That's true, but Wikileaks does share at least some of the blame for making the encrypted documents accessible. They're not immune to leaks themselves and should handle these incredibly sensitive documents accordingly. In this case, they failed to do so and an external party triggered a leak. Wikileaks should probably have deleted the documents alltogether.
