Just something to add about what has been happening in the news this week about the wikileaks.

I think it is outrageous that someone would think to jeopardise the security of so many states however I think this just shows that in the world we live in nowadays, in regards to the levels of communication and technology we have, nothing can be kept secret, and this is of course fundamental to secret classical diplomacy.

Adding from this, many people believe that they have the right to involve themselves in issues such as diplomacy, but their intentions are malicious.

The new releases are of course fascinating but largely unsurprising.
