Don’t be like Chelsea Manning and Wikileaks, that is, indiscriminate, reckless and dangerous to both national security and human life... This is total horse shit. It is completely inaccurate and completely insulting to Manning, WikiLeaks and many many others.
A bit of mis-cue here, Jacob. Coderman is quoting Tarzie's post (http://ohtarzie.wordpress.com/2013/10/25/another-snowden-news-story-another-...). It criticizes *Greenwald* for implying, repeatedly, that whereas Edward Snowden, he, Laura Poitras, and the rest are being "responsible" by holding back and/or redacting 98+% of the NSA material, Manning and WikiLeaks were irresponsible. Thank goodness we've got good, proper gatekeepers on this one, with stellar liberal credentials and the civic spirit to withhold what we need to have withheld from us, drip-feed us heavily-redacted tidbits to "encourage debate" about how best to send the criminal Anglo-American Empire to its room with no supper, and no doubt round-file the rest. Peace, Mike
