I say 'allegedly' because of the documents not stating facts, but opinion. The thing is, it IS a fact and this has been common knowledge if you've been following the Indo-Paki-Taliban conflict/s for the last few years.
Here's a snippet of an article written April, 2009.
"The Pakistani Army and ISI’s relationship with the Taliban, both as enemy and a strategic asset, provides a deep insight into Pakistan’s convoluted and self-destructive priorities."

The release of the documents really is an interesting insight into world politics if you choose to look at it without biased blinkers on. World politics is complicated and sometimes you have to jump in the sack with the devil for the greater good. This is why many documents are labelled 'top secret' and are not for general consumption. Wikileaks did something SO potentially disastrous that I shudder just thinking about it.
What do you think about Wikileak's release of the information and are you surprised by the knowledge gained from it?.
