Or maybe it's the kind of stuff that needs to be handled more carefully? It depends on what it means. For example if it's a list of American agents in Iran it either shouldn't be released or it should be released with every single name blacked out (which would just show how many of them there are).

So far with this latest bunch of cables they have been careful not to directly endanger lives.

That doesn't sound like "information that would change world history" to me.  To me a statement like that sounds like their is supposed to be some werid conspiracy theory that's true... like 9/11 was an inside job, FDR let pearl harbour happen, Clinton was compliant in a genocide or Russia and the USSA were always on good terms and it was all a show so borth orgizinations could gain more power.

Besiides, Wikileaks is a huge orginization... it shouldn't take that long to censor.

Well I was just assuming it was mostly hyperbole. To be fair the leak itself has change world history, much more so than anything actually in the leaks so far.

Here is just a funny Wikileaks thing that makes me wish Stof was still around.

Michael Moore's "Sicko" was banned from... Cuba.

"because it painted such a "mythically" favourable picture of Cuba's healthcare system that the authorities feared it could lead to a "popular backlash""

Michael Moore's films are so bad that even the people who are honored by them don't want anything to do with them.

"But the memo reveals that when the film was shown to a group of Cuban doctors, some became so "disturbed at the blatant misrepresentation of healthcare in Cuba that they left the room"."

Oooh, and an interseting one that shows Cuba and the US oddly working together

Also... countries stop pressing Cuba over human rights violations for economic favors.... including, Canada, Australia....

You know... ambassador's cables read a lot like angry forum posts.  I always thought they weer a lot more proffesional.

I've only watched half of this yet but it's definitely worth a watch: (ok forget the last half)

Amazing.

There¿s a couple interesting videos relating to wikileaks, gonna post them on the next page.
