The Federalist:

From the "Department of Military Correctness," the Green front is again on the march against our military, trying to turn our fighting forces into friends of the Earth. This time the eco-nuts are suing in San Francisco's U.S. District Court to block testing of the $300 million submarine detection system called the Surveillance Towed Array Sensor System Low Frequency Active sonar, claiming the equipment shakedown will kill dolphins and whales with
its intense underwater noise. A coalition of environmentalist groups led by the Natural Resources Defense Council Wednesday filed the court action against the Navy and the National Marine Fisheries Service. NMFS had granted the Navy a five-year exemption from the Marine Mammal Protection Act -- while restricting the tests to 12 nautical miles offshore. The improved sonar is an important national security matter -- designed to detect the new super-quiet subs already under development by several weapons suppliers to terrorists.
