Wikileaks began on Sunday November 28th publishing 251,287 leaked United States embassy cables, the largest set of confidential documents ever to be released into the public domain. The documents will give people around the world an unprecedented insight into US Government foreign activities.
The cables, which date from 1966 up until the end of February this year, contain confidential communications between 274 embassies in countries throughout the world and the State Department in Washington DC. 15,652 of the cables are classified Secret.
The embassy cables will be released in stages over the next few months. The subject matter of these cables is of such importance, and the geographical spread so broad, that to do otherwise would not do this material justice.
The cables show the extent of US spying on its allies and the UN; turning a blind eye to corruption and human rights abuse in "client states"; backroom deals with supposedly neutral countries; lobbying for US corporations; and the measures US diplomats take to advance those who have access to them.
This document release reveals the contradictions between the US’s public persona and what it says behind closed doors – and shows that if citizens in a democracy want their governments to reflect their wishes, they should ask to see what’s going on behind the scenes.
Every American schoolchild is taught that George Washington – the country’s first President – could not tell a lie. If the administrations of his successors lived up to the same principle, today’s document flood would be a mere embarrassment. Instead, the US Government has been warning governments -- even the most corrupt -- around the world about the coming leaks and is bracing itself for the exposures... http://cablegate.wikileaks.org/

At 5pm EST Friday 22nd October 2010 WikiLeaks released the largest
classified military leak in history. The 391,832 reports ('The Iraq War
Logs'), document the war and occupation in Iraq, from 1st January
2004 to 31st December 2009 (except for the months of May 2004
and March 2009) as told by soldiers in the United States Army.
Each is a 'SIGACT' or Significant Action in the war. They detail events as
seen and heard by the US military troops on the ground in Iraq and
are the first real glimpse into the secret history of the war that the
United States government has been privy to throughout.
The reports detail 109,032 deaths in Iraq, comprised of 66,081
'civilians'; 23,984 'enemy' (those labeled as insurgents); 15,196 'host
nation' (Iraqi government forces) and 3,771 'friendly' (coalition forces).
The majority of the deaths (66,000, over 60%) of these are civilian
deaths.
That is 31 civilians dying every day during the six year period.
For comparison, the 'Afghan War Diaries', previously released by
WikiLeaks, covering the same period, detail the deaths of some
20,000 people. Iraq during the same period, was five times as lethal
with equivalent population size.
