| #8 As it was The Guardian that talked Wikileaks into releasing this information in the first place (took 6 consecutive hours of persuasion as I hear the story), it seems that The Guardian is the where we should be focusing our anger. They are staffed with anti-American political activists posing as journalists. |

| #7 Leaks will come from the Paleo side, not the Israeli side, as Israel will only "leak" with is useful to them. Israeli OPSEC is better than that of the US dept of State. Anybodys is. |

| #6 I suuppose this Artic should be no surprise given the well-reported lack of support the Paleos receive from their regional Brothers in Islam. They get assistance when it comes to violently attacking Israel vee Terrstrikes, but not much of anything else. IOW, HISTORY > suggests that even iff the Paleos get their State, MORE LIKELY THAN NOT THEY'LL HAVE TO ENGAGE IN BILATERAL COOPERATION WID THEIR DESPISED ISRAELI ENEMY FOR THEIR NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT. GREATER IRONY > even iff ISRAEL is indeed per se destroyed one day in the future, REGIONAL MUSLIM HISTORY = IT DOES NOT MEAN THE MUSLIM PALEOS WILL NOW GET TO RULE PALESTINE = THEIR LAND. {Cheif Wiggum + Lou here]. |

| #5 Malice against the Palestinians, I mean. Al Jazeera may be thrown out of the West Bank in response. |

| #4 In another Jpost article, it is revealed that the Palestinians think this document release by Al Jazeera was intended with malice aforethought. |

| #3 According to the Jerusalem Post, the WikiLeaks cache only shows the Palestinian side of things. It's terribly odd -- almost looks like Julian Assange is trying to sway public opinion. |

| #2 Yeah, yeah. If I recall, the Palestinians have seven times turned down straightforward offers of sovereignty since the beginning of the past century (two before 1948, I believe), not including interim negotiating positions. The leaked documents detail interim negotiating positions, when the Palestinians had committed to their own people to accept nothing less than everything from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea. Interestingly, between a significant drop in birth rate and serious emigration since 1967, there may soon not be enough Palestinians left to make an actual country. The Institute for Zionist Strategies pulled together a nicely readable little report back in 2009. |

| #1 The Al Jazeera angle. The question has to be asked, why did they allow The Guardian to publish before them? Or did the Guardian stitch them up? |
