Unlikely. The terrorists have known for years that all of their technology was compromised by the US government. Osama Bin Laden would send his people hundreds of kilometers away to make phone calls on his behalf.

Also, it was Eugene Kaspersky that pointed the finger at the US and Israel over Stuxnet and Flame.

The only thing these documents do is make it clear the NSA has been lying or spinning much of the denials about these programs to avoid public scrutiny.

Public scrutiny? I, for one, don't really care if the NSA does these things, and I don't think most people in the US do. Or do you mean scrutiny from other governments, and people outside the US? Then yes, it seems like a pretty good idea to keep it covert.
