I have just received word that the New York Times is preparing to go public with a list of names of Americans covertly working in Afghanistan providing force protection for our troops, as well as the rest of our Coalition Forces. If the Times actually sees this through, the red ink they are drowning in will be nothing compared to the blood their entire organization will be covered with. Make no mistake, the Times is about to cause casualty rates in Afghanistan to skyrocket. Each and every American should be outraged.
As chronicled here, here, here, and here the Central Intelligence Agency via the New York Times has been waging a nasty proxy war against the Department of Defense over its use of former military and intelligence personnel to do what the CIA is both incapable and unwilling to do: gather the much needed intelligence that keeps our troops safe.
According to Washington Post columnist, David Ignatius, “[T]he U.S. military has long been unhappy about the quality of CIA intelligence in Afghanistan,” and the senior military intelligence officer in Afghanistan, Maj Gen Michael T. Flynn went so far as to publish a stunning report calling for “sweeping changes to the way the intelligence community thinks about itself.”
The report goes on to quote General Stanley McChrystal, who stated that “our senior leaders – the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the Secretary of Defense, Congress, the President of the United States – are not getting the right information to make decisions with … The media is driving the issues.”
Through its use of the New York Times, the Central Intelligence Agency has tried to embarrass the Defense Department into shutting down what, by all accounts, has been an amazingly successful program, which has dramatically saved American and Coalition lives and continues to do so on a daily basis.

Treason. Plain and simple.
Yeah, I know that the Slimes does this pretty much every day, but this one's a special, home-run-swing-kind of stupid. I found it on Drudge.

Face it the NYTimes is an enemy combatant

CIA is kind of notorious for using leaks to NYT and other organs, plus some other little cutesie tricks, to play its own political game, with the objective being its own bureaucratic triumph over rivals and (Usually Conservative) administrations as opposed to anything that actually has to do with its charter. Department of State plays the same game with an even heavier pro-Liberal bias.

WTF!?!?! Seriously!?!?! I hope their paper loses every single subscriber and the owners are left with a multimillion dollar debt for this shit. :bird:

They already have multi-million dollar debt. Printing this is not illegal, the SCOTUS ruled that government documents and secrets are fair game even if they were gained by theft! That was around 1982 or 3 I think.
The paper is dying like all the rest anyways. Let them have their last gasp at what they consider "greatness".

SOP for the NYT. Remember when?
The Pentagon Papers, officially titled United States–Vietnam Relations, 1945–1967: A Study Prepared by the Department of Defense, was a top-secret United States Department of Defense history of the United States' political-military involvement in Vietnam from 1945 to 1967. Commissioned by United States Secretary of Defense Robert S. McNamara in 1967, the study was completed in 1968. The papers were first brought to the attention of the public on the front page of the New York Times in 1971.[1]

I am not interested in the names of covert agents. Case closed.

The enemy on the other hand is very interested in this sort of information.

We are just hand delivering people into the enemies hands great

Wonderful. Just freaking wonderful! Just what I need to hear right before going over there.

What do they care it is not like they care anymore when a soldier dies it seems to be swept under the rug but when Bush was in office they couldn't say it quick enough
-
So I'm guessing Code Pink is going to be coming after Pinch Sulzberger and the rest of the Editorial staff for divulging the names of covert operatives?
Yeah, I'm not holding my breath either.

Hi,
GANG YOU ARE MISSING THE POINT BIG TIME.
The problem is not the New York Times, which is a publication I personally detest. The problem is the democrat party. During the Bush administration the libs were so hell-bent on destroying Bush they encouraged the CIA to leak information to the paper to embarrass the president and his administration.
The NYT is not the one that should be prosecuted for treason, the person, or people from the CIA who leak the information should be tried and shot! At the same time the person from the NYT who received the information should be put under oath and sent to prison if they do not divulge their sources.
To me the real issue is there has never been a serious inquiry into the CIA leaks, Bush tried to do so but got no support from congress. Until the democrats get behind a true probe, nothing is going to change.
Let some CIA official live in fear of being tried for treason and shot before a firing squad and the problem would be solved. The NYT is nothing more than a conduit for the libs and commies in the democrat party.
Stop the leaks and you solve the problem. If the NYT goes bankrupt then the Huffington Post will print that crap. Would not surprise me in the least if the leaks came from some congressional staff members, not the CIA.
