what a screwed up individual
The Daily Mail quotes WikiLeaks: Inside Assange's War on Secrecy as claiming Julian Assange, told international reporters: 'Well, they're informants so, if they get killed, they've got it coming to them. They deserve it.' The book continues: 'There was, for a moment, silence around the table.'
Silence, indeed.
What distinction, pray tell, does Assange draw between "informant" and "whistle-blower"?
The truth is, he's not a whistle-blower at heart, but an anarchist with meglomaniac tendencies. Sadly, I doubt there is any legal basis for requiring that Assange receive the mental health assistance that he clearly needs. That, and a moral compass -- because while anyone has the right to be an anarchist (much as I disdain same), they should at least be ethical about it.
