Freedom is Important because People are Important

Hello,

I initially felt sorry for these gents, who probably didn't share any particularly sensitive information. As security leaks go, this was barely a drip.

On the other hand, it occurred to me that the military took a precious asset and discarded it. In the process, they likely enabled these men to become security consultants for quadruple (or more) of their present pay.

So I do not feel sorry for them any more.

Goodbye, kind world (George Monbiot) - In common with all those generations which have contemplated catastrophe, we appear to be incapable of understanding what confronts us.


Interesting train of thought.

It's important that military secrets be revealed only by the White House and the ONLY for political gain.

Hello,

That does seem to be a running theme with our government.

Not just military secrets. Ask Valerie Plame!
