Warfare: Now that the Taliban are scouring WikiLeaks for names of allies to kill from a trove of stolen U.S. documents, the White House is begging the site not to publish more. It should make WikiLeaks an enemy target.
The horror we feared would happen is here. Friday, the New York Times reports the Taliban is studying 75,000 classified U.S. documents posted on WikiLeaks for names of informants, potential defectors and others who cooperated with American and NATO forces in Afghanistan.
"We are studying the report," a gleeful Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid told the Times. "If they are U.S. spies, then we know how to punish them."
That means death for any Afghan who ever cooperated with us because those reports are loaded with names, identifying villages, parentages and potential defectors. WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange threatens to publish more documents and publicly sneers at the prospect of deaths, mockingly saying the U.S. should launch criminal inquiries on U.S. soldiers instead.
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Admiral Mike Mullen warns that Assange may "already have blood on his hands." The White House response is to focus on begging Assange, who leaked the documents, to stop.
"Well, we can do nothing but implore the person that has those classified, top secret documents not to post anymore," said spokesman Robert Gibbs on Friday.
That's not good enough. These leaks are a disaster for the U.S. war effort because its strategy depends on informants.

It is time to call in Interpol.
Lamh Foistenach Abu!
Sounds to me like we have identified a new target as well.
Somebody needs to get him and shut him down. Of course, it won’t happen.
Australia?
The right approach to dealing with this is to prosecute people who leak this information to the fullest extent the law allows. Surely someone who does this could (and should) be charged with treason, convicted, and given a well-deserved death sentence.
Beg with a bullet.
He’s aiding our enemies, he should be considered a enemy asset and terminated with extreme prejudice.
I hope they throw the ‘boy’ who did this away for 50 some odd years....
hard labor.....
give him some time to think, reflect.
And here we are with an incompetent for president.
-OR-....could this be a rouse....with the names of the really bad guys listed as supporters???
Na, really don’t think they guys running the show right now on our side are that smart.
Pity.
Wrong. It's time to call in a CIA hit squad on this f*** and pop him a new a**hole right in the middle of his forehead.
If the Administration can order the killing of US Citizens, he can order the killing of this piece of s***.
It’s much worse than that.

If you cut off the head of a snake... it dies.

This is very upsetting to the New York Times!
It took 9 responses to come up with the right answer.
The head guy at Wikileaks should be killed immediately as an object lesson to others and the guy who sent him the information shouldn’t last the night out.
This is a whole swarm of snakes.
Treason ends with hangings.

Do not be surprised if the site (wikileaks) gets “hacked” down the road.
