Hollismason posted:The Rosenbergs were literally spies for the Russian government and provided Nuclear Secrets. Manning released documents that showed the US government covered up the murder of innocent civilians in Iraq. She did right in releasing some of it. Releasing the diplomatic cables was a dick move.

Sephyr posted:Ubless she handed them directly to foreign government agents or sold them for cold hard cash, it is. Daniel Ellsberg also broke sensitive state and defense information to the world, in a time of war and with a very vital USSr on the board to capitalize on it, and he's still a whistleblower. Releasing random diplomatic cables is not whistleblowing - it is not illegal for diplomats to have opinions so there's nothing to whistleblow about.

Agnosticnixie posted:I'm glad Lybia managed to have a lower body count than most US interventions. That doesn't make it a good track record except in the utterly evil mind of a technocratic gently caress. It also has a lower body count than non-interventions such as Rwanda or the Great African War so therefore interventions are good.
