I think Palin is right that after the first wikileaks fiasco was done that Obama should have ordered to pursue the wikileaks founder like we do with Al-Qaeda and the Taliban. I believe that this guy is a enemy of the state releasing these classified materials. The left has misinterpreted her facebook posting as thought she wants this man wacked. She put her facebook comments up at 12:17pm today and within 2 hours the left is attacking her and insinuating she wants the man killed when she said no such thing.
All she said was this:
"First and foremost, what steps were taken to stop Wikileaks director Julian Assange from distributing this highly sensitive classified material especially after he had already published material not once but twice in the previous months? Assange is not a journalist, any more than the editor of al Qaedas new English-language magazine Inspire is a journalist. He is an anti-American operative with blood on his hands. His past posting of classified documents revealed the identity of more than 100 Afghan sources to the Taliban. Why was he not pursued with the same urgency we pursue al Qaeda and Taliban leaders?"
Does Palin Want to Whack Assange? - The Note
In her latest foray into the national discussion about Wikilleaks, Sarah Palin seems to open the door to the idea that the U.S. Government should have considered a targeted hit on Wilileaks founder Julian Assange.
SNIP~
But in the most eyebrow-raising section of the posting, Palin writes of Assange, Why was he not pursued with the same urgency we pursue al Qaeda and Taliban leaders?
Given that the U.S. regularly targets suspected Al Qaeda leaders with missile or drone strikes, is she suggesting that Assange should have been whacked?
