I see what you're saying but this isn't a story on Watergate, it's exposing information that shouldn't be exposed. Look at it this way... The MSM has its loose-lipped sources all over the damn place such as the CIA, FBI, etc. If they all know what's going on before we do then they'll recognize the next Watergate and then publish it.

Well, look at it this way, if the media could get ahold of a story like this, don't you think terror groups already knew. The terror groups have infinatly more money/people to find things like this out.

al quaeda (sp?) has a "CIA" too you know?

This doesn't make too much sense. Why take the chance? I’ll tell you who didn’t - a bunch of black muslims that claimed to be apart of al Qaeda that were plotting something as big as 9/11. And no, I don't believe terrorists have nearly as many sources as the MSM. Hell, the military, CIA, and FBI combined probably don't either...

Where do you want me to send the invoice for my time spent for reading this garbage?

I suggest you go back to poly sci class and talk about your feelings more.

Ok... Well I still stand by my position that terror groups have insane amounts of money, how else could you wage a war like they are?

Beyond all that, I DO NOT want my government telling ME or the MEDIA what we can/cannot report/say. I will resist any and all attempts to stifle that basic right.

The government isn't and that’s the entire point! It's the small line in the sand on if you should post a story based on your cache of information and sources when it’ll undoubtedly do more harm than good. Just because the public has the right to know doesn't mean it should... It’s ridiculous to think otherwise. The same can be said for every facet of restraint and self control. Does a first date unleash wicked (both smelly and loud) farts at the dining table? Probably not…

A. They arent waging a war in the classical sense. They are engaged in a low resource low intensity HIGH IMPACT war.

B. It doesnt take that much money to do what they do, esp in the areas they do it.

C. I agree with you on that last part. But there is a line there somewhere. When it endangers our ability to protect ourselves (and i mean really endanger, not some bull**** that politicans put up to vilify the media for their own ends) then that is a problem. As of yet i havent seen any of the recent stories endangering anyone. This is "no brainer" type of **** getting released (note the word i used). Anyone with a minor involvement in technology should be able to figure out that this **** has been going on for a long time. For gods sakes its their mother****ing job to spy on ****. If they werent doing that **** (and more) id be pretty damn bent about it.
