For those who don't know, Wikileaks is a website (well, currently being ddos'd right now) that published anonymous submissions and leaks of sensitive governmental, corporate, organizational, or religious documents, while attempting to preserve the anonymity and untraceability of its contributors. ...

They released information about Iraqi and Afghanistan and today they released documents that give us a glimpse into USA foreign affairs.


A brief summary:

PAKISTAN: has a reactor using enriched uranium that the US believes could fall into terrorists' hands

KOREA: US and South Korea discussed a unified Korea, and SK has considered commercial inducements to China in order to get it

GUANTANAMO BAY: The US has pressured countries to take prisoners from there (into their own prisons) in return for favors

AFGHANISTAN: The Afghan Vice-President was found with $52million in cash when visiting UAE (implying massive levels of corruption)

CHINA: China really did hack Google in China, and has also hacked western government and corporate PCs

SAUDI ARABIA: Saudi donors still the chief sponsors of Al Qaeda + King Abdullah dislikes Iraqi and Pakistani leaders

RUSSIA: Putin and Berlusconi are bffs to the point that Berlusconi is Russia's mouthpiece in Europe (talk of lavish gifts both ways)

LEBANON: US failed to stop Syria from (secretly and against agreement) supplying arms to Hezbolla which now has a massive stockpile of them

GERMANY: US warned Germany not to arrest CIA officers involved in a bungled kidnapping of German civilian

ISRAEL: Concerns it will strike Iran if Iran continues nuclear development

YEMEN: Took credit on US' request for missile strike on Al Qaeda

LIBYA: Qaddafi has a "Ukrainian nurse" companion that never leaves his side + he reneged on a deal to return uranium to Russia

KOREA: Kim Jong-il has epilepsy.

RUSSIA: US Ambassadors call Putin an "Alpha Male" while Medvedev is called "Afraid, hesitant"

FRANCE: US and French ambassadors discussed Iran, other countries. French are assholes.

ITALY: Berlusconi is basically Putin's bitch (gay couple?)



There is supposed to be a lot more information coming, hope it is going to be more mind blowing then this, much was already known  (well, except for the Italy bit)
