What it reveals is indeed shocking.
But I have a question for Wikileaks, who are behaving increasingly like MSM gatekeepers, who would have us believe that they are the best arbiters of what we should and should not be allowed to see.
Have a look at what this site is attempting on this subject
It all has a familiar ring to it eh? - shades of Glen Greenwald et al striving to 'be responsible' in what they allow us to see - yeah yeah, pull the other one, it's got bells on.
The plain fact is that the Western SIS's are all over these big whistle-blower initiatives like a rash. We should be VERY careful to consider just why THIS is being released and not THAT or THE OTHER - just who is making those decisions? That is what I would like to ask Wikileaks and Snowden's 'minders' and I'm pretty sure of the tenor and content of the replies I would get too - but then I'm just a died-in-the-wool old cynic by now.
