  • No, he didn’t. This is 100% factually wrong. He gave them to to the Guardian and to the New York Times, and to Glenn Greenwald., and he gave it to them encrypted and deleted them himself. Part of his requirements was that they vet everything they released before they released it to make sure that no one was hurt as an effect.

    This was part of why the Guardian ended up having it’s higher level employees replaced after MI6 trashed the place (literally).

    You might be thinking of Julian Assange, but even there there was double checking and not one single individual has proven to be hurt by those leaks.

    That’s the enemies Im talking about eg DPRK, Russia, or Iran.

    Let me guess, you’re a liberal of the “Liberals hate every war except the current one” bent, aren’t you? To the point that you’re literally making shit up to slander an actual fucking hero that revealed quite a lot to the public that wasn’t at that point known.

    Get the fuck out of here with your stupid ignorant bullshit that lets you feel smugly superior.

    EDIT: We never got the full leaks because the news organizations he gave them to ended up deleting them from under governmental pressure, and he no longer had copies of them.

    Now, before you smugly utter the next banal lie liberals always do to slander him: He didn’t want to go to Russia. He intended to go to Ecuador, but the Obama Administration broke a bunch of international laws, including forcing aircraft with diplomatic immunity to land in other countries airspace to try and capture him. Turned out, of course, that he wasn’t on board. He went to Russia out of desperation.
