As the founder of the whistleblower website WikiLeaks remains underground in fear that the U.S. will detain him, the site is preparing to release a leaked video of a U.S. airstrike in Afghanistan that is said to be more shocking than the Iraqi video that sent its controversial leader into hiding.

Julian Assange, who has been garnering more attention since it was announced that Pentagon investigators are looking for him, told his supporters in an email this week that he has a classified video of a U.S. attack on Afghan civilians.

In an interview airing today on "Brian Ross Investigates," a weekly investigative news magazine show airing on ABC News Now and Hulu.com, a member of the Icelandic Parliament who has worked closely with Assange said the Afghan video is expected to be released shortly.

"Treason of the first order."

Sadly, he's an Aussie living out of the country, and far from our legal grasp. He also operates his servers in one of the Scandinavian countries, so we can't even shut him down that way.

Wherever he is and to whatever country he holds allegiance, he's undeniably a clear and present danger to American intelligence services and our national security.

I knew it! I knew it!

I was just going to post this!!

Anyway, isn’t this the same video that was debunked a while back?

It is severely edited and the original clearly shows those who were killed as armed and enemy combatants.

If it’s like the Iraq video, it will be highly redacted; missing key portions that show the validity of the action.

lies

There, fixed it.

As the enemy refuses to wear uniforms or abide by the laws of war, how can anyone look at a video and claim that this person is a civilian and this person is an enemy? This is especially difficult when the enemy is known to use women and children as shields.

[Southack]

Wikileaks has the State Department cables from Hillary Clinton to various world leaders...but refuses to release them because the exposure would harm Democrats.

[DCPatriot]

So...are human shields fair game?

Who specifically was the target and was the kill confirmed?

Or...was this a case like those tales of Vietnam helicopter gunners that “shot anything that moved”?

[rockvillem]

Amen. Can you imagine how these losers would have covered what the US did in World War 2?

The left allows our enemies to inflict nothing but collateral damage, but god forbid the US or Israel wounds a butterfly.

[Chode]

anybody can make a video... now prove that it's real
