Breaking – Proven reliable sources tell me that in tomorrow morning's edition of the NYT, the leftist paper will reveal that DOD has embedded military rapid reaction teams at a number of US embassies abroad.
The Times is again giving our enemies hard intel they need to be more effective on the worldwide terrorism battlefield.
The concept was very simple; When we got intel that known terrs were operating in a specific area, the US team already in place would be able to snatch them quickly. Because the team is already there, entry problems would be eliminated and reaction time would be much faster. Terrs know how long it takes to get a Delta/SEAL/Snakeeater team out of US or forward area bases and into operational areas, so they know how long they can stay in an area themselves.
Under the new "pre-placement" plan, the reaction time was reduced from days to minutes.
I don't have full details yet, but sources believe not all countries where "pre-placed" teams are located knew they were there. In fact, majority of countries probably did not know small teams of our troops were ready to operate on their ground. Is assumed there were there under civilian cover or perhaps listed as part of the USMC security detachment.
The idea was simple. The snatches would be quick and quiet. Terrs would be removed to other country, possibly Guantanimo, often using business jets borrowed from legitimate US companies, and no one would ever know how or why they disappeared.
Now, thanks to NYT, all is blown!

Senior Pentagon officials and military officers say the effort is part of Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld's two-year drive to give the military a more active intelligence role in the campaign against terrorism. But it has drawn opposition from traditional intelligence agencies like... |

Re #44 -
"...They know the hammer is going to come down on them."
Like; riiiiight.
Sounds like they are awfully intimidated, wouldn't you say?
I wonder what they've "got" on someone very highly placed that protects them from the consequences of their treason?
'Cause the Bush WH seems a lot more intimidated by the NY Slimes than the NY Slimes is intimidated by the US Government.
Don't you ever wonder why?
I know .. and with help from Americans
I'm hoping for vigilante action, myself, or better yet, that they should tick off the Muslims somehow and end up with a beheaditorial staff.
It's the gag that keeps on giving.
sniff sniff
Hey now the NYT is just doing their part for the war. Of course they are on the other side but what the hell?
They are starting to go after them.
See article reference in my post 77:

The DOJ actually IS doing something about the leaks, but the big wheel of government grinds mighty slowly.
You're living in a dream world, if you think that our leaders have ALWAYS been "trusted and that President Bush can't be.
Face it, CR, this is now a one party system. What difference does it make? I've watched my party lean further and further to the left, until they are about to fall over the cliff into suicidal socialism. It's just taking them a tad longer than it would the Dems. Why should I fund that?
This should bump Bush's poll numbers up about 10 points.
