US secret services incapable of keeping a secret.

Manchester attack: Police not sharing information with US

Police investigating the Manchester Arena bomb attack have stopped sharing information with the US after leaks to the media.

UK officials were outraged when photos appearing to show debris from the attack appeared in the New York Times.

It came after the name of bomber Salman Abedi was leaked to US media just hours after the attack, which left 22 dead.

Theresa May said she would tell Donald Trump at a Nato meeting that shared intelligence "must remain secure".

The UK's National Police Chiefs' Council described the "unauthorised disclosure" as a breach of trust which had potentially undermined a "major counter-terrorism investigation".

Counter-terrorism detectives have spoken in the past about how a delay of about 36 hours before the public know who is being investigated can allow known associates of the suspect to be arrested without being tipped off.

Sheesh - the U.S. intelligence has leaked millions of pages of docs in the last few years via Manning, Snowden, etc.

Frankly, anyone who gives their secrets to the U.S. at this point is kinda asking for it. Like taking a gold brick out of a bank vault and instead storing it in a cardboard box on a park bench and then coming back a week later and being surprised it's gone.

How can you say that Chinese intelligence is as efficient as a supercomputer when you are comparing them with US intelligence?
Can you compare it with some other intelligence service that is not leaking like a sieve :D
