It's a joke.

Doe's anyone actually think that these documents were really secret and wikileaks was the first to uncover this *****?

Every government we deal with has spies all over our system and knows what was in these "leaks". The whole thing is more a joke that is set up to cause a fake outrage then anything. These documents would have been declassified in a couple of years and brushed aside as nonsense, because really most of it is nonsense. If anything the false outrage is distracting us from the actual infiltration of our government by the McCarthyists. Oh wait that was the point....

Exposing tax sponsored killing people half way across the world is a 'joke' to you?

1. Because there's no use of it. People should understand that every country acts in its own interests and the US isn't an exception. So if you think that the wikileaks exposes dirty pants of America then just try to relax and have fun
2. Well, the pilots went to war. They risks to be killed there, so they have a right to sound like they want to. By the way, those photographers knew where they go too. Don't play with Apache

Doesn't work like this here. Not sure where you are from, but the US as a nation is better than this. I'm supposed to 'relax and have fun' watching folks I don't even know shot from a heli I forcefully paid for?

So, while revealing nothing really "surprising" the leaks are good just because they got our elected bums running around like chickens on fire.

Anyone who pays attention to our actions and looks at our imperialistic occupations could have told you what was happening.

Better yet anyone who has been following the economic infiltration of the third world by China can foresee what will happen in the next decade.

The "leaks" themselves aren't anything newsworthy. They are more TMZ worthy.

Would you rather have another country be "imperialistic"?

Was that in response to me Jon?

If so, I am fully aware that any country that want's to be on top is going to imperialistic. China has silently been doing so for the last decade with IMF loans to the third world, funding public works in central and south america, and funding campaigns in upcoming nations.

It's a fools game in the end. As every empire rises and spreads it's money it ultimately fails because it spread its money. We are at a point in our history where these leaks aren't anything new or surprising, especially the state department leaks which are more gossip then news.

I have to question how much more information that hasn't been leaked yet is known by every other government who views us as the global leader. I would imagine this is probably just a small chunk of what has been electronically intercepted in the last few years.
