Not one, but two war whistleblowers are expected to speak at a London press club tonight to tell their stories, according to the Frontline Club's website. Wikileaks founder Julian Assange, who recently released 400,000 Iraq war logs on the Internet, and Pentagon Papers whistleblower Daniel Ellsberg, who leaked the papers in 1971, will speak in an forum open to the public at club. Elizabeth Palmer, CBS News correspondent, will chair the event. Assange has been under fire for releasing classified documents on the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. Ellsberg released top-secret defense documents about the Vietnam War.
