Earlier today I spent an hour with NPR's Marty Moss-Coane at the WHYY studio in Philadelphia. Lawrence Korb also joined the conversation.
We discussed the Wikileaks documents, the impact on national security, and the danger to US troops and to Afghans who have cooperated. Interestingly enough, Marty and I agreed that the release of documents is indeed a danger to Afghans and Coalition forces, while Lawrence disagreed. We also discussed Pakistan's role in the Afghan insurgency and negotiations with the Taliban.
