I 'showed up' because I was never away. Just because someone doesn't post doesn't mean they're not reading stuff.

I'm pretty sick of your bullshit Brianna. Clearly, plenty of others are too. I've not said one word to you which could be in any way construed as nasty or malicious for over a year and probably more like two. I just don't know why you have to hold onto this grudge you have against me. It's not healthy and it serves no purpose.

Really, seriously, how long are you going to keep this up for?

Cast or caste, do you think?

damn, that silent e. Now it's invisible too!:eek:


:p:

The soldier violated UCMJ & US Title 18 when he transferred classified documents from SIPR to NIPR. Wikileaks employees/board members can be charged as accessories after the fact or for the actual distribution of classified documents (many of these were SECRET//NOFORN). Jurisdiction was established when the soldier transfered the data from TOC or SCIF and it is regardless where the physical location of recepients was.

In other words, they are in very deep shit.

As should have everyone involved in leaking the Pentagon Papers.

How screwed up is security when a Private in Afghanistan has access to all Pentagon and State Department cables. If he could do it, then they were not secret. And so the question is how many other countries were reading this stuff before WikiLeaks got it.

Most of the stuff I have been reading is basically common knowledge. Material only confirms what most already knew. The real Secret stuff was withheld. In reality, "Secret" means virtually anyone has access. Truely secret material starts at higher security ratings. Those are being withheld by WikiLeaks.

Once we eliminate hype, well, the world is now viewing international politics in a new light. The world now has a better idea which countries have been lying and which ones were actually being honest. For many nations, this means increased credibility.

If prosecuting anyone, start with the fools who simply gave everyone access to everyone - including a US Army Private in Afghanistan.

Reported was that China probably has every plan for every American nuclear warhead. When the accusation was made, it sounded preposterous. If a Private in Afghanistan has access to all this, well then yes, China probably does have all those weapons plans.

Who is trying to divert attention by hyping blame upon Wikileaks?

Its Bush's fault. No, seriously. It was during his administration that the sharing of information was decided and implemented.

This thread could have been a clone titled:

Yet more keen leaks one might want to share

Oh well, maybe for the next big security breach.

Everytime I see this thread title, I have to pee.

You got a wicked leak?

Yeah, for like...a weeky, almost a monthy.

Well, 'tis the season to wear a peecoat.

The soldier has access to the data via SIPR, just like any other analyst. SIPR only in a secured internet for documents/media with a SECRET or less classification. This soldier has a TS/SCI clearance requiring an in depth background check that most of the public can never pass. After getting the clearance, he is then "read-on" for access. None of this is taken lightly.

Large amounts of classified materials are posted on SIPR in order to facilitate analysis. It is the junior enlisted analyst who is tasked with datamining & preliminary link analysis or trend identification.

I go wiky leaky. 'K boss.
