If I was an Iraqi and I wanted to help the US take out Al Qaeda, I probably wouldn't give any information to US Forces because that would be a death sentence for my family thanks to wikileaks.


If I was a volunteer helping to rebuild Afghanistan after the Americans cluster-bombed it into the stone age, I don't think I would want US Special Forces to be given information about where I am in case some cack-handed jarhead grenades me to death, which would be a death sentence for me thanks to America.

If I was any other sovereign nation in the world except China or Russia I don't think I would want the Americans anywhere near me in case they decided to demolish my infrastructure and replace my government with a corrupt patsy of their choosing. I would know I can't trust them thanks to wikileaks.


You didn't seriously need wikileaks for that, did you?


Me personally? No. But some people show a ridiculous degree of blind faith.
