"WIKILEAKS/WIKIPEDIA: TRUTH serving LIES (with CIA/MOSSAD oversight)
"All this 'whistleblowing' does little other than serve the interests of the US possibly expanding their war... We know that the powers-that-be are determined to control both sides of every argument. They lead the opposition against themselves. That's why "Stop The War" will not even MENTION 9/11 Truth and exclude from the ranks of their leadership anyone who wants to raise reasonable questions about the events of 9/11...
Wikileaks founder Julian Assange is 'annoyed' by 9/11 truth. That there IN ITSELF makes him, to any sensible person, a placeman of the security services.

"WIKILEAKS WORKS FOR THE CIA AND MOSSAD?
In January 2007, John Young, who runs cryptome.org, left Wikileaks, claiming the operation was a CIA front.
Asian intelligence sources reportedly state that: "Wikileaks is running a disinformation campaign, crying persecution by U.S. intelligence- when it is U.S. intelligence itself." (soros & co back wikileaks / kosher mob & oval office)""Dangerous Conspiracy Theories
The sudden and widespread popular reactions to the Wikileaks story which contains proof of US and NATO war crimes, demonstrates the potential powderkeg to be tapped by the right torcher-bearer. Government leaders undoubtably understood the great potential danger risked by allowing the release of the Wiki documents, but, being the practitioners of Nazi mind-science that they are, they fully understood the potential rewards to be reaped by the correct handling of the leaks and Western reporting on them. Popular emphasis upon the Pakistani angle of Wiki revelations could help create a national consensus for attacking Taliban bases in Pakistan.
The Wikileaks were a document dump, intended to overwhelm researchers and to preoccupy they, studying the Empire’s past moves, in order to distract us from our new focus upon the present, looking towards the future. Look for the release of an even greater document dump from Wikileaks in the near future, as they dump their Iraq files onto the Internet. Another effect of the Wiki document dump is that it has flooded search engines with countless new variations on the search for “American war crimes,” or info on important key battles or screw-ups, making it even more impossible to find information on Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, or anything covered in the leaks. This will muddy the waters for us even more and make it even less likely in the future that we will stumble across important evidence of ongoing criminal activity.

