Arab traitors!? Seriously? How are they traitors if they're just trying to enlist the aid of a more powerful nation to bring stability to their region? Al-Qaeda can really be a bunch of thugs sometimes, moreso than the US. Especially since the US doesn't operate like a fucking street gang.

And at least some of these leaks do endanger us. Like the one that says "Hey, here are all the critical targets that will hurt the US! If you destroy these, bunches of people will be put in danger!"


They are traitors by siding with the invaders/occupiers.

Exactly right.

Siding with American interests over your own country's interests does make you a traitor of sorts. These people are obviously taking bribes of some sort in order to switch sides to favor American imperial interests over the sovereignty of your people.

hehe! The lies that Assange told in order to trivialize the fact that he was charged with rape sure are funny! Oh man, I would do whatever I could to repeat those lies as often as possible, because taking rape charges seriously is for dummies!

The occupying forces are recognized as the legitimate power in the region, traitors are those who oppose or defy our backed regime.

Legitimate power is completely subjective. If another country invaded and occupied America, we would fight.

Which makes calling them "traitors" entirely subjective and rather worthless to this discussion :( .

If China invaded the United States, the people who sided with China would be called out as traitors. It's pretty simple.

Which is totally legitimate when you're talking about people who support the new democratic regime and were opposed to the old dictatorship.

If we lived in a dictatorship and someone overthrew it, what is there to betray when the dictator is dead?
