Michel Chossudovsky over at Global Research has put up an interesting NPR transcript with some rather revealing statements about Wikileaks that were made by the New York Times chief Washington correspondent, David Sanger. Sanger is one of the New York Times reporters who have been reading and writing about the different state department memos “leaked” by Wikileaks. He was also involved in meetings with the Obama administration and others which selected and redacted the cables that would be published.
Go here to listen to the audio file of the Dec. 8th 2010 “Fresh Air” interview. Go here to read the entire transcript at Global Research.
It’s important at first to understand briefly who David Sanger is. Sanger is a Washington insider with a great deal of access to the White House under both the Bush and Obama regimes. He even speaks in his book about being in the White House Situation Room. He wrote a book called “The Inheritance: The World Obama Confronts and the Challenges to American Power” in which basically he supports the need to attack Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and even Iran. Pretty much the entire Global War on Terror is just fine with David Sanger and he spends most of his life doing his best to drum-up support for it on the left.
