no the real douches are bush/cheney and all the others who 1) prey on ignorant young people and trick them into sacrificing/wasting their lives going to afghanistan/iraq and 2) go around illegally invading foreign countries and making this country hated around the world

Second, what proof do you have? The SecDef says they didn't.

Well, to be realistic, I'm pretty sure Gates isn't going to come out and say, "Look at these documents right here! These are incredibly sensitive and compromise our combat operations!" His response is pretty pat - when you've been hurt, you don't let your opponent know or he'll just continue to exploit your weak spot. Conversely, when you're not hurt you try and falsely hint at vulnerabilities that aren't there. All part of the game.

And anyway, we didn't execute (actual charged and convicted of various crimes) US military personnel in the 70-80's, when several people passed to military secrets (real secrets) to the USSR.

Many of those people weren't executed because as a condition to avoid the death penalty they agreed to spill their guts about their contacts and handlers - they had info which was useful. Assange doesn't. Although I gotta say that it is a little disturbing to advocate killing the guy - he's just doing what his nature is. If we tried to kill everyone that had ill will toward the U.S., wel, we could spend our way out of recession just on ammunition production.

I could see hanging his source from the rafters, though. I wouldn't shed any tears over that.

America. Money matters.

Your defending a country which is founded on basic human rights by denying those rights to people you don't like? You're either a moron or purposefully being obtuse. I'll go with the latter.

People matter more.
Not to many. Anyway, if the individual is going to put himself above and beyond the state then he does not matter. This wikileaks guy thinks he's doing everyone a service when he isn't. He isn't even an American citizen.

I think Narmer is just trolling again, because he can't seriously believe all these posts he writes.
