I wonder where you would have stood when the Pentagon Papers were leaked. Would you have been one of those calling for Daniel Ellsberg's head, and had him thrown int oa dark hole and thorown away the key? After all, he stole top secret documents and gave them to unauthorised personnel, such as Senators and eventually the Media when the politicians refused to act. I've heard US politicians in the current debate making parallels saying buth should get capital punishment, executed in other words. Bradley, who stole and leaked the current documents, has been thorwn into solitary confinements for the last few months, all without being convicted of anything yet. The right to personal privacy is an entirely different thing to exposing government deceit of the public, or even war crimes. Naturally they will classify that Top Secret. Wikileaks has been discriminatory in what they publish, so far mainly embarrassing facts has been exposed, certainly nothing truly harmful to any individual, And showing tacit government approval of modern-day sex slavery in certain countries by way of looking the other way is certainly something the public has a right to know, something that is illegal everywhere. And what if the reasons for the Iraq war hadn't been exposed as a lie as it was, would that information not be relevant to the public? Just as the Pentagon papers exposed the lie of the Vietnam War?
Yes, Ellsberg acted politically in copying and handing the Pentagon Papers to journalists, and yes Bradley did the same in copying the intelligence communications and handing them to Wikileaks.
As for the Caman Islands records, if the people who are on those records have nothing to hide, they don't have to fear publication. You know what the Caman Islands are used for, laundering and hiding large sums of cash, from the tax man and the law.
