The Pentagon is caterwauling that the next round of WikiLeaks’ disclosures of US government documents will be even more damaging than the last round.
It is always touching to see the world’s most powerful military machine portray itself as a “pitiful, helpless giant†(the phrase Nixon used in his speech announcing his illegal invasion of Cambodia).
WikiLeaks is wreaking havoc primarily because the U.S. government has shoveled so much bilge on Afghanistan for the last 9 years.
The easiest way for the US government to reduce WikiLeaks’ impact is to disclose the truth at the time events occur.
But that is like asking a king to surrender his sovereign immunity….