Papers reveal doubt Pakistan is true US ally (By Mark Mazzetti, New York Times)
I already had enough FRONT-PAGE reading:
"Leaked archive casts stark light on Afghan war; US classified files depict grim trends, ally’s failings" by C.J. Chivers, New York Times | July 26, 2010
NEW YORK — A six-year archive of classified military documents made public yesterday offers an unvarnished ground-level picture of the war in Afghanistan that is in many respects more grim than the official portrayal.
Translation: You have been and are being lied to, Americans.
The secret documents, being released on the Internet by an organization called WikiLeaks, are a daily diary of an American-led force often starved for resources and attention as it struggled against an insurgency that grew larger, better coordinated, and more deadly each year.
The New York Times, the British newspaper The Guardian, and the German magazine Der Spiegel were given access to the voluminous records several weeks ago on the condition that they not report on the material before yesterday.
The documents — some 92,000 reports spanning parts of two administrations from January 2004 through December 2009 — illustrate in mosaic detail why, after the United States has spent almost $300 billion on the war in Afghanistan, the Taliban are stronger than at any time since 2001....
It's time to cut our losses and leave, America.
Oh, APOLOGIZING ALL the way out!
The documents sketch a war hamstrung by an Afghan government, police force, and army of questionable loyalty and competence, and by a Pakistani military that appears at best uncooperative and at worst working from the shadows as an unspoken ally of the very insurgent forces the American-led coalition is trying to defeat.
The material is being published as Congress and the public grow increasingly skeptical of the deepening involvement in Afghanistan and its chances for success as next year’s deadline to begin withdrawing troops looms.
The archive is a vivid reminder that the Afghan conflict until recently was a second-class war, with money, troops, and attention lavished on Iraq while soldiers and Marines lamented that the Afghans they were training were not being paid.
I'm offended by the insulting terminology.
WARS are NEVER SECOND-CLASS here, f***er!!!!!!
The reports shed light on some elements of the war that have been largely hidden from the public eye:
Well, gee, whose fault would that be, s*** MSM?
■ The documents suggest that Pakistan, ostensibly an ally of the United States, allows representatives of its spy service to meet directly with the Taliban in secret strategy sessions to organize networks of militant groups that fight against American soldiers in Afghanistan, and even hatch plots to assassinate Afghan leaders.
The records also contain firsthand accounts of American anger at Pakistan’s unwillingness to confront insurgents who launched attacks near Pakistani border posts, moved openly by the truckload across the frontier, and retreated to Pakistani territory for safety.
And it is the NYT bringing you these revelations, huh?
The same s***ters who front-paged and screamed the Iraq lies?
■ The Taliban have used portable heat-seeking missiles against allied aircraft, a fact that has not been publicly disclosed by the military. This type of weapon helped the Afghan mujahedeen defeat the Soviet occupation in the 1980s.
Time to leave before we become the Soviets, America.
You know what happened to their empire, right?
■ Secret commando units like Task Force 373 — a classified group of Army and Navy special operatives — work from a “capture/kill list’’ of about 70 top insurgent commanders. These missions, which have been stepped up under the Obama administration, claim notable successes, but have sometimes gone wrong, killing civilians and stoking Afghan resentment.
In other words, HE IS WORSE than GEORGE BUSH when it comes to Afghans!
■ The military employs more and more drone aircraft to survey the battlefield and strike targets in Afghanistan, although their performance is less impressive than officially portrayed. Some crash or collide, forcing American troops to undertake risky retrieval missions before the Taliban can claim the drone’s weaponry.
But, but, but.... my AmeriKan newspaper always tells me the whole truth, doesn't it?
■ The Central Intelligence Agency has expanded paramilitary operations inside Afghanistan. The units launch ambushes, order airstrikes, and conduct raids. From 2001 to 2008, the CIA paid the budget of Afghanistan’s spy agency and ran it as a virtual subsidiary.
That is BECAUSE it IS!
And I'm GLAD you had the TAX DOLLARS to DO ALL THIS, America!!
Overall, the documents do not contradict official accounts of the war. But in some cases the documents show that the American military made misleading public statements: attributing the downing of a helicopter to conventional weapons instead of heat-seeking missiles or giving Afghans credit for missions carried out by Special Operations commandos.
Oh, I'M SHOCKED!!!
The AmeriKan military lied!
Is there NOTHING you can believe in anymore?!!
White House officials vigorously denied that the Obama administration had presented a misleading portrait of the war in Afghanistan....
I'm already sick of his s** administration.
NEXT!
The archive is clearly an incomplete record of the war. It is missing many references to seminal events and does not include more highly classified information. The documents also do not cover events in 2010....
They suggest that the military’s internal assessments of the prospects for winning over the Afghan public, especially in the early days, were often optimistic, even naive.
There are fleeting — even taunting — reminders of how the war began in the occasional references to the elusive Osama bin Laden. In some reports he is said to be attending meetings in Quetta, Pakistan.
HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA!!!
Pretty good movement for a DEAD GUY!!
You will need that to get him to the meeting.
Bin Laden has supposedly ordered a suicide attack against the Afghan president, Hamid Karzai. These reports all seem secondhand at best.
I was thinking of something else, NYT.
Yeah, that is it!!!
The reports portray a resilient, canny insurgency that has bled American forces through a war of small cuts. The insurgents set the war’s pace, usually fighting on ground of their own choosing and then slipping away.
And HERE WE AmeriKans were told WE ARE IN CHARGE and WE ARE WINNING and OUR PLANS are SUCCEEDING!
You know, THIS "leak" DESTROYS any future faith in this government or MSM.
Once again we see ANOTHER BACKFIRE by tPtB!
Sabotage and trickery have been weapons every bit as potent as small arms, mortars, or suicide bombers. So has Taliban intimidation of Afghan officials and civilians, applied with pinpoint pressure. The insurgents use a network of spies, double agents, collaborators, and informers — anything to undercut coalition forces and the effort to build a credible and effective government capable of delivering security and services.
They have their own CIA and FBI?
And they are ONE-UP on you over that LAST ONE, Americans!
The reports repeatedly describe instances when the insurgents have been seen wearing government uniforms, and other times when they have appeared for battle in the very pickup trucks that the United States had provided the Afghan army and police force.
Related: The Boston Globe's Invisible Ink: False Flags Flying High in Afghanistan
WTF?
The reports paint a disheartening picture of the Afghan police and soldiers at the center of the American exit strategy.
What exit?
The Pentagon is spending billions of dollars to train the Afghan forces to secure the country. But the police have proved to be an especially risky investment and are often described as distrusted, even loathed, by Afghan civilians.
Those are OUR GUYS!
The reports recount episodes of police brutality, corruption petty and large, extortion, and kidnapping.
We trained them well.
Some police officers defect to the Taliban. Others are accused of collaborating with insurgents.
The documents also show how American efforts to help rebuild Afghanistan through provincial reconstruction teams ran up against a bewildering array of problems as they tried to win over the public by helping repair dams and bridges, build schools, and train local authorities.
After knocking them down and killing their families and friends.
Incident by incident, the reports show ways Afghan civilians were killed — not just in airstrikes but in ones and twos — in misunderstandings or in a cross-fire, or in chaotic moments when Afghan drivers ventured too close to convoys and checkpoints.
Yup PICKING THEM OFF one-by-one!
The dead, the reports indicate, were not suicide bombers or insurgents, and many of the cases were not reported to the public at the time. The toll of the war — reflected in mounting civilian casualties — left the Americans seeking cooperation from an Afghan population that grew steadily more exhausted, resentful, fearful, and alienated.
It is TIME FOR US to LEAVE, AmeriKa!!
I mean RIGHT NOW!!!

