I find most of it amusing. It's just releasing information that everyone already knows to be the case.

Some of it is slightly irresponsible I guess.

I didn't know that Saudi and Yemen had advised America to attack Iran, also didn't know that America considered a snake anti-venom factory in Oz to be of importance to national security.

Could some of the info they are releasing not be destabilising?

Sh*t stirring between armed nations might be a tad irresponsible and I didn't see the need to release these locations. I thought originally they were on a mission to release information that should be known but now they just seem to be releasing everything. Ho-hum.

I don't think its destabilising as much as embarassing on the most part, as we're being exposed to just how paranoid the only remaining superpower is despite it being more than 20 years since the end of the cold war.

Proves America is a bit two faced. not everybodys friend and some what lacking in their own security if it is so easy to get that sort of information.

I don't have a strong opinion on it. I've never looked at the Wikileaks website. My views are solely those of the BBC news so I won't comment too much. I'm just interested to see what everyone else's views are.

Paypal has apparently withdrawn it's service for Wikileak donations saying they have breached the acceptable use policy, Amazon have refused to sell them any hosting services issues saying Wikileaks breaches their policy, and their DNS provider cut them off due to the number of DoS attacks.

Somebody has a serious issue with them.
