The revelations of WikiLeaks have taken the world by storm and embarrassed the Obama Administration in the United States.  But when I look at the content of the leaked American diplomatic cables  regarding Pakistan and Afghanistan, I feel nothing new in them. 
The Army Chief  calls the shots in Pakistan and it’s a universal truth. How the  generals play double games, that’s also known by everyone. So whatever  the former American Ambassador has reported from Islamabad (in the  leaked cables), is actually an open secret in our country. For  journalists, researchers and historians, these cables have value just  because responsible diplomats of the Super Power have documented them in  a bureaucratic way—thus they’re citation material for everyone. 
I feel, many things, being discussed in a  journalistic circle, are missing in the WikiLeaks. I want to count a few  of them in this blog in the hope that The Terrorland Team (TTT)  will not edit them. Discussing such things will bring the hidden truth  out. Only truth can make national organizations credible and stronger;  hiding them will bring more embarrassments to Pakistan in the future!
