A brief summary of a few of the details to emerge from the US embassy cables leaked by WikiLeaks
Saudi donors were chief financiers of militant groups such as al-Qaeda2
Saudi Arabia's King Abdullah “frequently exhorted the US to attack Iran to put an end to its nuclear weapons programme” and asked them to “cut off the head of the snake” at a meeting in 2008.2
Leaders in Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Egypt referred to Iran as "evil", an "existential threat" and a power that "is going to take us to war"3
Officials in Jordan and Bahrain have openly called for Iran's nuclear programme to be stopped by any means, including military.3
Iranian Red Crescent was used by Iran to smuggle Iranian weapons and agents to Hezbollah during 2006 Israel-Lebanon war.4
'He [a credible source] said Iran used the IRC to enter Iraq during the 1980-86 war between the two countries, to get into the Balkans in the 1990s and to support Shia opposition in Bahrain and Yemen from 1997-2000. According to the cable, he said he was asked to sign certificates for two or three al-Quds officers to travel to Iraq under cover of the IRC after the US invasion. He was then asked to sign between 10 and 30 certificates. He said he refused and they were signed by a superior.'4
Israel says Palestinian Red Crescent also help move Palestinian fighters around.4
Kim Jong-il, of North Korea, was said to suffer from epileptic fits2
'Iran had obtained missiles from North Korea to give it the capacity to launch strikes on capitals in Western Europe for the first time.'2
'According to a cable dated last Feb 24, North Korea sent to Iran 19 of the missiles, capable of carrying a nuclear warhead' and it 'significantly advanced Iran’s development of intercontinental ballistic missiles'2
'UAE foreign minister says Iran's support for terrorism is far broader than Hamas and Hizbollah'1
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is described as being 'like Hitler'.1
'King Abdullah who called President Asif Ali Zardari the greatest obstacle to progress, adding: “When the head is rotten, it affects the whole body.”'2
Libyan leader Colonel Gaddafi is accompanied everywhere by a ‘voluptuous blonde’ Ukrainian nurse.1

Comment: Not very politically correct talks in secret while censoring everyone else. Nothing too new or too much either. It can all be easily guessed even with the tiny amount of information that had been put up on this site over the past two months.
The real revelation from these leaks is the absence of any mention by the polite PC diplomats of the religion of Islam or Muslims and their culture, and the role they play in all of the world's problems.
As Germany's Family Minister Kristina Schröder said 'Religion was part of culture and culture shaped behaviour'
Or could it be that WikiLeaks did not leak any critical assessment of Islam, Muslims or their culture?
There is no hope of a solution unless the problem is honestly and truthfully stated.
And it is no time for political correctness when innocent people are being persecuted and even killed daily.
