Massive WikiLeaks Document Dump Coming - Superbombs & Secret Jails: -By Spencer Ackerman
Edited on Fri Oct-15-10 09:13 AM by kpete
Another massive WikiLeaks document dump coming, this time about Iraq. What to expect
Superbombs and Secret Jails: What to Look for in WikiLeaks’ Iraq Docs

The Afghanistan war logs were just the beginning. Coming as early as next week, WikiLeaks plans to disclose a new trove of military documents, this time covering some of the toughest years of the Iraq war. Up to 400,000 reports from 2004 to 2009 could be revealed this time — five times the size of the Afghan document dump.

It’s a perilous time in Iraq. Politicians are stitching together a new government. U.S. troops are supposed to leave by next December.

Pentagon leaders were furious over the Afghanistan documents, but the American public largely greeted them with yawns. Iraqis might not be so sanguine.

It’s hard to imagine Iraq will fall back into widespread chaos over the disclosures. But they can’t be good for the United States, as it tries to create a new postwar relationship with Iraq, or for the 50,000 U.S. troops and diplomats still over there.

1. Do it or shutup, I say.
We have had too many of these speculations about what might happen "soon".

2. Still waiting on the Granai footage they promised in April.
