Why is Hillary Clinton so afraid of Wikileaks

[malaise]

Why shouldn't everyone know about Rumsfeld, Bush,Cheney and the dearly beloved Generals' war crimes.

[Scuba]

1. Thanks malaise. Again.

[BolivarianHero]

2. It's obvious...

Hillary was involved in some of the nasty shit that went down last year in Honduras.

[spanone]

3. who knows what the pentagon has told her....they wield some mighty power

[stray cat]

4. What have DUers learned that they did not already know from wikileaks?

A few names of informers maybe? OF course I would not give the US any intelligence if I knew they would post my name and info on the internet

[bigtree]

5. did you look to see what she's said on this?

She expressed concern for the safety of the diplomats she has deployed around the world.

What's the point in making it out to be anything else?

[aquart]

10. Hillary hatred is its own fine point.

It exists, unexamined, all by itself.

[bigtree]

13. I lean to disclosure

. . . but I can understand a SoS expressing concern about unauthorized release of government docs pertaining to her office and missions. It just not so out of hand as to suggest she's trying to cover some republican's ass by complaining publicly about it.

I'll give her critics the benefit of doubt as to their motives in questioning her statements, but I do wonder why we should be so willing to jump to the worst of conclusions, even if we disagree with her position.

[malaise]

12. Hillary and everyone else needs to know what was done in her

name and people should be punished. Enough of the sweeping of evil into oblivion.

[bigtree]

15. the docs will be released

. . . and the fur will fly where it may. Complaining about the release won't stop the scrutiny. She must know that.

[malaise]

17. Of course she knows that

She should push for the arrest of the war criminals

[bigtree]

18. perhaps she'll do that

. . . but I'd expect, as Secretary of State, only if her boss asks her to.

[political_Dem]

6. That is a very good question. K and R .

[stray cat]

7. Why are so many progressives in a hurry to broadcast names of intelligence sources

I did not know so many DUers think cheney was right to out Valerie Plane

[malaise]

14. People are still hunting down German intelligence people

who committed war crimes. You do the crime you pay.

[David__77]

19. As a counter-intelligence measure, it promotes world peace.

The US is the biggest threat to international peace and development. Reining in its geopolitical ambitions is helpful.

[stray cat]

8. Cheney was a hero to leak Valerie Planes position!

[aquart]

9. Really silly question.

No sane Secretary of State wants the US to look bad. And we look lousy.

[Individualist]

11. DLC is a strong supporter of the military industrial complex

Mustn't have anything bad published about the military, you know.

[xchrom]

16. Hillary does what the president wants

Not the other way around.

Unless of course you mean to impugn Obama.

[malaise]

20. I suspect you're right

but truth will out

[Bitwit1234]

21. I guess we have to have one Hillary bashing by somebody

every day. WHO IN HELL SAYS SHE IS AFRAID...
