maybe though i said it could cause some harm before the spin doctors hit the news.
and i agree about the wool pulling. but if something should be published just because it's a leak then sorry but
i think it's wrong. to simply say oh it's a year old so it won't or cant cause harm seems to me a bit blase.
i personally believe some afghan informers and their families at the very least will end up dead because of it.
for wiki to say"we removed the names" is not in my mind enough to stop someone from realizing who the informant was. and think of this. the wiki crustacean himself said we have removed names to protect people. if having something leaked wasn't or isn't dangerous according to you why do you think they removed the names and sometimes dates etc?
what they leaked isn't just a misuse of funds or whose banging who. it affects lives.
