Wikileaks Afghanistan War Diary


It seems that Wikileaks has posted a massive (1.4 GB, 10x larger than all the other files on the page combined) heavily encrypted file on it's dedicated "Afghan War Diary" page labeled simply "Insurance". (See link above)

Possibly in response to the harsh rhetoric issuing from the US DoD regarding Wikileak's founder, Julian Assange (including the rumored price on his head), sometime last Sunday afternoon the new file was quietly uploaded with no explanation.

is reporting the Pentagon has a manhunt currently underway for Wikileaks' founder Julian Assange.

    Investigators from the Pentagon are flocking out and "are desperately searching" for the white-haired sage of openness and accountability. The US is apparently convinced that whistleblower Bradley Manning, who was arrested two weeks ago, did indeed hand over 260,000 US diplomatic cables concerning the Middle East over to Wikileaks....

    The US intelligence apparatus is currently trying to figure out how to come to terms with Wikileaks. A counterintelligence report called the site "a potential force protection, counterintelligence, operational security (OPSEC, and information security(INFOSEC) threat to the US Army". It recommended “the identification, exposure, termination of employment, criminal prosecution, legal action against current or former insiders, leakers, or whistleblowers could potentially damage or destroy this centre of gravity and deter others considering similar actions from using the Wikileaks.org web site".

It would be very interesting to see what is in that file, if anything of course, but I do hope there is something damning enough that war crime investigations are launched.
