“I think restricting information flow in a war zone so that no enemy propaganda gets airtime should be an essential part of our strategic policy; if that means killing journalists (covertly) who try to sneak in the zone or give aid to the enemy by spouting their propaganda, so be it.”
By that standard, several people at CNN should have been stood in front of the FIRING SQUAD after the Gulf War started.
CNN openly ADMITTED that they were shilling for Sadam, to “Protect our assets in Iraq” under Saddam, remember?
Yep, although I was thinking specifically about Viet Nam; we lost the war because of permitting the enemy free reign at the strategic level, while winning the tactical war. Stupid.
