Assange & Manning could have easily destroyed the mission to get Osama
I guess Manning didn't have time to pass along that document.

I'm still furious at the birthers for their incessant BS during the time the President was working on this... like he needed their stupidity!

11. My reaction entirely.
And, in fact, Wikileaks has vetted materials -- nor did they release such RECENT materials.

And the media also vetted before printing or posting.

This is a flaming thread, a trolling thread.

16. When what you're claiming as "the truth" is just your opinion
There is a problem.

10. Who cares?
Bin Laden was irrelevant. America, our allies and our enemies will continue to carry out terrorists attacks to further our own power as decent, ethical people suffer helplessly.

27. If not for leaks since UBL was killed, we would know even less about it.
The killing of UBL and slow drip of info shows the need for leaks.
