Pentagon In Manhunt For Wikileaks Founder - Fear Massive Release of Classified Documents

From the Daily Beast:
Anxious that Wikileaks may be on the verge of publishing a batch of secret State Department cables, investigators are desperately searching for founder Julian Assange. Philip Shenon reports.

Pentagon investigators are trying to determine the whereabouts of the Australian-born founder of the secretive website Wikileaks for fear that he may be about to publish a huge cache of classified State Department cables that, if made public, could do serious damage to national security, government officials tell The Daily Beast.

The officials acknowledge that even if they found the website founder, Julian Assange, it is not clear what they could do to block publication of the cables on Wikileaks, which is nominally based on a server in Sweden and bills itself as a champion of whistleblowers.

Yuh-huh. Maybe we could get this "whistle-blower" champion jerk to "leak" all the shocking, unsavory facts about Islam/the Krayon/Muhammed, etc., that nobody seems to know about when they're whining about "Islamophobia". If he's not too busy trying to help Muslim kill us, of course.

That's a very good idea.

I think anyone can post on Wikileaks, can they not?

I'm sure the Left's cheering this fella on just like they did with the fella behind the Pentagon Papers...and I bet Daniel Ellsberg must be happy to see that someone like this is appeasing Islamic supremacists.

JP -- Not sure how it works, but took a look and I notice they put Scientology's UK 2008 financial statement up. So why not just load up the Krayon and a few choice fatwas? What's good for one cult full of a-holes is good for an even bigger one.

I think so, RRA.

I'm glad you thought of this idea.

Do you want to post it, or should I?
