Drama Queen Julian Protests Release of His Secrets

Petard meet Hoist. The man who made a moral crusade in exposing government secrets no matter how petty is positively petulant that his secrets have become public fodder.

He accused his media partners at The Guardian newspaper, which worked with him to make the embarrassing leaks public, of unfairly tarnishing him by revealing damaging details of the sex assault allegations he faces in Sweden…

Speaking from a Suffolk mansion where he is confined on bail, the 39-year-old Australian said that the decision to publish incriminating police files about him was “disgusting.” The Guardian had previously used him as its source for hundreds of leaked US embassy cables.

Assange was understood to be particularly angry with a senior reporter at the paper and former friend, for “selectively publishing” incriminating sections of the police report, although The Guardian made clear that the WikiLeaks founder was given several days to respond.

Sound familiar? It should. Assange tried to help justify his release of secret State Department cables by saying that he gave the Department a change to respond.

Assange’s sexual secrets have turned the moralizing David into a whining, sexually stunted douchebag.

The lesson? Never trust a man who speaks about himself in the 3rd person. Ever.

UPDATE: Assange: A legend in his own mind. “I am Danger, Achtung.”
