He's telling the truth. Base64 encoding is simply a way to neatly package binary data for sending. Not encrypted at all, you can even download the unencrypted attachment by clicking in the "attachment" tab in wikileaks.

Base64 encoding is a very old and tested method of sending email attachments as 'text'.

This is not encryption. You're barking at shadows.

they are correct. what they quoted was the header/metadata of the file. What they are trying to say is if you did some research about what you saw in the header before posting, you wouldn't have jumped to the conclusions you made in your post.

the entire regular text can be downloaded from the attachments tab in the wikileaks page. A user ITT has copy and pasted the whole thing.
