Yes this is true, but a little bit of common sense on wikileaks behalf could have been exercised, you know? On Sat, Oct 23, 2010 at 1:59 PM, John Bond <john.r.bond () gmail com> wrote:

I don't know if Wikileaks have done a good thing or not, but rather than release everything, they should have had someone analyse the documents,andpick out the bits which they felt the public needed to know (anything considered a scandal etc) .. We don't care about soldiers movements or tactics, but an insurgent might... I see little reason why they'd need to release all the documents, other than out of lazyness/insufficient stafftoreview all the info..I was trying hard to not respond to this thread. I am not condoning or condemning wikileaks however the above statement sort of misses the point of wikileaks. the mass media does what you have suggested and look how well that works. wikileaks rightly or wrongly (and possibly unsuccessfully) tries to overcome these issues by presenting the raw information so people can make there own mind up.
