GORDON DUFF: SELLING WIKILEAKS, SELLING HATE FOR AMERICA
November 30, 2010 posted by Gordon Duff · 18 Comments


JULIAN ASSANGE, THE NEW “YASSER ARAFAT”
By Gordon Duff STAFF WRITER/Senior Editor

(With commentary by Steve Johnson)


Wikileaks has divided the world into two camps, those who love Wikileaks as a slap in the face for the United States and those who recognize the stench of Wikileaks for what it is, simple Israeli propaganda. Millions around the world look at Wikleaks as poor, harried Julian Assange and his personal struggle against the evil empire of Bush/Obama America. Hate, envy, oh, there is lots of envy here, America stimulates that with its highways filled with gas guzzling cars, eating half the world’s meat, all the best music, television and a military that scares the begeezus out of everyone. What’s not to hate?

Many American’s are buying in on this hate. Journalist Arnaud de Borchgrave calls these people “self hating Americans.” He has, at times, coined me their leader. Consider this my resignation. There is nothing in Wikileaks about fixing problems. Wikileaks is cheap sleazy marketing, cheap junk in a shiny package. The biggest challenge of all had to be marketing Julian Assange. Assange began life as a reputed computer hacker though never punished. This is where the smell begins. Other hackers waste away in prison, not Assange. Assange seems to have a guardian angel.

BRADLEY MANNING, ASSANGE'S REPUTED "INSIDE MAN" IN THE PENTAGON
Then you have the heroic Julian Assange, first the poor harried gay-boy, getting America’s secrets from his boyfriend in the Pentagon, Assange, wicked, mysterious and somewhat sleazy and his cohort, boyish, Midwestern, obviously seduced into betraying his country. This was how it began to play out, a fiction of course, as there was no boyfriend and there were no leaks. It was all an invention, a myth, cheap marketing, selling Wikileaks, building a brand for it as though it were pantyhose or a cold remedy made out of rat poison.

The leaks themselves started as inane, then went to “youtube forgettable.” On any given day, more hits the mainstream press, with the alternative news or, better yet, the “fringe” press exceeding Wikileaks, certainly in quality. Wikileaks began as reprocessed new stories and chickenfeed, all “gussied up” through what is commonly called a “guerrilla marketing” program, the same way the movie Blair Witch Project was sold. There was one catch, however. The mainstream news was all over Wikileaks, when it was nothing, when they leaked nothing, almost as though they had received orders from above to sell Wikileaks because it was going to be needed for something later.
