There’s something missing here.
WikiLeaks directs its activity against the United States, almost exclusively.
Not against, for example, the Chinese.
Were I in Chinese intelligence, I would set something like WikiLeaks up and enable damaging information to leak out.
WikiLeaks looks as if it is a convenient cover for something else altogether.
I’m not completely buying the cover story about how all this information got out.
Best,

I don’t buy it either. The kid is a fallguy. His handlers and others coordinating this are still out there.
Well, I think there are a lot of other explanations that are plausible, and yours could carry water. However, it is important to remember that the people who run Wikileaks are fanatically anti-American and anticapitalist. They think that the USA is the root of all the environmental and societal problems in the world today… to them, China doesn’t even rate.
That’s only because I haven’t had to live under Chinese regime. It reminds me of the satirical book “Protesting for Useful Idiots”. It’s pretty funny, and covers some interesting topics such as:
using children for maximum impact
best ways to compare Bush to Hitler
chance: should they rhyme or be true?
How to shut down your opponents when they start making sense
keeping the TV cameras away from the real wackos
plus: find out which SUVs can hold the most “no blood for oil” signs
(Also includes bonus “down with America” coloring book for kids!)
But it does have a red warning sticker on the front of the book that states WARNING: PROTESTING UNDER AN ACTUAL EVIL AND/OR REPRESSIVE GOVERNMENT MAY RESULT IN TORTURE, DISAPPEARANCE, OR DEATH.
The founders of the Wikileaks site have never had to live under actual evil or repressive government. They have no clue…
According to Ya’acov Lodzowick, Julian Assange is anti-American. WikiLeaks does not expose the world’s most repressive regimes - where that would do a lot of good. Its embarrasses the greatest democracy in the world. That’s all you need to know about that outfit.
Bingo.
Because the Chinese would send some folks out to kill them.
