Jamesk of Perth, You are kidding me right! Those documents could contain vital information about routine and other activeties that put soldiers lives at risk mre often then is already erquired. Freedom of press can get stuffed! I was in the middle east 3 years ago this is the kind of info that gets good people killed.

Seppos worried about their war crimes being exposed Why war in Afghanistan? Just Google "Unocal Pipeline" All aboout OIL

An easier way to avoid bad press is to avoid doing the wrong thing in the first place. All the US has to do is stop forcing their views on other sovereign nations and stop claiming to be the moral guardians of the free world. There is nothing free about a country that is so rich yet fails to provide basic care for the poor people in their community. When America can look after their own people, perhaps the rest of the world might take some advice from them. Until then the US needs to take a good hard look at itself and deal with all the problems back home before trying to fix problems in other countries where those citizens didn't vote for Obama or Bush or any other US administration. Exactly what sort of democracy does America believe in? Is democracy only valid when it represents the views of American people? What about the majority views of people in other countries?
