Washington has warned its ally Israel of potential embarrassment from the expected release of US diplomatic cables on whistle-blowing website WikiLeaks, an Israeli newspaper said on Thursday.
A senior Israeli official, quoted in Haaretz, said it has been informed that WikiLeaks plans to release hundreds of thousands of diplomatic cables, some of which could include confidential reports from the US embassy in Tel Aviv.
"The Americans said they view the leak very seriously," he told the paper, on condition of anonymity.
"They don't know when they will be released on the Internet and what exactly they say, but they didn't want us to read about it in the newspapers," the Israeli official said.
Embassy spokesman Kurt Hoyer, contacted by AFP, declined to comment except to say that such leaks could put lives at risk.
"The cables date from the past five years and include media reports, talks with politicians, government officials and journalists, as well as evaluations and various analyses by American diplomats regarding their host countries," according to Haaretz.

The list, ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
Who released the the leaks???
Maybe Israel will do what we should have done, put out a hit on the guy at WikiLeaks.
I’m guessing these leaks will be Americans admitting that the whole peace process is intended to bring about the eventual collapse of Israel.
I wonder who’s funding “Wikileaks”? They seem to be highly selective in their targets.
Who in the Dept. of State has revealed this information ?
I have no doubt that Pres. Obama personally released or authorized the release of the Wikileaks documents, an impeachable offense.
**intended to bring about the eventual collapse of Israel.**
and at best, Israel will find out Exactly what the FUHRER thinks of them.
Israel, the american people are with you, but as to government... you’re On your own.. do what you need to do!!
and may G-d bless ISRAEL!!
the obama administration wants embarrassing information out for some nefarious purpose, a reset or throwing all the chess pieces in the air to start the game over,
Sites that “might” promote file sharing have been “seized.” Wikileaks continues to operate.
These “leaks” wouldn’t be happening if someone didn’t want it to happen.
With the administration's constant attacks on Israel since they came into office, one certainly has to question the public nature of the warning and its timing.
Put him on the terrorist watch list.
Oh, they know exactly what is in the documents about to be released.
The release has been coordinated with Assange.
IMHO
It’s the other way around, IMHO..IF Obama wants to keep it sealed, then there is evidence AGAINST HIM in the leaks.
GEORGE SOROS
An "entity" want this crap released. Question is who?
In days past, these "leakers" would already be in the ground, and for far less..
the last dump came from some jilted fag... where did this one come from???
Interesting take.
On what basis do we think Obama really wants to keep these documents secret?
Any White House or State Department leaks indicating Obama or Hillary are genuinely outraged?
Why do I have the niggling feeling that the leaks are orchestrated from the highest up? Like ‘someone’ that wants to totally destroy this country?
