Pentagon: return our "stolen" docs, or else
Edited on Sat Aug-07-10 10:17 AM by kpete
"If doing the right thing is not good enough for them," the Pentagon spokesman said, alternatives will be explored "to make them do the right thing."

WikiLeaks tweeted:

Obnoxious Pentagon spokesperson issues formal threat against WikiLeaks: Destroy everything, or else http://cs.pn/aOxf0Y

Then followed that with a fundraising request:

Now is a good time to send WikiLeaks all your money! http://bit.ly/cpxJWC

Reiterating the Pentagon briefing and money call a couple of hours later:

Pentagon: return our "stolen" docs, or else http://bit.ly/cvcWRu Support us now: http://bit.ly/cpxJWC

And then said that the site, which posts confidential documents, was weighing Morrell's statement:

We are examining the Pentagon's "request" and will issue a statement in due course.

WikiLeaks sparked speculation by posting a 1.4GB encrypted file called "Insurance" on its site -- a file about 20 times larger than the original document dump. The title suggests a challenge to the U.S. government's pressure on the secretive site.

1. Yeah boy...
....now that's telling them.

Oh, and BTW, too bad the pentagon was asleep on 9/11, eh?

Someone stole their security and made them look like total idiots that day.
They couldn't even protect their own damned building? WTF?

2. Re that attack on the Pentagon on 9-11
Got parts? I never found anything about officials finding parts of a plane there. Seems odd to me. Planes have lots of parts.

3. A wheel assembly was found
Wasn't too mangled, tho. Some aluminum skin pieces, also.

What I found interesting was the hole in the wall about 5 walls deep into the pentagon. Just a hole, no evidence of the plane that is said to have made the hole. Just a hole.

Of course, the Official Conspiracy Theory, or OCT, claims that the plane simply disintegrated when it hit the first wall.

8. In a city that probably has more video surveillance cameras than any other in the US
we have not seen a picture of a plane heading into that building. But I recall a local gas station or convenience store very near had video that was said to show what looked like a small missile streak by very low. The video was disappeared and we did not hear any more about it in MSM

4. oooh...oooh...oooh
:scared: :scared: :scared:

Face it, pentagon. That files is probably now distributed on a zillion servers all over creation. People everywhere hoping to get a key or two.

It does leave one to wonder how many donations wikileaks raked in as a result of the threat. :rofl:

6. A digital copy isn't 'stolen' whether it's an MP3 or top secret documents.
It's a copy - not the original. There's nothing to return.
