Iraq’s Secret War Files (WikiLeaks Special)
In the biggest official files leak in history nearly 400,000 Iraq war logs reveal the massive scale of civilian deaths and new torture allegations following an investigation by Channel 4’s Dispatches.

Channel 4 News has accessed the data in the classified documents via The Bureau of Investigative Journalism and WikiLeaks but has been unable to independently verify their authenticity.

Please note - I cannot access this in the UK for reasons of copyright. Possibly blocked out because not shown yet on Channel 4 - due out Mondy 30th I believe.

About this Documentary

* The only TV documentary to have advance access to the biggest WikiLeaks release ever.
* Channel 4 is the only UK broadcaster to have been given access to nearly 400,000 secret military significant activities reports (SIGACTS) logged by the US military in Iraq between 2004 and 2009.

8. Kick. I am near done with the 2nd segment (it appears that there are 4).
I had to stop for a moment. The information is extremely depressing and infuriating.
