"GIVE ME BACK THE DOCUMENT" from Pentagon to Wikileaks

War begins?? In a briefing at the Defense Department, Pentagon Spokesman Geoff Morrell ordered Wikileaks to remove classified documents and return them to the U.S. government. He claim that submitting information to it is safe, easy and protected by the law is "materially false and misleading."

"It was reported on Tuesday that Wikileaks had asked the Department of Defense for help reviewing approximately 15,000 classified documents that it obtained in an inappropriate and illegal manner, before Wikileaks releases those technical documents to the public. Wikileaks has made no such request directly to the Department of Defense.

These technical documents are the property of the U.S. Government and contain classified and sensitive information. The Defense Department demands that Wikileaks return immediately all version of documents obtained ... Wikileaks' public disclosure last week of a large number of our documents has already threatened the safety of our troops, our allies and Afghan citizens...

The only acceptable course is for Wikileaks to return all versions of these technical documents to the U.S. government and permanently delete them from its website, computers and records.

So what do you think? Give it back? Or Not.

Wikileaks: Explosive Leaks Provide Image of War

American soldiers search an Afghan man working for a private security firm

92,000 classified documents pertaining to the war in Afghanistan have been leaked

The war logs expose the true scale of the Western military deployment -- and the problems beleaguering Germany's Bundeswehr in the Hindu Kush.

The White House called the disclosures "alarming."

The material could reinforce the view put forth by the war's opponents in Congress that one of the nation's longest conflicts is hopelessly stalemated.

The war logs reveal civilian killings by coalition forces, secret efforts to eliminate Taliban and al-Qaida leaders, and discuss the involvement of Iran and Pakistan in supporting insurgents.

The Pentagon also was looking at possible damage on the ground in Afghanistan.
