The big news from the weekend is the new classified material dump from Wikileaks.  A quarter of a million U.S. Government Documents were distributed around the world, courtesy of girly man and serial rapist Julian Assange.

Sunday, the White House issued a statement, saying:

We condemn in the strongest terms the unauthorized disclosure of classified documents and sensitive national security information.

According to The New York Times, the Documents include revelations such as:

• A dangerous standoff with Pakistan over highly enriched uranium, presently in a nuclear reactor.
• American and South Korean officials have discussed the prospects for a unified Korea, should the North’s economic troubles and political transition lead the state to implode.
• Bargaining to empty the Guantanamo Bay prison.
• Suspicions of corruption in the Afghan government.
• A global computer hacking effort: China’s Politburo directed the intrusion into Google’s computer systems in that country, a Chinese contact told the American Embassy in Beijing in January.
• Mixed records against terrorism: Saudi donors remain the chief financiers of Sunni militant groups like Al Qaeda, and the tiny Persian Gulf state of Qatar, a generous host to the American military for years, was the “worst in the region” in counterterrorism efforts, according to a State Department cable.
• Vlad loves Silvio: American diplomats in Rome reported in 2009 on what their Italian contacts described as an extraordinarily close relationship between Vladimir V. Putin, the Russian prime minister, and Silvio Berlusconi, the Italian prime minister and business magnate, including “lavish gifts,” lucrative energy contracts and a “shadowy” Russian-speaking Italian go-between.
• Cables describe the United States’ failing struggle to prevent Syria from supplying arms to Hezbollah in Lebanon, which has amassed a huge stockpile since its 2006 war with Israel.
• Clashes with Europe over human rights: American officials sharply warned Germany in 2007 not to enforce arrest warrants for Central Intelligence Agency officers involved in a bungled operation in which an innocent German citizen with the same name as a suspected militant was mistakenly kidnapped and held for months in Afghanistan.

Wikileaks gave 251,287 cables,to the Times on the condition of anonymity. Many are unclassified, but, according to the Times,  none are marked “top secret”.   But some 11,000 are classified “secret,” 9,000 are labeled “noforn,” which is government-speak for documents considered too sensitive to be shared with any foreign government, while 4,000 are designated both secret and noforn.

The individual who supplied the documents to Assange, Pfc. Bradley Manning, is a certifiable wacko. That’s a medical term.

Even during his schooldays in his hometown of Crescent, Oklahoma, Bradley Manning clearly walked a different path than the other kids. He preferred hacking computer games instead of playing them, according to his former neighbors.   They also said that he was mouthy and hard-headed about politics, religion, and even about keeping religion out of politics.

He once derisively wrote in an e-mail, that his hometown had “more pews than people”.  While in school, Manning refused to recite the parts of the Pledge of Allegiance that referred to God or do homework assignments that involved the Scriptures. And if a teacher challenged his views, former classmates said, he gave them a bunch of lip back.

According to friends, Manning enlisted in the Army in 2007 in order to find some sort of direction for his life and to help to pay for college.

Somehow, he received a security clearance and trained as an intelligence analyst at Fort Huachuca, Ariz., before he was assigned to the Second Brigade 10th Mountain Division at Fort Drum, N.Y.

While deployed in Iraq, he was far less than a model soldier, receiving reprimands twice, once for assaulting an officer. He even wore custom dog tags that read Humanist…and he kept a fairy wand on his desk.

Per an article on wired.com, Manning said that he was lip-syncing to Lady Gaga as he downloaded all of the documents to Wikileaks.

I really do not wish to even think about what he might have been wearing at the time.

Manning was arrested for leaking classified information to unauthorized persons. He was brought into custody in Kuwait last June.

This last round of leaked documents presents to the world  a U.S. President whose Foreign Policy Initiative, in both concept and delivery, appears more disjointed than a rag doll.  As if the recent economically-driven trips by Obama to Asia and Europe were not embarrassing enough, now Hillary Clinton is having to apologize to all of our allies about the content of the sensitive material, now being plastered on the web and television sets, and in newspapers around the world.

The spin has already started from the Administration, in a feverish attempt to contain and diminish the damage that the two little weasels, Manning and Assange, have caused.  Obama’s problem is:  It’s too late.   He can’t put the Genie back into the bottle.

Now, this false messiah who was going to make the oceans rise and fall, and gather all the world’s nations onto a hillside and lead them in a chorus of I’d Like to Teach the World to Sing is being labelled as the most incompetent and ineffectual President that the world has seen in quite some time. 

On behalf of average Americans everywhere, all I can say to the rest of the world is: 

Welcome to the party, pal!

Ed. Note:  I realize that Assange is a citizen of Australia.  However, he has endangered that world’s safety through his actions, including that of his country.
