RWB News: I will not be distracted by some Anti-American crack pot that hates America so much he releases Top Secret information that puts many innocent lives in danger. We as Americans need to worry more about Nov 2nd than 400,000 documents that the Media will pick and choose from. We can only hope this distraction does not make Americans lose focus on the "Change" that is coming Nov 2nd .
The "October Surprise" as my friend Mark Levin called it. The timing of these Leaks is very suspect if you really think about it…..Who knows with all the dirty stunts the Democrats are pulling? Three weeks before election and the Democrats seem to be in a bad spot when it comes to NOV 2nd. This will give the Democrats the opening they have been waiting for to dust off their old and worn out "Bush" talking points. " Bush" "Iraq" "Cheney" "Torture" "Cover Ups" will be talked about more than the horrible economy we have after the Dems played every card they had to fix it. You also will not hear about the job losses, the deficit, the budget, home foreclosures, healthcare and any other "accomplishment" the Dems couldn't get the American people to "understand"…….Mark my word……"But But But Bush" is coming back
The whistle-blowing website WikiLeaks today released a trove of classified reports about the war in Iraq that it said documented at least 109,000 deaths in the war, a higher number than the United States previously has acknowledged, as well as what it described as cases of torture and other abuses by Iraqi and coalition forces.
"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)," WikiLeaks said in a statement regarding the documents' release. "The majority of the deaths (66,000, over 60 percent) of these are civilian deaths. That is 31 civilians dying every day during the six-year period."
When including military deaths of Iraqi security personnel or individuals the United States identified as insurgent targets "almost 50 Iraqis died on average in every single day reported by the logs," according to WikiLeaks.
The U.S. military long has maintained that it does not keep an official death tally, but earlier this month following a Freedom of Information Act request, the Pentagon said some 77,000 Iraqis had been killed from 2004 to 2008.
