Let us ponder for a second about the meaning of ‘leaking’. When
something is leaking, it is usually understood that some fluid substance
that is supposed to be flowing in a certain direction, is escaping from
its designed route because of a defect in the structure that was built
to guide it. Usually, if you have a leaking pipe in your water system,
your main problem is that you are unable to control the flow of it, and
water goes into directions where you don’t want it to be going.
However, the definition of ‘Wikileaking’ seems to be following
entirely different laws of nature. Indeed, the information is flowing
away from the secret pipelines it was originally guided into. However,
the strange thing about ‘Wikileaking’ is that Israel, a country widely
known for its secret dealings and cunning intelligence service, is
managing to keep dry feet in spite of the massive political flooding
allegedly caused by Wikileaks’ founding father, Julian Assange.
The lack of control that is so typical of other forms of ‘leaking’,
certainly does not seem to apply to ‘Wikileaking’ – instead it looks
like it is under perfect control, and carefully guided in such a way
that it only serves the interests of one state, namely that of Israel.
