1. Astonishing, damning speech given by head of Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction (oversight committee on war) @SIGARHQ on efforts by @StateDept and @DeptofDefense to classify vital info on #Afghanwar since the fall of Kabul in Aug.... thread summary 👇
2. "..shortly after the fall of #Kabul, the State Dept wrote to me and other oversight agencies requesting to “temporarily suspend access” to all “audit, inspection, and financial audit...reports” on our website..." They claimed info on reports could endanger Afghan allies...
3. "But despite repeated requests, State was never able to describe any specific threats to individuals supposedly contained in our reports, nor did State explain how removing reports could possibly protect anyone since many were yrs old and extensively disseminated worldwide."

1. as the #Afghanistan catastrophe unfolds before our eyes,let's keep in mind that the @WikiLeaks' #AfghanWarLogs remain the ONLY PUBLIC database which allows to reconstruct the #AfghanWar from January 2004 to December 2009.
2. the #WikiLeaks' #AfghanWarLogs not only allow to reconstruct the "visible" part of the #AfghanWar, but also the secret one, by revealing the operations conducted by #drones and secret units such as #TaskForce373
3. in particular, the #WikiLeaks'#AfghanWarLogs is the ONLY database available for trying to reconstruct the civilians deaths before 2007: apparently, NO one has reliable statistics on those deaths

#DonaldTrump (@realDonaldTrump )is the probably one of the rarest American presidents who hasnt started a war like his predecessors like Obama, Bush or Clinton. Instead he has hearlded a new era in thw Middle East brokering peace between #Israel & #UAE and #Bahrain.
Initiating a dialogue with #KimJongUn of North Korea. To give credit his clarity of #ForeignPolicy has been umatched as he goes after #China something which is broadly supported in #India #Japan #Taiwan #Australia & #Vietnam.
Last but not the least he has even initiated peace talks with #Taliban to end the #AfghanWar !!
