One thought would be that the federal government shouldn't be able to own copyright to things, so once these are accessed, they don't have any intellectual property reasoning to not distribute them. In my mind, what the government owns is owned by all, and what the government knows should be known by all, because when the government speaks (in these cables) it speaks for us all.
Additionally, I feel that in general you shouldn't say something that you can't bear being repeated by others. Every child learns this. Yet, the government feels they can wheel and deal, and talk about other countries behind the backs of others and feel that the knowledge will never come out.
