So what do you guys think about that flood of documents that where released by wiki-leaks? Ive heard from some people that he is a hero for revealing some of the awful things the US and other nations where doing, but ive also heard from some that he is a criminal and a terrorist because he released documents containing the names and locations of people who where 'under cover' Whats your opinion?

www.youtube.com/watch?v=5rXPrfnU3G0 I dont think thats fake. The secretary of defence has even admitted that that one is real, and why would the whole government be freaking out if it was just a hoax?

eh Idk about that Austin. The horrors of war often have classified files. They probably have a disgusting amount of truth to them...

Well, Wikileaks apparently published a bunch of documents on the Dutch effort in Afghanistan (and the debate around it that caused the fall of Balkenende's cabinet in early 2010), so I'll give my grain of salt. I doubt that it's made up. I'm unsure if Wikileaks has gone too far or not, with the amount and types of documents that it has posted, but ultimately I think it can have good consequences. After all, the US and the rest of Europe simply love painting themselves as the 'good guys'. Wikileaks can hopefully force them to be a bit more transparent and actually make these claims true.
