Fighting the Mainstream Media Machine - Revealing the Truth about WikiLeaks and Julian Assange

Zenpundit.com recently posted an article titled Martyrdom, messianism and Julian Assange.  The title speaks for itself.  At the end, I was mildly disturbed by one reader's comment and felt compelled to respond.

The comment- "Your need to destroy Assange is getting embarrassing. Why not make lemonaid?"  My response-

People have to learn the real story behind this media-created character Julian Assange. It is not embarrassing to go "on alert" when something is obviously wrong with someone or something. In fact, it is natural and correct to alert others to a dangerous situation. Make no mistake, the WikiLeaks situation (and Julian Assange) is dangerous - for reasons you will not see reported in the mainstream media.  Links-

Keep up the great work Zenpundit - you are on the right track.

Note: In the first linked article above, pay special attention to the quote from Andy Greenberg which was published in a Forbes article.
"Admire him or revile him, WikiLeaks’ Julian Assange is the prophet of a coming age of involuntary transparency, the leader of an organization devoted to divulging the world’s secrets using technology unimagined a generation ago."
People must maintain perspective -

"Prophet of a coming age of involuntary transparency"? Assange is a guy with a web site. The real story here should be about the data - and who is helping Assange - not Assange himself.
