I was recently browsing on Google.com, then I came across this live Q&A with Julian Assange on guardian.co.uk. I don't know if it's newsworthy or even worth posting, but I thought it would interesting. I find all this a little bit suspicious, but the interview seems informative; after all it is from Mr. Assange's perspective. The interview is live as we speak, so go check it out!






Note: I do apologize if old.

firstly doubt it'll actually be him... secondly wonder if we should bombard the person about being a psyop

Are you indicating a deception?

This isn't old, it's new: "Posted on Friday 3 December 2010 13.45 GMT"

Someone else pointed out in another thread his answer to the UFO question. He basically said that those cables about UFOs will be published, although he did not indicate when.

I hope it's soon.

Yes very interesting he did touch on the topic of ufo''s during his interview.

Mr Assange,have there ever been documents forwarded to you which deal with the topic of UFOs or extraterrestrials?
Julian Assange:
Many weirdos email us about UFOs or how they discovered that they were the anti-christ whilst talking with their ex-wife at a garden party over a pot-plant. However, as yet they have not satisfied two of our publishing rules.
1) that the documents not be self-authored;
2) that they be original.
However, it is worth noting that in yet-to-be-published parts of the cablegate archive there are indeed references to UFOs.

Ok, but he does say
"However, it is worth noting that in yet-to-be-published parts of the cablegate archive there are indeed references to UFOs."

we gotta get those cables! lol

I liked this question or more specifically how he refused to answer or even acknowledge it.

Julian.

I am a former British diplomat. In the course of my former duties I helped to coordinate multilateral action against a brutal regime in the Balkans, impose sanctions on a renegade state threatening ethnic cleansing, and negotiate a debt relief programme for an impoverished nation. None of this would have been possible without the security and secrecy of diplomatic correspondence, and the protection of that correspondence from publication under the laws of the UK and many other liberal and democratic states. An embassy which cannot securely offer advice or pass messages back to London is an embassy which cannot operate. Diplomacy cannot operate without discretion and the protection of sources. This applies to the UK and the UN as much as the US.

In publishing this massive volume of correspondence, Wikileaks is not highlighting specific cases of wrongdoing but undermining the entire process of diplomacy. If you can publish US cables then you can publish UK telegrams and UN emails.

My question to you is: why should we not hold you personally responsible when next an international crisis goes unresolved because diplomats cannot function.

Julian Assange:
If you trim the vast editorial letter to the singular question actually asked, I would be happy to give it my attention.

Hmm...
