Data on U.S. Military's Iraqi Operations Leaked onto Internet

Via Breitbart News.

Internal data such as information concerning U.S. military operations in Iraq have recently been leaked to the Internet from a privately owned personal computer of an Air Self-Defense Force member loaded with a file sharing software, ASDF investigations have shown.
