"I Pled Guilty to Journalism": WikiLeaks' Julian Assange Speaks Publicly After Prison Release

[Oopsie Daisy]

3. Cry me a fucking river, Julian. 😭😢😭 He belongs in prison.

He's no journalist! He's no victim, no martyr. He's now playing the pity-card... poor me... boo-hoo!

There's a reason that we have laws in place to protect (prevent) unauthorized disclosure of information. It's illegal and punishable. Exposing military and diplomatic secrets can jeopardize the safety of individuals, including sources, informants, and military personnel.

The wholesale disclosure of sensitive information can compromise ongoing military operations. Also diplomatic operations. It can disrupt intelligence-gathering efforts. It can get assets and informants killed. It totally undermines national security strategies.

And, of course, leave it to "Democracy Now!" to present his comments in full, without any explanation of what he did and the consequences of his actions and the reasons he he was jailed. They were noticeably and obviously silent when it comes to presenting all the information. They're perfectly happy with just presenting one side and portraying him as a victim.

What he did, and what he advocates, leads harm and loss of life. What he did benefits nations and governments who are hostile to the United States. So, naturally "Democracy Now!" is singing his praises and giving him free, unchallenged air-time to promote his agenda.

He's a traitor, guilty of espionage. Not a journalist, not a whistleblower. That SOB deserved to serve all 175 years.
