Wikileaks has put whether it should release the cables to a vote on Twitter. Currently 'Yes' is out numbering 'No' 100 to 1.


People really can be naive sometimes. Yes, the content of those cables should be public knowledge. But the names of informants should not be released- I dread to think how many people could die as a result of this.


It seems like they're releasing them now - some pages say 143912 / 251287 released, others are already at 251287 / 251287.
