Wikileaks
Majority in Arab world backs Wikileaks
Former National Security Council member Gary Sick on WikiLeaks, Iran and the Arab world
What do you think of the cable in WikiLeaks about King Abdullah s statement on Iran? Of course this is nothing new. We have long known that most Arab governments are scared of a nuclear Iran. At the same time, the Iranian government doesn t really care about such opinions. Do you think such leaks create more friction between Iran and its neighbors?
