If/when wikileaks begins to talk then we'll know if it was a legit leak.

The docs listed aren't the full dump, just "proof" that there is more.




Wikileaks is hardly a reliable and impartial third party.


Genuinely curious: have WL released unreliable information in the past?


Their collateral murder video that claimed to show photographers being killed but ignored or edited out the frames showing someone with an RPG and an AK47 in the same group.


This fact is rarely mentioned. Thanks for bringing it up. This editing was not done by Chelsea; she submitted the information as-is. It was indeed WL / Assange who edited the video.


No, the edited video had all the critical details.

And, unlike any other journalists, they released the unedited video as well.


Correct but if it happens it'll likely contain enough data to better verify its origin.
