Regardless of their goals, that Oracle found it suitable to throw Java into kamikaze attack on Google, shows how little they really value it.

I think they value Java quite a lot. The frightening part is that they must value something else quite a lot more. For my money, it has to be that they want a stake in the mobile market - they've decided they can't sit by and let the future of computing pass them by. This is their way of getting in on the action.
