I think the test should be whether the document has moral or just tactical significance. To give examples from the article: Guantanamo Bay interrogation manual? Moral significance; leak. Possible US use of chemical weapons? Moral significance; leak. US order of battle for 2009? No moral significance; don't leak. And in the interest of fairness: Al-Qaida interrogation manual? Leak. We need a picture of both/all sides' dirty laundry, and Wikileaks doesn't really give that.

> We need a picture of both/all sides' dirty laundry, and Wikileaks doesn't really give that. Just don't expect Wikileaks to be a one-stop-shop for leaked documents. And, BTW, I doubt Al Qaeda has such a document. That's not their style to document everything. One may interpret that as one of their major tactical strengths.
