This is a very nice piece of news here, the White House is already freaking out and in true Bushian fashion are decrying the release of the docs as a threat to national security that will cost lives. YAWN.Too true Ed. Apparently it was offered to the NY Times but it was obviously news not fit to print. So it was to the others they went.
We will likely witness the inevitable starting today, a huge public relations campaign to destroy the legitimacy of these documents. Savage attacks on Wikileaks, the scrambling of more shadow government assassination goons to go after Julian Assange, a huge breaking sex scandal or Natalee Holloway update (hell this one is so big that they may even float the arrest of the Jon Benet Ramsey killer) or phony video from a scumbag like Breitbart that will knock it off of the front pages altogether.
The war in Afghanistan is a lost cause, unless of course you are a drug lord or a large investment bank that launders the money from drug profits or a black ops commander who takes a cut or an arms merchant or one of those thousands of money-gobbling post 9/11 private spy shops that was in the last story that immediately went down the memory hole, Top Secret America.
The Afghanistan war is a lie based on the biggest lie of all which is what really happened on September 11, 2001 and why.
I would be wary of this week being the week that the joint US-Israel forces launch the attack on Iran. Cornered animals are the most dangerous and this may be the time to double down.
At least The Guardian and Der Spiegel got the scoop too, while we here in Der Heimat dream away, wrapped snugly in star spangled cocoons of mass ignorance and apathy the remainder of the civilized world knows the truth.
Just my two cents

Edit: It seems the NY Time have covered the story but the Guardian has the whole of the logs available.
