*** The only thing I seen that was wrong about wikileaks was that “leaked” video of the Apache helicopter taking out a group of people some armed with RPG’s. ***

Military spokesman Turner said that during the engagement, the helicopter mistook a camera for a rocket-propelled grenade launcher.

*** How many CIA assets were killed because of WikiLeaks? ***

Robert Carr, a retired U.S. Army brigadier general who led an investigation into the leak, testified that he knew of “one individual that was killed” by the Taliban as a result of the leaks.

However, Carr conceded that the person killed hadn’t actually been named in the documents Manning gave to WikiLeaks.

Within the FBI, some agents reportedly suspected sloppy work by CIA handlers in Beijing might have been to blame for the losses. Former officials said that a restaurant used for meetings with sources had been fitted with listening devices and staffed with waiters who were Chinese agents.

Never, ever, ever use the same restaurant twice for any sources. Beijing has enough places to eat that you can go a lifetime without hitting the same spot twice.

Additionally, every single Chinese person is an asset for Chinese CI. If a CI person comes to them, they will tell the CI what they saw and will report if it happens again. Never let it happen twice.

If you have to have a meeting in Beijing, have the next one in the countryside, an outlier town. But never the same place twice.

Thank you sockmonkey. We can see with Benghazi and Afghanistan our politicians are TRYING to get our guys killed. Then they always blame it on someone else. Benghazi was blamed on a video on youtube that had a total of 17 views when it was accused.
