Greenwald to Reuters: "many more revelations on spying by the U.S. government" to come [View all] 99th_Monkey Aug 2013 OP

Probably not wise to announce these things in advance. Julian Assange made that mistake sabrina 1 Aug 2013 #1

I quite agree, about making such "announcements" in advance of "new revelations" 99th_Monkey Aug 2013 #4

Well, I think he meant that Snowden only sent the leaks to both of them. He did say sabrina 1 Aug 2013 #16

As I said down-string, I understood Snowden to say months ago ... 99th_Monkey Aug 2013 #33

Maybe Assange is actually a pervert who tried to rape somebody Cali_Democrat Aug 2013 #8

You know 'many people who think he is a saint'?? Wow, no one I know ever viewed him as sabrina 1 Aug 2013 #15

OK Cali_Democrat Aug 2013 #19

Wrong again. The arrest warrant has nothing to do with ' charges of rape' a word so overused in this sabrina 1 Aug 2013 #27

Hahahaha Cali_Democrat Aug 2013 #29

But but Heeessss Diiiirrrrtttyyy! hootinholler Aug 2013 #25

Why doesn't Greenwald just hand them over to Wikileaks? nt geek tragedy Aug 2013 #5

I understood Snowden to say 99th_Monkey Aug 2013 #7

But, why not just crowdsource it to Wikileaks and Assange? nt geek tragedy Aug 2013 #9

That I don't know. 99th_Monkey Aug 2013 #10

Because the spotlight won't be on GREENWALD if he does it that way. CakeGrrl Aug 2013 #18

And he lives in Brazil and he has boxes in his garage, no, that is the other guy sabrina 1 Aug 2013 #42

No one is "smearing" Greenwald. He's putting himself in the spotlight CakeGrrl Aug 2013 #62

Perhaps he is trying not to do harm Mojorabbit Aug 2013 #34

Bradley Manning wasn't so secretive--he sent a lot more documents geek tragedy Aug 2013 #36

Which was not the best way to handle it. nt Mojorabbit Aug 2013 #38

And look what happened to Manning. bvar22 Aug 2013 #44

Well, Manning didn't leave the country . . . nt geek tragedy Aug 2013 #50

That was his 2nd Mistake. bvar22 Aug 2013 #56

Okay, so maybe he knew that Wikileaks is under surveillance due to the Wall St. Criminals sabrina 1 Aug 2013 #37

Do you really think bogging people down in endless babble bolsters your argument? Cali_Democrat Aug 2013 #41

I got it now: sabrina 1 Aug 2013 #45

That poster proved you wrong Cali_Democrat Aug 2013 #46

Because he wants to control the narrative? N/T War Horse Aug 2013 #23

"writing about what in the documents the public should know " geek tragedy Aug 2013 #28

Funny I would have thought that you of all people, would know the answer to that question sabrina 1 Aug 2013 #49

Wikileaks took a lot of heat on this site Maedhros Aug 2013 #54

So how would he know these are 'revelations' if he hadn't already reviewed them? randome Aug 2013 #64

K&R, good to hear quinnox Aug 2013 #24

I just hope "they" don't resort to a false flag 99th_Monkey Aug 2013 #30

Greenwald should probably avoid small planes quinnox Aug 2013 #39

Yes. that too. 99th_Monkey Aug 2013 #43
