>>>>Many people and publications have said publication of the war documents could put informants at risk. Do we know that anything happened to any of them? That would be news, not speculation. (I know Fox News Bill does not distinguish between the two).

>>I agree completely. I'm sure every soldier, agent, state department employee, and intelligence sources have warm and fuzzy feelings about protecting our country now. It's known that our enemies will target individuals and their families once they know their identities.

>>A spokesman for the Taliban told Britain’s Channel 4 News on Thursday that the insurgent group is scouring classified American military documents posted online by the group WikiLeaks for information to help them find and “punish” Afghan informers.

>Perhaps the real problem here is how those documents ended up in the hands of wikileaks to begin with.
>If informants names were published then yes I think wikileaks make an serious mistake...but the true culprit here is the person(s) that stole the info to begin with.

The other thing to keep in mind is all the crimes the USA committed that were in this wikileaks info - where is the outcry about all that? Maybe if the USA had handled things properly to begin with there wouldn't of been a leak to start with.
