While sending his minions to Pakistan to offer more American taxpayers’ money, President Barak Obama was aware that the Pakistanis are aiding and abetting terrorists and insurgents fighting and killing American military personnel in Afghanistan. 

Yesterday the Pentagon condemned the actions of the group Wikileaks.org for releasing thousands of classified U.S. military documents on its web site 

“The leaking of classified information is something we take very seriously,” Marine Corps Col. Dave Lapan, a Pentagon spokesman, told reporters yesterday. 

“We are in the process right now of assessing the documents,” Lapan added. 

The documents reportedly given to several members of the U.S. and international media weeks ago, are said to detail field reports on the Pakistan government’s relationships with the Taliban and al-Qaeda. The more than 90,000 documents cover the period from January 2004 through December 2009. 

Some of the leaked documents allege that the Pakistani intelligence service are duplicitous to the point of knowing the location of top al-Qaeda leaders including Osama bin Laden. Also, the documents claim the Pakistani government has used millions of dollars in U.S. aid to help the insurgency in Afghanistan. 

The Pentagon has yet to confirm or deny the validity of these reports, saying it’s still early in the assessment process. 

“This is not America’s war. It’s a regional war, and, in some ways, a global war,” he said. 

Mullen also addressed what he sees as a growing problem in the interconnectedness among terrorist groups. Lashkar-e-Taiba is an example of a group that had limited goals at first – the “liberation” of Muslims in Kashmir – that has morphed into a general purpose terror group with regional and even global aspirations. LeT is affiliated with al-Qaeda and other terror groups, he said.
