El delator de Bradley Manning, el ex hacker Adrian Lamo, entregó a Wired una copia del historial del chat que mantuvo con el oficial de inteligencia ahora arrestado en Kuwait. Los extractos publicados representaban alrededor del 25% de los registros. Algunas partes habían sido eliminadas por el propio Lamo, según Wired, por contener información personal sobre Manning o revelar información militar sensible.

Según el "diálogo completo" que ha circulado entre los investigadores del caso, evidencia que Wired censuró uno de los pasajes del chat que hace referencia a España. La cita a nuestro país se produce en un contexto de la conversación especialmente preocupante ya que el oficial de inteligencia, que habría tenido acceso a esta información confidencial, está explicando al que luego sería su delator algunos pormenores que le han escandalizado especialmente de las informaciones que aparecen en los "cables diplomáticos" confidenciales. Manning relata aspectos ocultos de las relaciones internacionales, por ejemplo una venta de armamento de EE.UU. a Pakistán encubierta en un "paquetes de ayuda" para agua y pan. Es entonces cuando un Manning que está expresando su "hartazgo y desencanto" por lo que ha podido descubrir, escribe a Adrian Lamo:

afecta a todos en la tierra ... en todas partes hay un cable de los EE.UU. ... hay un escándalo diplomático que revelar ... Islandia, el Vaticano, España, Brasil, Mada(ga)scar.

Para una mejor comprensión de la "conversación" hemos sustituido los nombres de mensajería instantánea de la pantalla por los nombres reales de Adrian Lamo y Bradley Manning. En negrita aparecen las partes de la conversación que Wired no ha publicado y se han enlazado algunas palabras que hacen referencia a bases militares o centros de detención con la única intención de situar al lector.
