Yes, and if you boil down the content of the "leaks" (absent of all the media spin, and hoopla about how damaging it is to the administration) there is not a lot there. If you follow the narrative, it's more about perpetuating the official lie, and building up credibility in the public's eye by releasing small "tidbits" of harmless information.
This whole Wikileaks thing (IMO) is about setting down the foundation (of credibility) for something larger.
