    I dont consider the release of any government secrets that SHOULD be public to be ‘tattle tale’-ing.

    Can you detail his agenda, so that I can know what you’re meaning?

      Wikileaks and Assange have both tried to sell themselves as whistle blowers fighting for truth and while they have revealed evil and wrongdoing. They utilize Russian information networks and specifically place focus on the US.

      In anyone reasonable’s eyes you would tell Assange isn’t a whistle blower, he is a player in the game and WikiLeaks is literally just another propaganda outlet like the rest of them that tries to act differently.
