Geopolitical TMZ/PerezHilton - Wikileaks Cliff Notes
Now I know how my mom feels when she reads TMZ.
Here's the latest dish that was stolen from US diplomatic cables: - Chinese Politburo directed "Operation Aurora". Basically they recruited government security experts, and internet outlaws to attack and infiltrate Google, Adobe, Northrom Gruman, Yahoo and other American Internet companies. - America and South Korea are planning for a reunified Korea and are discussing ways to help salve China. South Korea believes that the right business deals would put China at ease. -Guantanamo Bay Detainee Sweepstakes: The US pressured Slovenia to take a prisoner off their hands. They threatened to deny an Obama visit if they didn't. The island nation of Kiribati was offered to take millions of incentives if they took some Chinese Muslim insurgents. -This may come as a shocker, but allegedly the Afghan government is really really corrupt. The vice president carries 52 million in cash wherever he goes. No one asks for the origin. -Saudi Arabian financiers remain the principal financiers of terrorists groups. Another Shocker. -American contacts on the ground report to an eerily close relationship between Vladimir Putin and Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi. -Although Putin is still regarded as supreme in Russian affairs, he is frequently undermined by the large Russian bureaucracy that often undermines his edicts.

I want to see what the Ukrainian nurse that Ghadfi keeps around looks like.

More juicy bits: -Strong Arab distrust for Iran, and encouragement from Arab leaders for a military strike on the nuclear facilities in Iran. Saudi King Abdullah has repeatedly urged the United States to attack Iran's nuclear facilities. -Claims that the Iranian Red Crescent is actively controlled by the government and are involved in illicit arms smuggling and intelligence gathering on behalf of Iran. -A directive from Secretary of State Hillary Clinton ordered US diplomats to gather biometric information on the UN secretary general, Ban Ki-moon, and top UN officials, including passwords and personal encryption keys used in private and commercial networks for official communications. -Saudi King Abdullah called President Asif Ali Zardari of Pakistan the greatest obstacle to the country's progress. "When the head is rotten," he said, "it affects the whole body." -Alleged links between the Russian government and organised crime. -Claims of inappropriate behaviour by a member of the British Royal Family. The Saudi King is kind of a trash talker!

Pretty underwhelming if you ask me.

Here's a harrowing human interest story about an elderly L.A. Dentist's escape from Iran in 2009:

The real news story in all this is the massive leak itself, I think.
Diplomats talking shit about officials from other countries, and Saudi Arabia asking for a war in Iran? That's old news.
