Of course, there's another explanation: someone at a higher level of trust than Pfc. Manning is the real source, and Manning is just a convenient fall guy.
We can draw a picture of that source, just from what we know already. The source has access to diplomatic cable traffic, U.S. war reports, and even gun sight video across both major theaters of the war. Compartmentalization puts that person back inside the Washington, D.C., theater.
I was asking recently about the source of these leaks. I'm not a big conspiracy fan, but I've wondered if Manning was the sole source. I'd love to know the whole story. |
