Wikileaks Nonsense

As I’m sitting here at work on the usual sub-par Monday I notice all the breaking news surrounding the thousands of Wikileaks documents that were published.  Fox News is usually what is on the projector screen during normal business hours.  I’ve noticed several times throughout the day were they will flash fancy colors and come across the screen with “News Alert”.  For me personally the news just makes me laugh.  They act like they just got a hold of some brand new critical information that NO ONE knows about.

If you take a minute to think about how much control the leaders of the world have it is certainly not far fetched to imagine they have control over the media.  What I really found amusing was seeing the world leaders and politicians around the globe that are condemning the leak of the documents and downplaying some of what they are saying.  If there is something leaked in the media I’m absolutely convinced the only way it is leaked is because the powers that be ALLOWED the information to get out.  The bigger mystery would always have to come back to why?  Here are just a few excerpts of the allegations that were supposedly “leaked”.

— Saudi King Abdullah urged the United States to attack Iran to halt its nuclear program, warning that if Tehran were to go nuclear, other countries in the region would, too.

— The United States keeps bombers ready to strike al Qaeda targets in Yemen if “actionable intelligence becomes available.”

— The U.S. ambassador to Zimbabwe predicted in July 2007 that President Robert Mugabe would soon be out of power, saying, “The End is Nigh.” Mugabe remains president, although he is now in a power-sharing agreement with the former opposition.

The leaked papers also include what seems to be an order from Clinton to American diplomats to engage in intelligence-gathering.

In the order, Clinton directs her envoys at embassies around the world to collect information ranging from basic biographical data on diplomats to their frequent flyer and credit card numbers, and even “biometric information on ranking North Korean diplomats.”

To me it all seems like smoke and mirrors… lies and deception.  So when some breaking news comes across the tele it makes me wonder what exactly they’re trying to distract us from.  Almost impossible to tell exactly what it could be, but it definitely gets the wheels turning.  Don’t be another mindless sheep in the the herd!!!
