Absolutely not. In fact, it is questionable whether Wikileaks itself has done anything illegal given the decision of the United States Supreme Court in the Pentagon Papers case (that protected the publisher of secrets of the Vietnam War by Daniel Ellsburg under the First Amendment).

It is insensitive and stupid to post such things. Wikileaks is legal, but unnecessary and dangerous to many people worldwide. While exposing any bad things the government does is a good thing and part of the basis for the First Amendment, computer hacking and trying to overthrow democratic governments are not good things to do.
