I could understand releasing war documents about Iraq and Afghanistan. But diplomatic cables? Now they're just scraping the bottom of the barrel. If this were China, whoever leaked this information, would be quickly executed. George Washington executed spies and deserters. This is sedition. It's espionage. I don't know if whoever did this is a traitor, but they're pretty ing close to it.

LONDON � U.S. allies around the world have been briefed by American diplomats about an expected release of classified U.S. files by the WikiLeaks website that is likely to cause international embarrassment and could damage some nations' relations with the United States.
The release of hundreds of thousands of State Department cables is expected this weekend, although WikiLeaks has not been specific about the timing. The cables are thought to include private, candid assessments of foreign leaders and governments and could erode trust in the U.S. as a diplomatic partner. |

Julian Assange is an Australian citizen. Sorry, but I'm not for Americans executing those from another sovereign country. |

I wasn't talking about him. I was talking about the person who gave Julian the classified materials. |

Oh yeah? And you're from Australia right? Well if Heath Ledger were alive today, he'd take exception to that! Where would your precious Hugh Jackmans, Nicole Kidmans, Cate Blanchetts, Paul Hogans, and Eric Banas of the world be without the glory of the USA!? That's right- nowhere, and thus Australia would be nowhere! |
