Tops on the nuclear hit list are China, Russia, Iraq, North Korea, Iran, Libya and Syria, according to a classified Pentagon report obtained by the Los Angeles Times.

Alright, who's going to jail for releasing classified info?

It's old cold war news with a flashy new headline. My first vote's on someone simply dredging it up for use in an upcoming attempt at a peace rally. Since we know we have plans for these things anyway, you know no one would doubt the info. My second vote goes for Daschle since he was recently bopping around claiming he wasn't told anything. He can now look like he has an alibi- "I see nothing! How could I release it if I didn't know?" And my third votes on the administration to scare the fewmets out of someone in the hopes they will settle for a more or less peaceful solution. Of course the last is risky... the French will be very displeased and the UK Guardian will implode. ; )

I'll bet you five bucks that the "leak" was done on purpose.

There's little point in having a nuclear deterrent if the people you're trying to keep in line don't know how ready you are to use it.

This leak was good strategy.

Exactly. The Los Angeles Times should have its assets frozen for printing classified documents. It gives aid and comfort to our enemies to know they have people on this inside.
