Pakistan ISI, Taliban Support, New York Times Reporting
The WikiLeaks documents are discussed in the context of the Pakistani Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) and its alleged support for the Taliban and the Haqqani network. Mark Mazzetti of the New York Times explains the process of vetting the leaked documents with the White House to protect national security and informants. The hosts argue that the information about the ISI has been known for years and that the "advanced leak" to major publications suggests a coordinated marketing effort.
