Former Pakistani General: CIA, Mossad behind WikiLeaks Reports
TEHRAN (FNA)- A former Pakistani army commander said that the disclosure of 
classified documents by the whistleblower site of Wikileaks is a US plot to 
create rift among friendly and neighboring states. 

  


"The US has a hand in this plot, and these reports (posted by the WikiLeaks 
website) are part of the US psychological warfare," former Chief of the Staff of 
the Pakistani Army General Mirza Aslam Beg told FNA in Islamabad on Tuesday. 

He stated that the US could prevent the leak of information if it wanted to do 
so, and warned that the real plot and conspiracy pursued by these reports will 
be unraveled in future. 

Aslam Beg further reiterated that the CIA and Israel's spy agency Mossad have 
launched efforts to weaken and destabilize Pakistan, and WikiLeaks reports are 
part of these efforts. 

The remarks by the Pakistani figure came after US embassy cables posted by 
WikiLeaks website sparked hot reactions in the region. 

In one cable, the WikiLeaks claimed, Saudi Arabia's King Abdullah, a close ally 
of Pakistan, reportedly called Pakistani President Asif Ali Zardari the main 
cause of his country's woes. 

Pakistani President's office responded on Monday that the leaks were "no more 
than an attempt to create misperceptions between two important and brotherly 
Muslim countries".
