carmatic Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/politics/wikileaks-set-to-reveal-what-us-really-thinks-of-david-cameron-2145790.html David Rothkopf, a foreign policy analyst in Washington and critic of Mr Cameron, when asked if it was true that Mr Obama had a low opinion of the Prime Minister, said: "I think you have it about right as far as views go. Initial reaction to Cameron was dubious, although there has been some adjustment of late in a more positive direction. I know the White House is in an absolute swivet over this, as is the State Department. There could be very rough days ahead."

SaLiVa Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 I guess that's good for England. It'll be a break from the lovey dovey, cuddly in the bed relationship Tony Blair had with George Bush. Less than half of England didn't like David Cameron either, it was only when they joined forces with the Liberals did he become leader. But it's not like Obama's opinion on the leader would matter anyhow. Business is business as usual.

FloatingFatMan Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 Hey, I'm a Tory, but *I* don't really like Cameron a great deal either. Of course, i don't really like ANY politicians, and that include Obama, too! They're all two-faced smarmy gits who are generally only in it for their own purposes and screw anyone else.

PreKe Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 I don't know about this... Is this stuff we really need to know about? I mean, it seems that the focus of this leak is to dig up who said the nastiest thing about who.

4CxbqFxVnstmA Veteran Posted November 28, 2010 Veteran Share Posted November 28, 2010 WikiLeaks is "currently under a mass distributed denial of service attack". Seems okay to me. Who would DOS it?

protocol7 Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 Sheesh. Basic life lesson #1: don't badmouth people if you're not prepared to face the consequences when they find out. And I don't need Wikileaks or Obama to tell me Cameron is a douche. That's plain for anyone to see.

Mouldy Punk Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 Here is quite an interesting one from after the last Iran elections. Also shows that some sources have been removed. There's quite a lot of stuff about Iran. The US and Russia are really edgy about their nuclear programs. I found something about a secret uranium enrichment plant.

Osiris Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 Fascinating stuff really. I think the only two issues we will get any public commentary on will be the UN spying issues and im sure Iran will use the matter as a squakbox to denounce something or rather.

Digitalx Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 this stuff is a bit of a laugh leaking intel docs to public for their interpretation. made me laugh how they included normal diplomatic and DoD comms with our government in it.

iwod Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 The last decent leader from UK was Tony Blair, although you may not agree with everything he has done or every policy he has made. I dont think Gordon Brown or D.C was up to Tony's Standard. And even David is lightweight, he is still be better then George W Bush whom I had NO IDEA WHY he was EVER voted a president.
