But are we supposed to believe the government when they say it didn't cost lives? I'm just saying - very hard to say that they are lying liars but only when it suits us.
I think that you are thinking of the governments war crimes.
Outside of that, the beauty of the link below is that it pulls multiple sources.
As you can see below the pentagon and the state department both said that there is lack of evidence that anyone was killed as a result of Wikileaks drops.

The beauty of that link is that it provides multiple sources including Wikileaks etc. you can choose based off of the sources provided what you want to believe.
I’ve not seen any evidence that death occurred as a direct result of Wikileaks or Julian Assange.
