WikiLeaks: Julian Assange Are You Paying Attention? Yes, I’m Talking to You!

From Abu Dhabi’s  The National:

“Last weekend, an Afghan friend who lives in Kabul was in Dubai for a short break to get away from the Taliban death threats which he has been receiving regularly ever since the leaked war logs revealed some of the projects he was working on with the US military. I won’t elaborate on what he does. He is an educated man who believes in a modern and moderate state. He has a wife, two small children and elderly parents to support.

He is convinced that the publication of thousands of documents exposed him because he has never had such security problems before. During the first couple of phone calls, the caller told him to quit his job. ‘Why do you work with the foreign infidels? Join the jihad with us.’ The second phone call was more threatening. ‘We know where you work and what your car looks like,’ the man said, then gave a detailed description of his vehicle. My friend moved his office and varies his route and schedule when he goes to work. Working for the US military is not his first choice but job opportunities are so few in Afghanistan you earn your money where you can.”
