Re: Wikileaks releases 390K plus classified documents on Iraq war
How are they served by the first one? Additionally, even if they are served by that one, that doesn't necessarily mean diddly.
The simple fact is that the larger the secret or secretive organization, the weaker it is with regards to keeping secrets. The US intelligence business is only recently a very, very large secretive organization. It makes no sense that "they" would intentionally leak this stuff, especially with regards to torture and civilian deaths, for "their" benefit; but it is very believable that one of the thousands with access would leak it intentionally for their own purposes.
I am beginning to dislike conspiracy theorists because of their utter simplicity. Sometimes a spade is just a spade, but some people are just outright convinced that only this mysterious "they" can ever do anything of note, and are in complete control of seemingly every situation. It's the same with JFK, the Moon Landing, the OKC bombing, the 9/11 attacks, and now this leak. C'est la vie...
