FBI and military investigating source of leaked Afghan war documents 29 Jul 2010 The FBI and the Justice Department are working with the military to investigate the source of the leak of tens of thousands of classified military documents on the Afghan war to WikiLeaks.org, U.S. officials said Wednesday. WikiLeaks, an anti-secrecy group, posted all but 15,000 documents of what it is calling "The Afghan War Diary" on Sunday. WikiLeaks has declined to name its source, but the probe initially is focused on Army Pfc. Bradley E. Manning, a Pentagon spokesman said, and may include others who have helped him.
