I expect you to know however that in fighting for the freedom of all americans, you can not expect citizens to give up their rights just because it is wartime.

I don't. Congress does.

" please dont publish that article because troops will die reason"

I have never said that.
I have said don't publish classified information that is protected by statute.

I do take your point that doing so may and has compromised military operations.

Exposing classified FBI files to the media is against the law. I like that law. I wrote a coupla days ago that Felt had other options that should have explored.

No supporter of this war on this thread and that includes me expected the situation 2-2.5 years down the road to be so fluid and the results so mixed.

Our leaders including W, Rummie and Colin P told us going in that this will be a 25 year war.
Hang on.

I hate to say "I told you so", but I did say at the start of the war, the we in the US better have the fortitude for a generation worth of time and effort.
