Anti-patriots "Yet again, the New York Times was presented with a simple choice: help protect American national security or help al Qaeda," Andrew C. McCarthy writes at National Review Online (www.nationalreview.com). "Yet again, it sided with al Qaeda," Mr. McCarthy said. "Once again, members of the American intelligence community had a simple choice: remain faithful to their oath -- the solemn promise the nation requires before entrusting them with the secrets on which our safety depends -- or violate that oath and place themselves and their subjective notions of propriety above the law. "Once again, honor was cast aside. "For the second time in seven months, the Times has exposed classified information about a program aimed at protecting the American people against a repeat of the September 11 attacks. On this occasion, it has company in the effort: The Los Angeles Times runs a similar, sensational story. Together, the newspapers disclose the fact that the United States has covertly developed a capability to monitor the nerve center of the international financial network in order to track the movement of funds between terrorists and their facilitators. "The effort, which the government calls the 'Terrorist Finance Tracking Program' (TFTP), is entirely legal. There are no conceivable constitutional violations involved. ... "Appealing to the patriotism of these newspapers proved about as promising as appealing to the humanity of the terrorists they so insouciantly edify -- the same monsters who, as we saw again only a few days ago with the torture-murder of two American soldiers, continue to define depravity down."
