Iraq is ready to sue WIKILEAKS

Wikileaks.com this week made public massive amount of confidential data about Iraq war.

The main revealation is the staggering death count. Wikileaks records more than 289000 deaths,half of which is said to be civilians.

The Pentagon,US government, UK government are totally angered about leaking of this information. But the angriest reaction came from Iraq.


Minister of Human Rights Wijdan Mikhail Salim said Monday. 'It's Iraq's right to sue the site. If there is freedom of expression, there is also the right to reply and the right to claim rights,' Salim has told state-run Al-Iraqiya TV channel.

it seems that they have formed a committee to look in to the accuracy of data in wikileaks.com. The reason behind this motive is that this revelation can be a threat to Iraq Prime Minister Nouri-Al-Maliki's second term prospects.
