Q&A: Julian Assange Denies Being Soros Agent

AFAQS

Not that it is particularly significant but this is basically exactly what I said from day one. The reason the leaks are propagandistic is because it's full of internal propaganda among state propagandists.

For gods sake, they ran around saying Iraq had WMDs and the Wikileaks proved Bush was right (despite all the claims being old discredited propaganda and the Bush admin admitting there was no WMD). - Chris
There has been speculation that you have the support of George Soros and Israeli intelligence service Mossad. Where do you think this is coming from?

Assange: (It is common) in the US to allege George Soros is behind everything. To be fair, the only vaguely conspiratorial things that George Soros has been behind is some of the 'Colour Revolutions' in Eastern Europe about five or six years ago that I know about.

As for Mossad, in the release of "Cablegate" material, there is no one spared. If you look closely, what has happened is that the New York Times as a media organisation has to be quite careful not to criticise Israel too much. So, if you look at the coverage in English that is coming out you will see little that is critical of Israeli behaviour and a lot critical of Iran, for example. That is not a true reflection of the "Cablegate" material. There is information in there that is critical of most countries - certainly including Israel.

There is a bias towards material that is critical of Iran because the information comes from US embassies and US diplomats reporting back to Washington. So, it does follow Washington's agenda in terms of what US diplomats and political officers are looking to report and what they do report back to Washington.
