This is completely illogical and tinfoily. If an intelligence outfit knows something, it's unwise to show their cards. It reveals sources and methods to do so

This is completely illogical and tinfoily. If an intelligence outfit knows something, it's unwise to show their cards. It reveals sources and methods to do so. Nobody operates this way.
- NN88 11y agoformer intelligence analysts have suggested this. The USGovt would never admit this because it might backfire as merely attacking a leaker, whose leaks are legitimate. But the fact is, Wikileaks has to be judged on what they're not leaking.
- chatmasta 11y agoI'm not sure how "tinfoily" a suggestion is when it's referencing wikileaks. Wikileaks is in the business of conspiracies. It isn't much of a stretch to suggest a conspiracy might be behind wikileaks itself.
