What Goes Around Comes Around

Assange Furious.

Reading yesterday's Times newspaper I couldn't help but laugh when I read the following headline "Assange fury as police file on sex claims is leaked online". It seems that the Wikileaks founder thinks it is ok to leak items which he feels the public have a right to know about, and that is all fine. But when something is leaked about him in connection with two counts of sexual assault all of a sudden that is something of a wrong thing. Is it in the public interest for use to read about this guy trying to force himself on two girls, or does this bloke not want his credibility to be questioned. As far as I am concerned he has no credibility. He and his organisation have set back diplomacy a long way. Wikileaks clearly has no real idea how diplomacy is conducted.

I couldn't care less if he is guilty or not of the crimes he is accused of. But he thinks it is ok for him to ruin many diplomats' reputations and in many cases loose them their jobs but that is just fine and dandy. But as soon as the content of his lack of character is brought into question the rules seemed to have miraculously changed. These types of leaks are fine for him when the people he is ruining are distant far off anonymous people with no faces, but when it comes a lot closer to home it is somehow a very bitter pill to swallow. I wish to remind Mr. Assange if you can't take it, then you shouldn't dish it out. I am also reminded of one of my best friend's favourite sayings "the emptiest vessels do tend to make the most noise".

As far as I am concerned it wasn't in the public interest to leak these classified documents. And I hope that he will get his comeuppance and finally end up deported to the United States and face the limit of their laws for the alleged crimes that he will face trial for. He seems to think that there should be no consequences for the more than dubious actions he has taken, disclosing sensitive and highly classified documents. All he has succeeded in doing is angering the most powerful government in the world. And I am no expert but that is an incredibly dumb thing to do.

So if this twat is angry about the file on the sex allegation charges being leaked then I couldn't give a flying fuck if he is upset, and nor could the numerous diplomats whose lives he has ruined. And this could be the ultimate case of what goes around comes around.
