Either they know whats in the cables already, or they are really stupid and it's a ego thing.
Calculated risk maybe?

Just as Douglas Adams says "the president is there to draw attention away from those who are really in power". I think Assange's role is to keep their attention while his associates work under-wraps.
That's what I hope, at least. I seem to be doing that a lot recently..

listen, i don't know what planet you people live on, but on planet earth, when you even look at some guy on the street the wrong way you can end up in a great deal of trouble. that this guy has managed to get away with what he has already, suggests it's all part of the plan and if you think otherwise, you might want to rethink your position.

nonsense. if he was doing that, they'd have taken him out back when it was first starting to gain traction, like right after the first disclosure. all this is just a big farce.
