<human>: I consider myself to be a fairly moderate person in terms of political views. I once considered myself a Republican but I eventually became disenfranchised with the stupidity that overcame the party (I'm looking at you, Fox News) and gave up on considering myself anything but an independent. 

So, flash forward to today and we have the WikiLeaks scandal and classified U.S. documents flying left and right. I'm not actually bothered too much by this. A lot of good can come from some transparency in government. Leaking things like a U.S. Apache helicopter crew killing two journalists, or the collateral damage in terms of civilian casualties is something essential that we, as Americans, have to take into account when considering that we are the people who initiated this conflict. At the same time, however, blanket carpet-bombing the internet with everything classified WikiLeaks can get their hands on, is a terrible idea. 

The international community has to remain confident in it's ability to negotiate with the US in confidentiality. They need this to negotiate worst case scenarios, and situations in where any outcome is a bad one, and our governments work to try to do the lesser evil. By negotiating and planning for the worst-case scenarios in our world, our government can remain stable and ensure that we are always protected. That's not to say some things in our diplomatic channels shouldn't be leaked. Outright corruption at our highest levels should be exposed, and those responsible should be brought to justice and held accountable.

Essentially, I don't think wikileaks is a good organization, or a bad organization. It just is what it is. Some of the things they do simply aren't right, and others expose things that we need to know about. Journalists should stop discussing whether or not WikiLeaks is evil or not and start worrying about what's being leaked, because they're not going away any time soon.

Give me the gist of the text in a nutshell
<bot>: People usually aren't "good" or "evil." Wikileaks isn't created by God himself to save us all, and neither is it run by a terrorist out to destroy the US.
