Before the cables, there were the leaks on Afghanistan and Iraq that were unredacted.

Unsufficiently redacted, not unredacted. And mostly because the Pentagon refused to assist in the redacting.

The accusation was that the Afghan documents were not sufficiently redacted, but they were redacted. The Iraq War documents, released later, were more heavily redacted.
