I agree in principal but they are definetly using Assange as a vehicle to manipulate public opinion to agree to some punative measures,people better watch whats being pedalled it may eventually affect all of our free right to surf and Assange is doing a great job of it.what he hopes to gain in the long run,really think about it?

Actually, I know for a fact they don't. While the have the ability to operate locally they share lines and trunks with civilian infrastructure. If they unplug the net the military is also left in the dark. They will still have some forms of communication, but they will be hurt logistically.
While they may have the technology to allow them to operate unhampered, that doesn't mean some 4 Star is going to ok the new budget that reshapes the current infrastructure by rolling out new protocols and duplicate civilian efforts.
On top of that, shutting it down would just lead to an uprising we haven't seen since the French Revolution. It would kill the economy and it would bring the nations of the world down upon our heads.
I really think that people are seeing boogeymen that don't exist...

yeah this does create fear and pessimism but thats the reason,terror is old news now ,so whammy Assange.
I hate to be the Assanginator but I really don`t see what he intends to gain,certainly not world domination not unless we`ve all to believe in terminator and assange is Mr connor.Reality is hard to except but agendas are`nt.

so civil unrest is the answer ,there was a time when the web did`nt exsist and yes so much depends on it ,well I wonder will humanity survive without it as everyone believes.I don`t agree what governments get up too but their upto something.Definetly a alternative reason to disconnect the net as a test run for a more clandestine operation probably a military operation that may involve nukes.Its not paranoia but global events all countries need to be seen to have agreed ,were talking history book stuff here.enough said.

It doesnt really matter whether hes a nwo puppet or a true human with good intentions, maybe he is. but i'm seeing a lot of events occur in the past couple of weeks, interesting events at that. the way i look at it the world is changing quicker than ever. it could just be me, but it feels just like 2 days ago when the wikileaks cables were released. point being is that big events are happening through out the world and i think wikileaks is being used as a cover story.
if assange is part of the new plan then my theory would be that the elites want a way to create political chaos throughout the world, those leaks are best for such agenda, they're aim is to destroy diplomatic relations between nations, and its working thats all i can say. if you want chaos in the streets then start censoring the internet. i'm pretty sure no one is going to like that.
I'm keeping an eye on this topic, but north korea is a priority at this moment. with those guys its really on the brink of war. NK - - disputed waters - - SK. this thing happened because of the exercises in the disputed waters, now SK wants to try again this week. they're really asking for it war...

I have to admit...what is happening is pretty crazy. I'm just wondering what the "BIG ONE" will be.
What will be the grand finale of info that comes out???
I hope it's something that will change the world for the better....but in this day and age it's hard to be optimistic for that.
