IN THE DARK....

Which is the worst offense?

"IN THE DARK....Larry Franklin, a former Department of Defense analyst, recently pleaded guilty to leaking classified information and was sentenced to 12 years in prison. That's a stiff sentence — and an unusual one — but since Franklin worked for the Pentagon at the time of the leak it's at least easy to understand.

What's harder to understand is the case against Steven Rosen and Keith Weissman, the two former AIPAC lobbyists who received Franklin's leaks."

Mark Denbeaux of Seton Hall University has co-authored a study of 517 reviews written by the government for use at Combatant Status Review Tribunal hearings, and the results of the study mirror the findings of Corine Hegland's recent investigation for National Journal. The full report is here, and as the chart on the right shows, one of the study's findings is that only 11% of the Guantanamo prisoners were captured on the battlefield by coalition forces. A full two-thirds of them were rounded up in Pakistan and turned over to the United States, likely in response to flyers like this distributed by the United States:"

America must be on drugs. I am starting to put much more confidence in those Art Bell stories about "chem. trails", I mean it's that or there is something in the water.
