Sorry I didn't post this sooner. This is the section of the excerpted article that deals with a certain Mr. Arkin.... I recommend we discipline Mr. Arkin BIG TIME if any damaging information was leaked that has a detrimental impact on ongoing operations. If it is proven that SF and other operatives lose their lives because of Mr. Arkin, I would be in favor of treason proceedings and the approprate applicable punishments as allowed by all applicable laws that are on the books.

He has no current security clearance to update (or pull) thank GOD. It's the leak at the Pentagon I'm concerned about.

fyi..

"It's the leak at the Pentagon I'm concerned about"

Me too! And the following statement bothers me as well:

"The official said Mr. Arkin was linked to a senior Pentagon official but that the Office of the Secretary of Defense protected the official." Is this the person who was allowed to resign instead of face being questioned ..?? as was stated later in the article ..??

Go read this...

From my link..

Mr. Arkin, in the online supplement to his book ( www.codenames.org/documents.html ), says the contingency plan, called JCS Conplan 0300-97, calls for "special-mission units in extra-legal missions to combat terrorism in the United States" based on top-secret orders that are managed by the military's Joint Staff and coordinated with the military's Special Operations Command and Northern Command, which is the lead military headquarters for domestic defense.

Mr. Arkin provided The New York Times with briefing slides prepared by the Northern Command, detailing the plan and outlining the military's preparations for the inauguration.

This is worse than we thought..

"Life imitates art. This week, former military intelligence analyst William Arkin revealed a hitherto unknown directive, with the Orwellian name "JCS Conplan 0300-97," authorizing the Pentagon to employ special, ultra-secret "anti-terrorist" military units on American soil for what the author claims are "extra-legal missions."

"BURIED DEEP IN ONE of its Sunday issues late last October, the Los Angeles Times published a story by military analyst William Arkin about a slew of secret armies the Pentagon had been creating around the world. One such force caught the eye of Moscow Times columnist and regular CounterPunch contributor Chris Floyd, who picked up on the tip and ran with it. "According to a classified document prepared for Rumsfeld by his Defense Science Board, the new organization --the 'Proactive, Preemptive Operations Group (dubbed the 'Pee-Twos')'--will carry out secret missions designed to 'stimulate reactions' among terrorist groups, provoking them into committing violent acts which would then expose them to 'counterattack' by U.S. forces," Floyd wrote."

Since Mr. Arkin isn't in the military, I'm not sure what you mean about the need to "discipline" him. In fact, I don't think it's illegal for a journalist to disclose classified information. (There are some arguments, pro and con, about whether this kind of law would be a good idea.)

"To do so you get misleading answers," was their reponse. William Arkin, a gay activist said that this kind of survey polarizes the community. His fear was that the movement for cityhood could turn into a hate campaign between gay and straight." http://www.snorko.org/cyberwrite/eng103/students/edm.html

Well .. there is a way to stop this - make one of these "leakers" AN EXAMPLE OF TREASON. It won't stop unless people know there is a terrible price to pay.

Ever since WWII, it seems that the number one common link of traitors from the UK to America is the homosexual link.

[SierraWasp]

"...the homosexual link."

Why do you spose that is? Do you spose anybody really gives a spit?

[Grampa Dave]

Most of them hate their parents, their families have no children to protect, and they end up hating America and blaming America for their life styles.

[SierraWasp]

Plus the silly savages got teased so much it just hurt their feelers!!! Forever!!! Plus all that "dodgeball," or as my boys called it: "Smear the Queer!" (well that's better than "Tetherball!" That's way too kinky!!!)

What's with 3 stars retiring to avoid questioning? Could I ever get off so easy? Not that I would ever have needed to get off. I thought we were to take this security stuff seriously. What do I know?!

The retiring 3 stars are the leak. How does a General find it, in his great discernment, acceptable to reveal secrets to anyone outside the need to know? High rankers should be held to the highest standards. Some Spec 4 would be making gravel from boulders for much less than this.

As your tag line implies, we must stand by the Truth. Let's see where this goes.
