| #8 Julian's escapade may have some unintended consequences of a positive kind - dialing up the brightness of the flashlight shining on the cockroaches in Pakistan's ISI. Almost all of the media attention here and abroad is focused on the ISI angle. It's so slanted that many journalists in India-Pak land are floating conspiracy theories about CIA disinformation. So it looks as if l'affair wiki's net effect will be to shield the US military and the Obama admin from accusations of BAbY-KKKilLerZ!!!! and focus everyone on the $hithole that is the bogus, made-up country called P.A.K.I.stan. Nice job, wikileakers! |

| #6 Col Imam, being held by the Taliban and facing death has appealed to General Gul to give in to the demands. Isn't General Gul supposed to be retired? |

| #4 Silly wikileaker tools. Thought they'd be shocking and terrifying the West into withdrawing and ending the war in Afghan, and instead they've bored the West with non-news while stirring up a(nother) potential war between India and Pakistan. Nice job! |

| #3 The ISI is a cancer on the region. It needs to be excised and destroyed. |

| #2 and this: The report includes a comment from the CIA Counterterrorism Center: "95% of the suicide attackers are trained in the 'Madrassa of Hashimiye' which is located in Peshawar district of Pakistan. Monthly, the former chief of ISI General Hamid Gul is visiting this madrassa." |

| #1 this observation by The Times is interesting for setting the groundwork for future whatever: The expose also suggests that Pakistan uses its retired and former generals in pursuit of its policy of state-run terrorism. Among its proxies is Lt-Gen Hamid Gul, a favourite of television anchors even in India whose pro-Taliban stance and conspiracy theories are said to provide an alternative narrative in the war on terror. But according to the documents accessed by WikiLeaks, Gul, a former ISI chief and one of Pakistan's top generals, is an active terrorist. In the documents, Gul is depicted as an adviser and an important source of aid to the Taliban. One report even calls him "a leader" of the insurgents. |
