*off topic* but I have to rant!

I was just watching the news. It really ticks me off how much info the news will give away about military moves!! They just showed a new base that we are building over in Saudi. They even had aerial photo's of it. How many planes it would hold, troops capicty, and even a new type of bomb proof bunker to store planes that is also stealth!!! Not to mention giving locations away of where troop build ups are occuring! Come on, do these guys NOT realize that they are putting american troops lives in danger. The very people that protect their freedom to report the news and they throw us to the wolves!! You would think some CEO would have the damn brains to say "Lets not report this, it could get people killed!" Christ, why not just email Sadaam and Osama and tell them where we are and whats going on! Sometimes I wonder who's side they are on There, I feel better <IMG SRC="http://www.graystarr.com/www2/html/modules/Albums/album04/TroyMuskie2.thumb.jpg">

I totally agree with you, Troy. I was just thinking about that same idea when I heard the news talking about different ways Anthrax could be used to kill people. They described different methods of distribution, and the amount of Anthrax each type would take and how many people each method of distribution could affect. They also mentioned where the few locations that the Anthrax virus was being contained. To me, that's like saying, okay guys, here's where you can get the stuff, and by the way, here's a few ideas of what you can do with it. Cool! I was also amused during the 9/11 incident, by the way the news made sure everyone knew exactly where the President was headed and what time he would be arriving at his destination. Cool! Let's just send a squad of Terrorists there to greet him when he gets off the plane. There are so many cases like the one you mentioned. I think there are some things the media should keep their noses out of, and not disclosing to the public. My boats small, but hey, it gets me on the water!

Yes it's possible that it is propaganda. I would believe more in that theory 15 years ago. But with todays technology and such, I don't think so. Like Bigzee said with giving away the location where the President was going during Sept 11. They just don't know when to shut their mouth I think.<IMG SRC="http://www.graystarr.com/www2/html/modules/Albums/album04/TroyMuskie2.thumb.jpg">
