WikiLeaks drops a new mixtape on totally suspecting public

WikiLeaks dropped a new mixtape today, this time a massive dump of secret diplomatic cables.

New York Times notes: a potentially disastrous standoff with Pakistan over nuclear fuel, American discussions with South Korea over a possible collapse of North Korea, bargains to close Guantanamo Bay, corruption in the Afghan government, a Chinese effort to hack Google, an intriguing alliance between Russian PM Putin and Italian PM Berlusconi.

The Guardian notes: Arab leaders pushing for an attack on Iran, spying on UN leadership, links between the Russian government and organized crime, “devastating criticism” of the UK’s military operations by US military leadership, inappropriate comments made by a member of the British royal family about a UK law enforcement agency.

Duck of Minerva is not terribly surprised. Andrew’s, for the most part, reassured. Blake Hounshell at Foreign Policy wonders if Wikileaks has gone too far this time.
