Wikileaks.org exposes real side of Afghan war; posts 91,000 secret papers...

Unable to stop posting of 91,000 classified documents on whistleblower website wikileaks.org on Monday, the United States condemned the act as “irresponsible” while scurrying for cover.

The disclosure of Afghan War Diary documents from 2004 to 2009 on the website, biggest ever leak in intelligence history so far, provide the real side of the war, the civilian deaths caused by the foreign troops with the precise geographical location of each event, and the military units involved and major weapon systems used. It also throws light on Pakistan's role in the war.

Wikileaks.org, a whistleblower website set up by journalist Julian Assange, has so far posted more than 1.2 million documents which are secret in nature from all over the world. The current "Afghan War Diary 2004-2010" lists war documents which are also made available exclusively to the Guardian newspaper as well as the New York Times and German weekly Der Spiegel. More...
