SIGACT: Contraction of SIGnificant ACTion – military report of field operations.
The main Wikileaks webpage reports the release. However, the links to ‘Diary Dig’ and ‘War Logs’ often give an “Overload” Message. ‘War Logs’ recommends creating a login account, but it seems to be unable to process my request at the moment. The Twitter Feed, however, is working. |
A Creative Commons licensed analyis of the logs appears at Iraq War Logs.
As with the 90,000+ documents about U.S. military operations in Afghanistan released in July, Wikileaks gave advance access to the documents to The New York Times, the German magazine Der Spiegel, and the british newspaper The Guardian. The French newspaper Le Monde, Swedish Television, and Al Jazeera have coverage.
Harvard’s Nieman Foundation has a look at the War Against Wikileaks resulting from the Afghan documents. They have links to pieces of the story with the most complete account from Nadim Kobeissi
