The thing I find funny is that these leaks are intended to mislead Russia.
If the Russian military is getting its intel on Ukraine from reading the NYT, then things are in a truly sorry state. The leaks are clearly for domestic consumption.
This in turn begs the question - why were these documents leaked? Once that is answered, all will be revealed - who leaked them and whether and to what extent they are authentic.
You ask an excellent question. Funnily enough, I have just posted a podcast episode in which I agree with a few ex-CIA lads in answering it. Its a companion piece to the article.
