Leaked US military secrets
samedi 7 octobre 2023 à 12:34The former saboteur-in-chief has been accused of giving US military secrets to an Australian billionaire after leaving office.
I expect that this was a crime, and he ought to be prosecuted for it.
You will know that there are situations in which I think it is legitimate, even morally imperative, for whistleblowers to inform the public about certain kinds of government secrets, sometimes military secrets. Namely, those that involve grave wrongdoing (sometimes even war crimes) that the public needs to know about — for instance, crimes that Wikileaks revealed.
What the corrupter did here was unlike that on every dimension, He told one person privately, not the public. The secrets he told were of military importance but did not concert crimes that the public has a duty to be concerned with.
