Haakong there's no way the released emails were fabricated. They were released immediately. It would take a team of 50 two months to analyze 10,000 emails and plausibly inject false messages into the record.

LCP You are arguing against yourself. Unless it is your contention that the govenrments and corporations that are trying so hard to vilify wikileaks never lie the leaking of "sensitive" information becomes an essential service. It is not wiki's job to pick and choose what information to post, merely to provide a venue for whistle blowers. They do not have either the resources nor the competancy to edit what they publish. I agree that the diplomatic messages that initially earned wikileaks ire should never have been released, but wikileaks didn't do anything wrong. These documents were released by a traitor in the US military. If wikileaks wasn't there they could have been released on filestube, scribd, fileknow, or any of a hundred other file sharing sites. Blaming wikileaks for the release of "sensitive" documents is just stupid. It's like blaming a rooster for the sun coming up.
Are you saying that somehow wikilieaks hasn't made the problem of leaked documents worse? call me stubborn but i refuse to believe everything that is posted on the internet.
That's exactly what I'm saying. Blaming wikileaks for people leaking documents is idiotic. It's like blaming the faucet for flooding your kitchen.
If wikileaks didn't exist, things wouldn't be centralized, thus making information scattered and probably could be passed off as false. Wikileaks has gotten more publicity towards leaks than any site before.