"WikiLeaks emerges as superpower in antisecrecy fight; Website defends decision to release classified reports" by Ellen Nakashima, Washington Post | July 27, 2010
Oh, now my CIA paper tells me they are a superpower!
WASHINGTON — WikiLeaks, an amorphous network run by volunteers in more than a dozen countries, gained global prominence this year when it posted a video of a secret US military helicopter attack in Iraq that killed civilians.
An edited, 17-minute version of the gunship-footage video appeared on WikiLeaks on April 5 under the heading “collateral murder,’’ a label that drew harsh criticism from military officials and many media commentators.
Also see: Wikileaks Whistleblower
In this case, rather than conduct its assessment of the documents, WikiLeaks selectively provided the files to the Times, the London-based Guardian newspaper and the German magazine Der Spiegel. The outlets agreed to publish simultaneously, though each organization did its own reporting and produced its own stories.
This is where they started losing me and where I started smelling something.
The move to let established journalistic organizations do the reporting and analysis “may reflect a maturing of the organization and model that they have adopted,’’ said Steven Aftergood, director of the Federation for American Scientists’ Project on Government Secrecy.
Then NOTHING that comes forth from them shall be considered credible or coming without an agenda -- considering the MSM's record.
The news organizations said they agreed they would not disclose anything likely to put lives at risk or jeopardize military or antiterrorist operations....

"White House defends Afghan war strategy" by Eric Schmitt and Helene Cooper, New York Times | July 27, 2010
WASHINGTON — A senior ISI official, speaking on condition of anonymity, sharply condemned the reports as “part of the malicious campaign to malign the spy organization’’ and said the ISI would “continue to eradicate the menace of terrorism with or without the help of the West.’’
Expressing dismay over the reports, the official said the Pakistan military and its spy organization had suffered tremendously while leading the forefront of the war against terror. “Pakistan is the biggest victim of terrorism,’’ he said. “Why then are we still targeted?’’ he asked....
I'll tell you in a minute.
Farhatullah Babar, spokesman for President Asif Ali Zardari, questioned how Pakistan could possibly have the kind of connections to the Taliban that some of the reports suggest, asking if “those who are alleging that Pakistan is playing a double game are also asserting that President Zardari is presiding over an apparatus that is coordinating attacks on the general headquarters, mosques, shrines, schools, and killing Pakistani citizens?’’
Okay:
"Now stop and think here for a moment. All revolutions depend on public support. Revolutionaries try to first win the people before they take on the government. So, no revolutionary goes out and murders civilians in cold blood. Did Washington and his men just mow down a marketplace of their fellow colonials for the heck of it? No, they did not. Washington and the Founding Fathers knew that their revolution to build a new country needed the support of those who would live in that country. This is true for every revolution in history. Therefore, these acts of terror being blamed on the insurgency must all be fakes, committed by intelligence agencies working for the governments to be blamed on the insurgents in order to destroy public support for the revolution." -- Wake the Flock Up
Yes, they are called false flags and the people are catching on all over the world.

