Assange's stance is that more open and just societies are built on fewer
secrets held by those who govern those societies. He believes that by
helping people leak information, those who govern are weakened into a
position of HAVING to be more open and transparent.
These secretive organisations CAN remain secretive, but they start to lose
trust their internal communications, and each other, and this also
seriously weakening.
He doesn't need to leak very much to sow seeds of doubt, in the same way
that a terrorist organisation doesn't need to plant very many real bombs:
the threat is what actually does the job.
