Ukraine: Why the Pentagon and the CIA Hate Julian Assange
Ukraine: Why the Pentagon and the CIA Hate Julian Assange by Jacob G. Hornberger As most everyone knows, the hatred that U.S. officials have for Julian Assange has no bounds. For years, they have relentlessly and obsessively done everything they can to destroy, isolate, persecute, prosecute, incarcerate, torture, and hound the guy to death. They have even contemplated assassinating him through their omnipotent, dark-side, non-reviewable power of assassination, a power that the U.S. national-security establishment wields and exercises on a regular basis without any interference by the federal judiciary or the Congress. Why do they hate Assange so much? Because he disclosed to the American people dark-side secrets of the U.S. national-security establishment. In a national-security state form of governmental structure, that is among the gravest offenses that a person can ever commit. Consider, for ex ample, a certain cable that Assange’s organization WikiLeaks revealed to the world.
