Google is open sourcing the same software that helped to produce popular sites like Google Maps and Gmail. The company has released the Google Web Toolkit under the Apache 2.0 open source license. Independent developers can now use the toolkit to make and debug their own Java applications.

No he didn't. The Web Toolkit converts Java code into Javascript code. The intro paragraph may have slipped at "make and debug their own Java applications" but for the rest of the article it clearly explains that the toolkit is meant to convert Java applications into javascript-driven web apps. You're being a little over dramatic.
