What happened after Collateral Murder except that Manning was found out and imprisoned, thereby removing a liability in the US military? What happened after the scandal at Abu Ghraib except letting Iraqis know what will happen to them if they fight or even cross paths with a US soldier?
We can also look beyond the US stuff; Wikileaks has released plenty of documents on Iran, China and Syria to name just 3 (this was their stated purpose and is pointed out in the article, wikileaks was first started to go after the enemies of the US). The point of building credibility is to then redirect sentiment to the actual target with the segment of the population that does not normally consider that target to be an enemy. Much like Jackson Hinkle is going to be doing soon imo.

People like us learned about it and started rejecting US imperialist propaganda. Even the general sheep who only watch CNN and Fox News occasionally see some coverage about Assagne and US war crimes. And how their government covers it up.
In the past people would say that “America doesn’t do this kind of stuff”. If you said anything factual during the Iraq war they’d ridicule you like they did at the start of Israel’s genocide in Gaza.
These days I never hear that argument anymore. Everyone has accepted that the American military is ran by war criminals.
