I have to disagree with you, I dont feel they've signaled anything. Im so underwhelmed with what has been released so far that I have become jaded about future releases. I also feel he's doing harm with these little 'gossipy' releases that could hurt diplomatic communication between countries and for what?? Did a soldier need to risk going to jail for the rest of his life to release documents that basically boil down to playground name calling. Untill something worth the risk of all this comes out Im turned off by the whole thing.
I also personally dont like Assange. I feel he is enjoying this all for the wrong reasons, not as an 'awakening of the masses' but more of a way to make him famous. I find his answers to questions condescending and to me he comes off as someone who thinks they're better then everyone. He's the wrong face for his organization, they need someone warmer and more inviting. He comes off as a jerk a lot of the time.

Personally I think there is to much grey area in the gov. The US and all the world should not lie to each other. We should live as one species on Earth under no ruling power. Instead we would all be part of a helping power where no one is better or worse by birth but by actions. This is the only way to be, all other ways have been tried and do not work. The only thing we have found is within our circles our family is who we help, weather they are friends or blood there part of your family, your circle. Now with this aspect of living under TPTB we have small circles due to the corporatism world we where forced into.
Remove the ruling power, expand your circle and become a helping power. The ruling power is but 1% of the world where the helping power is 100% of the world.
Do you only want to help 1% of your family?

I don't think Julian Assange wants this to be about him. I agree with your main overall point though. The last time we had a leader for the resistance movement was when we had Alex Jones as the cult leader and he's kind of discredited himself in the past year. So we've been kind of looking for someone else to do it- but if TPTB get Assange, or if he exposes himself in some way or another, we'd just be back to where we were before.

Assange in the pilots seat? Hope he can steer from behind bars, or in hiding.

I honestly hope he gets a fair shake with this whole rape thing. If he did it, then throw him away but it really is overwhelmingly suspicious that they are persuing him like they are. I guess you could argue that he's such a high profile 'fugitive' that it would look like theyre lax on their job by not catching him quickly but I do feel they are pubically arresting him for the rape but privately for the obvious.

Unfortunately he's in the pilots seat.....To which he could of ejected a long time ago if he didn't want it to be about him. I think if he would have taken the back seat before when people were calling for it, the course of things might have taken a different turn right now. But I am sure we will all know soon enough who's on first..........

I am still waiting for something that actually hurts TPTB. If and when I see an unmistakable revelation of consequence is the moment I will start to believe in Wikileaks. I mean consider the Pentagon Papers as a benchmark "leak".
I don't think I am alone. Perhaps the banking info will have something BIG. In all likelihood he is holding something back to ensure his personal safety.
"If he doesnt 'deliver' soon then people will be tuning him out and it'll make it harder for someone else who actually has useful information to come forward."
I seriously doubt it. If he is not a plant, this will just force TPTB to double down and possibly speed up their plans.

This could very well be the Start of the EndGame for the corrupt and oppressive politicians.They may have no choice but to come Clean with people. They are being forced to clean up their act. There is good and bad to the cablegate releases,but the good think is it is Awakening All People to the bad that is going on under their noses.
