Another important thing to be noticed is Wikileaks also leaked the Intelligence Report prepared by US Defence against WIKILEAKS!!
Obviously, censor committee of various countries chose to block Wikileaks. Unfortunately, Wikileaks leaked the Censorship prepared against them as well.
Although Wikileaks was a head-ache to many countries, it became popular when it released millions of documents regarding 9/11 and Pentagon mishaps!
Wikileaks claims it has many more documents that it has in its repository, which will be released soon...
