WikiLeaks will expose Iraq War documents

WikiLeaks will soon publish 400,000 secret documents related to the Iraq War. CNN reports that according to a source close to WikiLeaks, the material covers the period from 2004 through 2009.

WikiLeaks leaked Afghan War documents in a similar manner in July, but the number of documents published this time around could surpass the amount published during the summer.

The Pentagon, which was not happy about the leak of the Afghan documents, is reportedly prepared for WikiLeaks this time. Col. Dave Lapan says a team of 120 experts has been assembled, who are poised to immediately begin reading any documents on the WikiLeaks site.

"We don't know how these documents might be released, when these documents might be released, in what number they might be released. So we're sort of preparing for all eventualities," Lapan said.
