Re:  Julian Assange and the Wikileaks Affair

Think of global diplomacy as the proverbial year-end office party  
where the liquour flows and random couples, all liquored up, steal  
away to broom closets, lavatories and storage rooms for a tryst.
 
Then, a disgruntled company employee triggers the building's  
sprinkler system and everyone is soaked and feels royally steamed by  
the party being spoiled -- some so much so that they're actually  
unmindful of the disheveled and pathetic way they look, sopping wet  
and in various stages of undress.

That's how I view the Wikileaks affair, and its resultant scandal and  
uproar.
