Talk about shooting the messenger...

edit:

A guy who was in custody and then was let back into the wild is now threatening tribal elders (I am sure this is a brand spanking new tactic only used because of the leaks...) and this is some how Julian Assange's fault?

That is some interesting logic...
He let the names for these informants and friendlies remain in the documentation, the blood is absolutely on his hands.

The guy was in Gitmo and he was released under the promise by Obama to close it down and transfered to Afghan custody where he escaped, I get that.

But that fact that Wikileaks allowed those names to remain in those documents has lead directly to the death of an informant.
