Is Wikileaks a black flag operation?
With the ongoing "leaks" of American diplomatic messages by Wikileaks, I got to thinking about why would someone do this.
"Follow the money" is usually my first port of call.
I think Assange has been turned. His previous form in hacking and attempts to circumvent computer security has led me to beelive that he is turning tricks for his former tormentors and accusers. He has experience of manipulating and working with anonymous hacking organisations, that knowledge would be worth a fortune in order to create mayhem.
How useful would it be to have a supposed independent organisation working to propagate propaganda? Get the little people, and the equally small-minded main-stream media into a flap about National Security, and you have further need to address the manufactured problem of spies and secret agents.
Got to give them credit, whoever is pulling the strings at Wikileaks is playing a blinder. Assange has been arrested and denied bail in order to keep him away from other journalists. If he's locked up somewhere safe, nobody can ask him awkward questions. If maintains the veil of secrecy and that, most importantly, "something is being seen to be done" by the powers that be.
