Wiki is not journalism.... it's just a threat to national security for any nation. I would call it a terrorist group since they thrive in assisting terrorism in any way possible.

Agreed.

What PFC Manning did can be summed up in one word: Treason

Assange?  Espionage

It doesn't matter whose side they are batting for.

I like a good London Broil.  I don't necessarily need to know the details of how the cattle is slaughtered before the meat makes it to my grill as long as it is safe for me to consume.

Folks like these are not making any friends.

Both should be dealt with accordingly.

"I would come in with music on a CD-RW labeled with something like ‘Lady Gaga,’ erase the music then write a compressed split file,” he wrote. "No one suspected a thing and, odds are, they never will.”

" listened and lip-synced to Lady Gaga’s ‘Telephone’ while exfiltrating possibly the largest data spillage in American history,” he added later. ”Weak servers, weak logging, weak physical security, weak counter-intelligence, inattentive signal analysis … a perfect storm.”

Well, he was right. It was absolutely stupid for the DoD IT to be that lax about physical security. Computers that have access to such critical data should not have farking CD-ROM burners on them!

Comon, all they're doing is showing you the info the terrorists most likely already had last year. Do you really think wikileaks got exclusive access to this info?
Do you think it would make this much noise if it was common knowledge?

Wikileaks is a terrorist organization and there are people calling for them to be considered that by the US government.

Wikileaks is an international non-profit organisation owned by The Sunshine Press and administrated by hundreds of journalist from all over the world. Journalists who work at news media corporations all over the world, including America. The news media is the "fourth estate" of the modern democratic world and essential to keep governments transparent and honest.

If Wikileaks didn't exist the "whistle blower" would just have given the documents to another international news organisation like Reuters or AP. Kill the source, not the messenger.

Your dead wrong on just kill the source. Anyone assisting terrorism is nothing more than a terrorist themselves.
