The Bible Spice Solution to Wikileaks - declare war on Europe.
Edited on Mon Nov-29-10 06:21 PM by TheBigotBasher
Fookin Nora can someone please tell Palin James Bond is not for real. Could someone also remind it that the last person of her ilk to try and invade Europe - LOST.


We all applaud the successful thwarting of the Christmas-Tree Bomber and hope our government continues to do all it can to keep us safe. However, the latest round of publications of leaked classified U.S. documents through the shady organization called Wikileaks raises serious questions about the Obama administration’s incompetent handling of this whole fiasco.

First and foremost, what steps were taken to stop Wikileaks director Julian Assange from distributing this highly sensitive classified material especially after he had already published material not once but twice in the previous months? Assange is not a “journalist,” any more than the “editor” of al Qaeda’s new English-language magazine Inspire is a “journalist.” He is an anti-American operative with blood on his hands. His past posting of classified documents revealed the identity of more than 100 Afghan sources to the Taliban. Why was he not pursued with the same urgency we pursue al Qaeda and Taliban leaders?

What if any diplomatic pressure was brought to bear on NATO, EU, and other allies to disrupt Wikileaks’ technical infrastructure? Did we use all the cyber tools at our disposal to permanently dismantle Wikileaks? Were individuals working for Wikileaks on these document leaks investigated? Shouldn’t they at least have had their financial assets frozen just as we do to individuals who provide material support for terrorist organizations?

Most importantly, serious questions must also be asked of the U.S. intelligence system. How was it possible that a 22-year-old Private First Class could get unrestricted access to so much highly sensitive information? And how was it possible that he could copy and distribute these files without anyone noticing that security was compromised?

The White House has now issued orders to federal departments and agencies asking them to take immediate steps to ensure that no more leaks like this happen again. It’s of course important that we do all we can to prevent similar massive document leaks in the future. But why did the White House not publish these orders after the first leak back in July? What explains this strange lack of urgency on their part?

We are at war. American soldiers are in Afghanistan fighting to protect our freedoms. They are serious about keeping America safe. It would be great if they could count on their government being equally serious about that vital task.

11. Where did she get the '100 sources' thing from?
I'm not inclined to believe that there's much truth to it, given its' source.

12. There is no truth to anything she says
except maybe good morning (and even then I would cross-check the time).

She has essentially declared war on Europe. Thank fook she is not in power. How do you deal with someone that stupid?

15. "[S]o much highly sensitive information . . . "
Edited on Wed Dec-01-10 06:52 PM by GrpCaptMandrake
My good friend, Matt Osborne, a throughly engaging writer, addressed the issue of the WikiLeaks documents' "sensitivity" in the wake of the GreatBigReallyScaryHissyFit being thrown in the ForProfit Media. Check this out, from his blog:

"Apart from a few interesting pins, these diplomatic cables are really an enormous haystack. Nothing is marked higher than SECRET NOFORN, an intelligence caveat about as exciting as Miller Lite bottles in a bar. Literally every serving member of the military is cleared for that caveat; I’ve worked with higher classifications myself"

Did Wiki Leak That So They Could Leak This

Reading Matt's analysis, it's pretty clear that GodzillaFromWasilla wouldn't know "highly sensitive information" if it ran over her on a snow machine. Like Mama used to say: "Beauty is only skin deep . . . but stupid goes clean to the bone!"
