Would release of the policies help our enemies by knowing in advance how we will react to attack?

Would release of the policies help our enemies by knowing in advance how we will react to attack?First and foremost he is not releasing the policies, only a "description" of the policies.They will certainly provide an operational if not a tactical advantage to our enemies. Of course this is one more little mess Trump needs to clean up ASAP. A description can be anything you choose it to be. It is not the actual documentation.

The sad irony is that we’re reading this on the 75th anniversary of the Pearl Harbor disaster.

Under Obama, yes, since he’s not likely to change them. Trump may keep some policies in place, but I doubt the entire framework will remain. This is mostly a BS symbolic move that means nothing in the grand scheme, but it allows him another talking point to brag about once he’s gone.
