAO

“We are now going to do everything we possibly can to get the Swedish police investigation re-opened so that Assange can be extradited to Sweden and prosecuted for rape,” she said. “No rape victim should have to wait nine years to see justice be served.”

Sweden’s prosecutor’s office said it had appointed a deputy prosecutor to review the request to reopen the investigation. In a statement, the office said the preliminary investigation into the rape allegation could be re-opened at any time until August 2020, when it lapses under a statute of limitations.

What a coward.

Assange is a narcissistic prick.... just why do you keep on about him, most thinking Australians recognise this from his history and behavior...

We do not agree about Assange and that's fine but I very much doubt that You speak for thinking Australians.

Sure but who else?

I'll just point out that "narcissistic prick" does not preclude one from being a planetary treasure. We're desperate for truth, and regardless of how he doles it out, it delivers.

@adriaan23 Spoken like a true Aussie.

@JordanMiller "I'll just point out that "narcissistic prick" does not preclude one from being a planetary treasure. We're desperate for truth, and regardless of how he doles it out, it delivers."
It does in my book he's simply a hacker with no clue of responsibility, he's all ego its all about him and to hell with everyone else even those people whose deaths he may initiate.

@JordanMiller, @adriaan23 Oh I'm very much a thinking Australian thanks and I don't like narcissistic pricks... apparently you do.

All delivered by men, actually. Complained about by women.
