I think this is the correct thread to say that it speaks volumes for the inability of the US to apply the most basic of security measures to sensitive documents.
I was just thinking exactly the same.

All the lengths that Foreign Nations goto to meet "strict US security demands" - and then you have some (assume low ranking) intel guy in Baghdad able to access sensitive embassy reports about a member of the royal family. Why on earth does that type of info need to be widely accessible by anybody?

Even noting the information superiority benefits of generally being able to access anything anywhere - there is surely something seriously wrong with the access permissions (or total lack thereof), is there not!
