They also disclosed the secret password he had given the paper in confidence, which was designed to protect a digital file containing the US embassy cables
There was no scandal exposed by Wikileaks and Private Manning. Just a huge indiscriminate release of classified diplomatic briefs given to Ambassadors, General Consuls, etc.
the anti-Russia racism
Lol, what?
the growing anti-China campaign
Apart from the occasional opposition mentioned to the South China Sea dispute with those artificial islands, there is no 'campaign' against China that I'm aware of.
The Guardian's campaign against the WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange is the most disturbing
Wikileaks is clearly a pro-Russian intelligence propaganda outlet. That's why
nothing anti-Putin is ever investigated & exposed by them. We have a few hints that are general public knowledge like Putin's adoption of the Russian oligarchs and Russia's Mafia, money laundering & Putin's corruption. Not ONCE has Wikileaks even launched an investigation, never mind exposure, of these things.
Why?
Also Assange isn't the angel he portrayed himself as. Like that files are filtered (he's threatened to release
wholesale documents as blackmail
without filtering) and he is not an 'editor-at-large' but uses Wikileaks as
a cover for a playboy lifestyle. If he was in business or a politician, he'd be at least before a court for wilful misconduct, if not more serious corruption charges.
Assange now trapped in the Ecuadorean embassy
He isn't 'trapped' he sought asylum there, was granted, then uses it to breach the terms from a balcony and download child porn (allegedly).
