Le·gal In·sur·rec·tion "Why release these cables at this moment, when Bashar al-Assad is trying to suppress protests by blaiming foreign conspirators?
"Was it just coincidence that the cables were released as violence mounted in Syria? Either this was a cynical ploy by WikiLeaks to take advantage of the violence in Syria to generate publicity, or WikiLeaks recklessly disregarded the dangers such a release presents to the protesters.
"The support given to opposition groups in years past may have no connection to the people in the streets, but the WikiLeaks disclosure surely will be used by al-Assad as an excuse for even more brutal repression.
"WikiLeaks has given al-Assad a major gift, and the people of Syria will pay the price."