And not just because they have to be up for prayers.

The fact that the NYT had its s***y little hands all over it spoils the whole experience and thrill for me, readers.

As the Obama administration scrambles to repair any political damage to the war effort in Congress and among the American public by the WikiLeaks revelations, there are also growing concerns that some US allies abroad may ask whether they can trust America to keep secrets, officials said....

"Pentagon studies possible risks to Afghans from leaked documents" by Eric Schmitt, New York Times | July 29, 2010
WASHINGTON — The Pentagon is reviewing tens of thousands of classified battlefield reports made public this week about the war in Afghanistan to determine whether Afghan informants were identified and could be at risk of reprisals, US officials said yesterday....
A search by The New York Times through a sampling of the documents released by the organization WikiLeaks found reports that gave the names of dozens of Afghans credited with providing credible information to US and NATO troops.
The Times and two other publications given access to the documents — the British newspaper the Guardian and the German magazine Der Spiegel — had posted online only selected examples from documents that had been redacted to eliminate names and other information that could be used to identify people at risk. The news organizations did this to avoid jeopardizing the lives of informants....
National security officials, meanwhile, are worried that the attention WikiLeaks has received in the past week has elevated its profile and could be used to entice disgruntled officials to send classified information to its website, which solicits “classified, censored, or otherwise restricted material of political, diplomatic, or ethical significance’’ and asserts that “submitting confidential material to WikiLeaks is safe, easy, and protected by law.’’
So it IS a CIA/MOSSAD TRAP!!!!
One US official, speaking on the condition of anonymity because of the investigation, said government lawyers were exploring whether WikiLeaks and the founder of WikiLeaks, Julian Assange, could be charged with a crime.
Of course, when you INVADE NATIONS over LIES and KILL MILLIONS it is not a crime and it can continue!
One question, some lawyers said, is whether WikiLeaks and Assange could be charged with inducing or serving as coconspirators in violations of the Espionage Act, which prohibits the unauthorized disclosure of national security information.
Then SHIP HIM OFF to Israel like we do the rest of 'em!
At a press club in London on Tuesday, Assange said that before the most recent disclosure of documents, WikiLeaks had been warned by officials in the US government that there had been “thoughts of whether I could be charged as a coconspirator to espionage, which is serious.’’
“That doesn’t seem to be the thinking within the United States anymore, however,’’ he added.
He did not elaborate.
Mission accomplished, 'eh?
But yesterday, Senator Lindsey Graham, a Republican from South Carolina, said on Fox News that WikiLeaks should be prosecuted for its role, saying, “As far as I know, there’s no immunity for a website to be able to pass on documents’’ that were illegally leaked.
How about the LEAKING of a CIA AGENTS name to discredit a report that didn't back up war lies?
At a Senate Judiciary Committee oversight hearing yesterday, Senator Jon Kyl, an Arizona Republican, pressed FBI Director Robert S. Mueller III to say whether he expected prosecutors to charge “both the individuals who provided the information and those who might have been involved in the dissemination of the information.’’
Mueller demurred, saying that “at this juncture, I can’t say as to where that particular investigation will lead.’’
He has to check with Israel first.
Several legal specialists in matters related to leaks of classified information say that prosecuting Assange or WikiLeaks on charges that they had violated the Espionage Act would face many hurdles, from the diplomatic difficulty in persuading a country to arrest and extradite Assange to an array of legal defenses he could mount if the United States managed to detain him. Assange is an Australian activist who has operated in various European cities.
Susan Buckley, a partner at the law firm Cahill Gordon & Reindel who specializes in communications law, said the Espionage Act had rarely been used, so there were few guides for how such a novel case would play out....But we can hazard a guess.
