Reminding everyone how much they dislike or hate each other well this is going to bring about world peace and harmony right?

Yea folks are stupid on this.

Imagine if i recorded every conversation you had with your friends family coworkers, your online interactions for years on end, then released them all wholesale. After all, if you aren't guilty, you have nothing to hide, and transparency is key!! It would poison many of your relationships thats for sure, and knowing that it might happen again would just add further sh*t into the system.

Pre 9/11 agencies weren't working together, so they failed to put together the plot. Imagine that will be the future with information being even more restricted.

Nothing good has come from this, assange has gotten his chuckles and cause a mess. some others have fapped a bit as well and so what. no substance.

The leaker should be executed. seriously

More interesting than these leaks themselves (which frankly, werent going to produce huge revelations, as these 'secret' documents where accessible by several million people), is how the media is picking the documents to publish.

Like that member of the Saudi royal family urging the US to bomb Iran. Big news, right? Completely validates the US and Israeli stands.

Except the Saudi royal family consists of 7.000 people (some estimates even put it at 25000 according to wiki). And its full of inbred fruitcakes. Remember this Prince:

Small wonder some of those thousands rich Sunni wannabe dictators would like to see a Shia oil rival taken out. Why that is front page news, I dont know. Why the cables that show Saudi foreign ministry instead urged the US for restraint vis a vis Iran is not at least as news worthy, well you tell me.

Alwahbi strongly advised against taking military action to neutralize Iran's program. Rather, establishing a US-Iranian dialogue was the best course of action, asserting that the USG opening an Interest Section or re-opening our Embassy in Tehran would be positive step

You'd be surprised how much is coming from the wahab clerics. This battle goes a hell of a lot further back than Al Saud. You got two things working against Iranians. Shi'a Islam which they don't consider Islam. And not Arab.

Well that member just happened to be the king. From OP:
King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia has repeatedly asked the U.S. to "cut off the head of the snake"

Because they didn't launch a cyber offensive against the US? They hacked into Google servers that were located in China.


Really? This article would seem to disagree:

http://www.networkworld.com/community/blog/new-details-google-hack-wikileaks

In all, 34 companies were identified as having their computer systems hacked.

An additional review of diplomatic cables revealed that Chinese hackers have broken into American government computers and those of Western allies, the Dalai Lama and American businesses since 2002, according to the Times.

Good thing someone has common sense, and it's isn't most of the posters here:

Robert Gates, current SecDef:

"Is this embarrassing? Yes. Is it awkward? Yes. Consequences for U.S. foreign policy? I think fairly modest," Gates told reporters at the Pentagon. He called dire predictions about the effect of the release on America's foreign policy as "significantly overwrought."

Glad to see so many people here think they know more then the Secdef.
