I’m talking about an atrocity that has actually occurred; you are freaking out about one you just dreamed up in your head as you were typing your post.

That’s not rational.

“Especially the one about the sick evil mercenaries at DynCorp providing children to Afghan rapists. IF that story ever gets front page headlines, expect to see some heads to finally roll for that one.”

Thats one scenario.
How bout this one ?

All the family members of the Saudi leaders partying, including their kids are all decapitated.
Maybe they’ll intercept food going to Somalia and a bunch of kids will starve.
You’re talking about the past.
I’m talking about far worse consequences that you cannot seem to fathom

You’ve some justifiable crap for everything.
Bad behavior warrants more bad behavior, go for it.
Your inability to see the domino effect of what this man is doing is astoundingly ignorant

micky: “So Ginnie, whats to say Al Queda wont try the same thing ? The Brits refuse to deal, and boom ! We have a bunch of dead Brits.”

Al Quaida is constantly already kidnapping and trying to kill a bunch of people. You make it sound as if they’ve been sitting on the sidelines all these years and suddenly this one cable is going to galvanize them to action.

micky: “The Saudis will have every reason to not trust us with info anymore as wikileaks also exposed the fact that the Saudis want us to take out Irans nuke facilities, giving the Iranians a heads up.”

Why should we trust they’ve been giving us good info?! There are people in their government who fund terrorism! And by the way, we are now in more danger after arming them. Before, they depended on our military might. Now or very soon they can thumb their nose at us if they want.

micky: “Is it for Assange or the NYTs to decide what is presentable out of all these leaks ?”

Subjective question. You obviously believe with all your heart it is neither’s place. So far, I’m approving of what Wikileaks is doing, and with other media outlets for covering the stories.

Especially the one about the sick evil mercenaries at DynCorp providing children to Afghan rapists. IF that story ever gets front page headlines, expect to see some heads to finally roll for that one.

It works both ways.
Some info, good or bad does not belong in certain hands.
How bout the radical fundamentalists that are finding out that Saudi leaders were boozing it up with hookers ?
The Saudis will have every reason to not trust us with info anymore as wikileaks also exposed the fact that the Saudis want us to take out Irans nuke facilities, giving the Iranians a heads up.
I sure hope this is getting thru to you just how dangerous these kind of dumps can be in the name of transparency.
Is it for Assange or the NYTs to decide what is presentable out of all these leaks ?
How do they know what the intent is behind half of whats being revealed. For all we know wikileaks is unknowingly giving us half the story.
This is stupid and dangerous.
I love whistle blowers, but this a$$hole is being totally reckless
