WikiLeaks chief: Expect UFO talk in future files
Share |

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange said on Friday that there were some references to UFOs in “yet-to-be-published” confidential files obtained from the U.S. government.

In an online chat hosted by the U.K.’s Guardian newspaper, he also said that no one has been harmed by his organization’s release of troves of secret documents.

“WikiLeaks has a four-year publishing history. During that time there has been no credible allegation, even by organizations like the Pentagon, that even a single person has come to harm as a result of our activities,” Assange said in response to a reader’s question. “This is despite much-attempted manipulation and spin trying to lead people to a counter-factual conclusion. We do not expect any change in this regard.”

Assange said he and colleagues were aware of death threats following the publication of diplomatic cables on their website.

“The threats against our lives are a matter of public record, however, we are taking the appropriate precautions to the degree that we are able when dealing with a superpower,” Assange was quoted as saying.

Answering questions online, Assange also said that anyone making threats against his life should be charged with incitement to murder.

Asked if he has ever been forwarded documents dealing with UFOs or extraterrestrials, Assange responded, “Many weirdos e-mail us about UFOs or how they discovered that they were the anti-Christ whilst talking with their ex-wife at a garden party over a pot plant. However, as yet they have not satisfied two of our publishing rules: 1) that the documents not be self-authored; 2) that they be original.

“However, it is worth noting that in yet-to-be-published parts of the Cablegate archive, there are indeed references to UFOs.”

Britain’s Guardian is one of a number of newspapers around the world with early access to diplomatic cables seen by WikiLeaks.

The whereabouts of Assange, a 39-year-old Australian, are unknown, but some reports have said he is believed to be in southern England.

  1. We shouldn'thavetowaitanylonger says:

    We are still waiting?? Why??

  2. So where are the documents?

  3. You would think that we collectively would have access to this info by now instead of constantly talking about it. Hmmm makes me wonder if this isn’t INFINITELY more important and frightening to certain governments than the BS of political rhetoric.

    GET ON WITH IT. I don’t actually care who is sleeping with whom on the political level or the idle gossip of the various powers that be.

    THIS I WANT TO KNOW because it would signal a fundamental shift in mankinds paradigm finally. We might just stop being so damned myopic and grow the hell up.

    So out with it already.
