Is Wikileaks the Weapon of Mass Destruction of the Information age?

After the 9/11 terror attacks, we were all prepared at least psychologically to face terrorism in almost any form including hijacked airplanes, nuclear weapons, biochemical weapons, car bombs and mail bombs but none ever suspected that confidential information.. quarter of a million of them in the form of cable leaks released little by little over a week period by Wikileaks could have a much worse impact than an act of terrorism itself.

Although there is no loss of lives, nobody really knows what the real impact of this leak would be on our lives in the future, now that a huge amount of backroom diplomacy practices and opinions have been revealed and that's only Day 2 of a whole week of expected releases.

This will be like playing a strategy game as a team while the opposing team know all your strategies and future moves and you know nothing about theirs. Tough! This is no petty game. This is all about politics and foreign policy.
