Something I just heard on TeeVee and just researched on the Google Machine was that none of Wiki's leaks were Top Secret. In fact, the stuff we're most pissed about (State Department cable leaks) were classified "Confidential," the third level from the top. US publications routinely publish leaks classified at this level. I think we should be much more concerned about the State Dept's ability to maintain its secrets, rather than someone who demonstrated the ease of accessing them.
