Australian FM Blames U.S. for the Wikileaks Scandal

According to CNN:


On Wednesday, the MasterCard website suffered a cyber-attack related to the current WikiLeaks scandal. Many news sources state that supporters of WikiLeaks were to blame for the attack, including one Twitter account which claimed responsibility. Australian Foreign Minister Kevin Rudd, however, states that the U.S. is responsible for leaking the documents in the first place. He told Reuters that the leaks raised questions about the quality of U.S. security over information. Rudd stated, "I have been pretty consistent about where the core responsibility lies in this entire matter, and that lies in the release of an unauthorized nature of this material by U.S. personnel."
