US government jams wikileaks after secret document release

I liked that.

Agreed.

Bring on the negs.

the US authorities are afraid of being held to account.

Looks like somebody's got the American government by the balls... Good on him, it's about time the truth was known about Iraq and Afghanistan.

The number is much higher if you include terrorists or other criteria. Ranges from 600,000 to just over 1m depending on your criteria or source since the invasion began in 2003. I'd imagine the 66,000 are only the official recorded number of civilian deaths killed directly by the US army.

lol 600,000 is not the bottom of the range in estimates of deaths since 2003 in Iraq.

This is what I got so far from rumours about the wikileaks:

Arabic Nations demand US attack in Iran

US Diplomats told to spy on the UN

North Korea giving weapons to Iran

Only a matter of time until Iran gets a nuke

Obama couldn't care less for Europe

US Officials insult the German Diplomat by saying "he is thick as sht

Qatar is willing to fund US on invasion in Iran

USA fuming when David Cameron became PM

US congressmen call for wikileaks to be listed as a terrorist group

Here is some of the leaks The Guardian has.

Some of that is very significant, especially the stuff about Iran. I do believe that this could have a significant impact.

Oh yes, North Korea giving weapons to Iran? Qatar willing to fund US to invade Iran? I was pretty surprised when I saw this.

Still waiting for other documents related to UK and Europe to be leaked thought.

Same I keep hearing claims about Cameron and Brown but I cannot find the actual leak.

Are they being released in stages?

Think so but im not sure

Same I keep hearing claims about Cameron and Brown but I cannot find the actual leak.

There's always this thick Brit defending the Americans (even though most Americans themselves are/were against the war) in this case its Aj12.

First of all, who claims that the terrorists are the ones that have killed the biggest numbers? The Ministry of Foreign Affairs?

Personally, I believe you, especially if you read about all these bombings etc.

but

where were these suicide bombings, kidnappings, beheadings before the 2003 invasion? Where were all these Arab 'terrorists'?

By invading Iraq, topling the goverment and the even worse disbanding the police & military they enabled all of these people (Al-Qaeda, Shia militias from iran) to use Iraq as a breeding ground to spread their ideas, and operations.

Lets just compare it to the UK, we've got Muslims, Christians, Athiests, Nazis, Al-Qaeda supporters, pedophiles and all the messes up **** you can think of right? Yet, the country is stable? How come? Let me tell you that if, lets say, Russia would invade England and disband the military and police the exact same **** would happen here, i.e. chavs kidnapping people for money, EDL bombing mosques, Jihadis beheading people and burning churches etc. The only thing that keeps these monsters 'inside' is order, take that away and you've got Iraq 2010,

None of your annoying ranting changes the fact that many civilians were not killed by American troops but by other Muslims. Follow the conflict and for the last year or 2 you start to see that less and less attacks are targeted at American troops but at other Muslims and in some cases Christians.

Read books on the conflict from people who are out in the Iraq and the same pattern immemrges.

Now go do some research and then come back rather than resulting to childish posts like the above that lack any facts substance or even basic maturity

Most are killed by terrorists
