Whistleblower website WikiLeaks, which has published hundreds of U.S. war logs, is preparing to release secret files from Russia and China, a Russian newspaper said on Tuesday.

"Russians are going to find out a lot of interesting facts about their country," WikiLeaks spokesman Kristinn Hrafnsson told Kommersant.

The main goal of the project was the "despotic regimes in China, Russia and Central Eurasia," WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange wrote to potential investors when he launched the website in 2006.

WikiLeaks published some 400,000 secret U.S. military files revealing the truth about the conflict in Iraq. The documents suggest U.S. forces turned a blind eye to evidence of torture by the Iraqi authorities. Other files reveal that the number of civilian casualties was far greater than Washington admitted.

3. Hope this guy is well hidden and secure because the Russkies will not hesitate to eliminate him

if he reveals any truly damaging information. Mr. KGB Putkin knows how to eradicate any real or imagined "counter-revolutionary" risk to his reign over Mother Russia. Stick your finger in Uncle Sam's eye and he becomes passive-aggressive, do it to the Russian Bear and you end up mauled to death.
