Maybe this is true, I don't know how much of this is sensationalist. But something to learn from previous experience. Right before the release of Apache video, Julian claimed in his twitter that his men are being followed and being watched by government agents then went silenced for 24 hours only to come back and say that everything is fine. As we now know that nothing happened to them, no one was killed, no one from Wikileaks was kidnapped or arrested or attacked.<p>I think we need to show some healthy amount of skepticism towards Wikileaks as well, it is also in their interest to generate as much noise as possible before each release, they have successfully done so the last time and they will most likely use the same recipe over and over again.

The article keeps using the word "whistleblower", which I think may be inaccurate. A whistleblower is someone who breaks secrecy in order to expose something that's wrong. But leaking 260,000 state department cables just seems like leaking for the sake of leaking.<p>The ethics of this are, at least, peculiar.

For anyone like me that was confused as to what "cables" are, they are telegrams or messages... probably emails.
