I think that the government WAY overblew the impact of the first set of leaks, so I'm really not inclined to believe them as far as this situation.

Now, if a more legitimate source says there is a risk of death or damage to anyones property, and when I say damage I mean as little as a broken window on someone's home, then I would suggest he's in the wrong. But, to this point, Assange has been careful about this. He showed the state dept what he was going to show, giving them the opportunity to remove any information that could cost lives, and they declined to go through it. If it really is about transparency in government, then hopefully that will continue.
