Get Real: WikiLeaks is NOT an Inside Job

"On the web are blog posts and columns that attempt to link Julian Assange and his WikiLeaks organization to Israel, or to the Rothschilds, or to the CIA. WikiLeaks, these pieces insist, is a psy-op designed to somehow help bring about the New World Order, to bolster the power elite at the expense of the rest of us, to undermine (or enhance, depending on who you read) American power or Israeli influence."

The rest of this article defends WikiLeaks against the absurd notion that it's an "inside job" even though the author believes 9-11 was an inside job... so all the smears against WikiLeaks are too far out even for a Truther.

Let's say that Sauron, the big cheese bad guy of Lord of the Rings, is the corporate hegemony. The 1%. Most people in Middle Earth agree that this is a problem, but there are a few differ...
