Well but say in this case they had a handle on these kids .. and wanted to follow them.. figure out what they were up to ..
Which hopefully is what was happening.
Frankly I don't care if they call it terrorism or not - I try to keep my eyes peeled for what I'd suspect. I just don't understand the mindset that everything has to be in the open - because the terrorists are going to do everything they can to keep it as quiet as possible. Even if they have an inkling that they are NOT being watched.. there's a greater possibility that they'll slip up.
What was the term during WWII - "Loose Lips Sink Ships" ?
I agree...it is called disinformation, feed the press what you want them to know....
