Wikileaks Wednesday, March 28 published mails indicating that Binyamin Netanyahu may have been a source ol the US Stratfor research site. Its Vice President for intelligence Fred Burton claimed in e-mails he was in contact with Netanyahu from May 2007 up until 2010 after he became Prime Minister. One e-mail said that in Dec. 2009, “BB” told him Iran has “two nukes on missiles ready to go.” The Prime Minister’s Office in Jerusalem has not commented on the publication.

The WikiLeaks releases do not live up to their billing for fatally damaging US diplomacy and its international reputation. Some of the leaks, especially those vilifying Iran, raise questions as to whose interests they really serve.

Tehran sees the WikiLeaks disclosure of broad antipathy for Iran as deliberate American mischief-making rather than an assault on US diplomacy. Saudi and other Arab leaders shown hustling Washington to strike Iran's nuclear sites was bad enough.

The first batch of WikiLeaks released Sunday, Nov. 28, covered five years of private exchanges from 2005 between US embassy diplomats and Israeli security chiefs on Iran.

According to the advance headlines from the first batch of quarter of a million WikiLeaks confidential US files, mostly diplomatic cables, run by The German Der Spiegel, US officials are quoted as referring to Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is "Hitler," French President Nicolas Sarkozy, the emperor who has no ...

debkafile's sources confirm the WikiLeaks revelation that Iran developed camera-equipped suicide vests for al Qaeda's attacks on US troops under the instruction of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad Center in Tehran. Our sources have discovered the Islamic Jihad's "Jerusalem Brigades" in the Gaza Strip equipped with those same SVIED (Suicide Vest Improvised Explosive Devices) some of which they have transferred to al Qaeda cells at large in the Palestinian territory.

WikiLeaks' 400,000 classified US documents on the 2004-2009 years of the Iraq War laid bare a catalogue of extreme abuse by Iraqi forces against fellow Iraqis and Iran's deep involvement in terrorist operations against Americans and Iraqis alike. The US is shown to have turned a blind eye to both. debkafile's analysts question the point of a war which replaces brutal Saddam Hussein with a Tehran-sponsored terrorist and gave Iran a springboard for spreading its domination.

Behind the WikiLeaks disclosures is a US-British battle for control of money, oil and intelligence interests, peaking with the struggle to control the BP oil giant.
