Julian Assage is a complex figure who inspires mixed feelings, though ultimately he has been a source for good because he has made power more accountable and made people aware of the tech security state(s)*. He has paid a high price for it now and is still stuck at the Ecuadorian Embassy in London even after all these years.

Glenn Greenwald, the Guardian journalist who Snowden first contacted, writes excellent stuff for the Intercept and people should check it out.

*Not just America. Britain (a US puppet state in terms foreign policy - and I say that as a Brit) has GCHQ, which has done exactly the same.

@Burnley123:

I do find the CIA as a cop didn't intelligence agency. They did miss use their power as a political instrument for Bush in the invasion of Iraq with this concept of WMD. It seems that they did generate false intelligence.

I personally find Obama with a level of integrity that is above those type of maneuvers. It was obvious that the FBI was a tool for Trump and Giuliani and that they intentionally disrupted the election. Giuliani called it out a week before actually happened as his personal gratifying show off move.

I don't trust the results of the election I do think that it was rigged but I do believe that more rigging was done by Trump and the attorney generals of North Carolina Pennsylvania and Ohio all three of which had Republican attorney general's which were trimming the voter rolls.

Thank you for the information though that you had of the person that writes in correlation with Julian Assange.

It is not a matter of replacing. CIA must change the attitude they have showed after WW2, meddling with other countries, removing governments and looking for conflicts. They should try to leave the cold war behind, as Trump and Putin seem willing to do.

@Cierzo Do you think that Putin has deactivated the KGB though? I think that is the equivalent of the American CIS.

@Pfuzylogic: I don't think neither CIA or KGB should be deactivated. They can be useful to fight terrorism, which is now the biggest global threat. But CIA remains stuck in the 'evil Russians' rethoric.

@Cierzo:
I do agree with Trump that this concept of WMD was constructed for Bush for political purposes to invade Iraq.

Beyond that I don't think that the CIA violated their trust too much. I also don't see them with tunnel vision in their mission.

I don't trust Julianne Assange and his purposes though.
