no doubt the reason that the military freaks on wikileaks is because they are concerned with the safety of their informants and soldiers, obscure or speculative though any such such endangerment might be. (i want you to show me some of the many deaths that y'all predicted with the utmost confidence from the afghan leaks. obviously assange is a murderer. ok who did he kill?) it has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that they do not want you or the iraqis etc to know what the u.s. military actually has done. indeed, if people knew things like that, they might cease to support the war effort. that is, it would be bad for morale. patriotism, as robert gates has so often asserted, or perhaps merely implied, can only be maintained under conditions of utter delusion. and are we not patriots?
