WIKILEAKS Topic

I know that the standard response from the US government and various media sources claims that the WIKILEAKS information puts military personel at a higher risk. I am not sure what about the documents puts our troops at risk though. How come nobody asks why the disclosure of this information would be dangerous to military personel.

Thanks for any clarification given!

The documents can give foreign agents a clear pattern of the process that we go through in inteligence matters, as well as specific data that could put soldiers at risk.

Just busy with some personal issues. Sorry that I have not been spending the amount of time in the forums that I need.

The problem should fade as of this week.

I am going to make ignoring me more complicated.

Your question was a tantrum. Snarky.

My response was oratory gold!

This sounds like grasping at straws at best. Have you read any of them since they are historically primary sources?

I guess my concern is the big brother over-reaching that our government is doing at home and abroad. I feel like we don't respect the sovereignty of our allies.

Nobody asks that question because the answer may be that it really doesn't put our military in danger, therefore, the leaks aren't as controversial and cease to become yet another divisive topic pushed upon us by corporate media.  Better to just say that they are so that the Hannitys and Olbermanns have something to yell to their sheep.  Much better for ratings.

Don't worry, you won't hear too much more about Wikileaks now that the "War on Christmas" is heating up.
