Saul Alinsky's Rules for Radicals #8:
“Keep the pressure on. Never let up.”
Keep trying new things to keep the opposition off balance.
As the opposition masters one approach, hit them from the flank with something new.
How could you write an espionage novel without an evil twin?
Vindman should have received a Trial by General Court-martial.
You were aware of personnel and effectiveness on a battlefield situation in real time?
Regardless of branch of service?
and yes I was TS at 21 years old but never had HQ type clearance on theatre operations.
That would be ridiculous.
If this is the best we can do, it's no wonder America is going down by the bow.
It was the Cold War, not just a battlefield. We had access to everything in clear text switched through a critical AUTODIN with a few hundred secure circuits and could tap into them anytime under the auspices of troubleshooting. No record keeping of who accessed what circuit or printed a copy of whatever on the teletype. I saw plenty doing that legitimately. The only record keeping was key maintenance and destruction. Someone who had gone bad could do a lot of damage and if it didn’t involve keymat would have been nearly impossible to catch them.
You sound as if you were an operator. Those guys had no idea what we crypto people had access to and they would assume that about our access—it was ridiculous.
We actually had a Zeeper here defending the likes of Vindmen. Maybe he will be along soon to tell us what a great guy Vindman is and what a bad guy the 21 year old leaker is.
Yep, they love him. The guy looks like a rodent and is a dirty rodent.
Third world banana republics always have two standards or more...it’s one of the things that defines a banana republic.
