So, because of your experience in Afghanistan (you were there as an aid worker?) you have decided that wikileaks is somehow illegal.
There are fanatic idiots everywhere, that does not mean that we can't strive for a more open government, especially not when it has come to light time and time again that our governments and corporations do not just have secrets because we all benefit from them, but for the most part that they have secrets in order to cover up the lies and the corruption.
If it weren't for that wikileaks would not even exist.
I'll take the extra 0.000025% (that's a doubling) chance of dying in a terrorist attack because of that, which is still substantially less than dying of old age in my bed.

Stop being afraid.
