Plucking from Assange's writing, this analyst notes that the goal is not the leaks themselves, but the disruption of the permanent, invisible government that persists despite electoral results, and is deeply dependent on secrecy. Citing Theodore Roosevelt:
Behind the ostensible government sits enthroned an invisible government owing no allegiance and acknowledging no responsibility to the people....To destroy this invisible government, to befoul this unholy alliance between corrupt business and corrupt politics is the first task of statesmanship.
Let's expose the permanent, invisible government - the unholy alliance between corrupt business, corrupt billionaire philanthropy, corrupt corporate media and corrupt politics - that has been bringing us all the top-down, corporate-friendly, pro-privatization education reforms next.
A WikiLeak document dump on BloomKleinMurdochFentyRheeGatesBroadWaltonBushObamaDuncan - that would be fantastic.
