This has nothing to do with national security. It has everything to do with making our government transparent. Every American has a right to know what the government is doing and why. Last time I checked we live in a democracy (kind of), not a totalitarian government.

Fear the military-industrial-complex.

If he doesn't "resist arrest" and get himself shot twice to the temple.

Wow sure sucks when somebody reads through your private papers without probable cause. Good thing the government never listens to cell phone calls, never looks at what websites you go to, never reads your email and never checks to see what books you check out of the library without probable cause or a warrant.

Gentlemen do not read other gentlemen's mail. So if our government behaves like a gentleman, this guy is scum. However if out government is doing corrupt and immoral things then there is probable cause to look into what they are doing and this guy is a hero. Although it may not have been officially sanctioned, Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?

I'm sure that the government is all sunshine flowers and candy, there is no reason for any oversight of them at all.

Funny thing is that this guy will probably be locked up before he drops the banking bombshell. Since we already know that banks were lying in court to fraudulently steal people's houses and we know that the banks recklessly destroyed our economy, I wonder what that banking megaleak is all about. I bet we won't see it. The government knew in advance he was going to leak these diplomatic documents and did nothing. After all risking the lives of a few plebs in our military is not really a concern to the government at all, mess with the big bankers who own this country, well that's unforgivable.

It's often hard to see where our government starts and where the military-industrial-banking mafia stops.
