Assange Complains of Jewish Smear Campaign

LONDON - The WikiLeaks founder, Julian Assange, suggested in comments published on Tuesday that British journalists, including the editor of The Guardian newspaper, were engaged in a Jewish-led conspiracy to smear his organization.

This guy's delusional paranoia is finally showing through.

I do not trust Assange any more than Hislop, but it still one's word against the others.

I do not much like Assgange, and I dislike Shamir who I think is a publicity seeking troll, but whether I like them or not is irrelevant.

But isn't the truth what wikileaks is about?

Yes that's why it has so many people scared. We live in a new era where antisocial actions of governments and corporations (of all countries) will be harder to keep secret. Keeping the masses ignorant and docile through propaganda will be more difficult. Corruption will be a more dangerous enterprise for crooks in power. Whether Assange is a decent guy or not in his personal life is pretty much irrelevant at this point. Wikileaks offer protection for whistle blowers, and Facebook / Twitter are helping grass root movements take off. Just look at the changes happening in the middle east these days.

People have made this prediction about the internet for a long time and it's finally delivering.

It is true that despite that anti-Semitic, anti-USA ramblings of an alleged rapist, Assange - the truth is what matters.

However, it has already been proven that Wikileaks staff have faked documents that they have released.

These folks have a political agenda and truth is the least of their goals.

During an appearance on Echo Moskvy radio, Yulia Latynina, a reporter at the independent newspaper Novaya Gazeta, wondered; What does it mean that Assange is allowing himself to be represented by an extremist? Latynina also found that the Kremlin-friendly paper working with Shamir to promote the WikiLeaks material had already published outright lies Shamir claimed were supported by leaks. According to Latynina, Shamir faked a cable related to Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's speech to the United Nations, which supposedly showed collusion amongst those who walked out of the talk in protest. That he would invent such a cable is perhaps unsurprising, considering Shamir has previously written an encomium to the brave and charismatic leader of Iran.

WikiLeaks fake cables; Pakistani newspapers admit they were hoaxed

@frontpage, your own link contradicts your comment. Read the guardian story: the cables were not faked by Wikileaks. The fake cables came from another source which falsely claimed they were on Wikileaks:

A search of unpublished cables in the WikiLeaks database proved the claims to be entirely baseless, and by this morning two of the five papers that published the story hurriedly retracted it. The exact source of the claims is murky.

The absurdity of the fake story is heightened by the fact that the real WikiLeaks contradict some of the more outlandish claims.

It is the people who are out to get Wikileaks who have an agenda and who are making stuff up.

Making stuff up, hardly. You did not understand what I wrote.

It was not until reporters referenced the Wikileaks database that they realized that fake documents had been passed.

Wikileaks staffers faked diplomatic documents and tried to pass them off as authentic.

According to Latynina, Shamir faked a cable related to Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's speech to the United Nations,

You know Shamir, right? Shamir is on the Wikileaks staff. In fact, here is a photo of Assange and Israel Shamir.

According to reports in the Swedish and Russian media, the broad strokes of which have been confirmed by a WikiLeaks spokesman, Shamir serves as the group's content aggregator in Russia, the man who "selects and distributes" the cables to Russian news organizations, according to an investigation by Swedish public radio. In the newspaper Expressen, Magnus Ljunggren, an emeritus professor of Russian literature at Gothenburg University, outlined Shamir's close ties to WikiLeaks and his position "spreading the documents in Russia."

I guess its just a grand conspiracy to have world wide media label your Shamir a holocaust denier and fabricator of Wikileaks documents. I did not make this up, this is published fact.
