The Defense Department is attempting to buy the entire first printing - 10,000 copies - of a memoir by a controversial former Defense Intelligence Agency officer so that the book can be destroyed, according to military and other sources.
"Operation Dark Heart," which was scheduled to be published this month by St. Martin's Press, recounts the adventures and frustrations of an Army reservist, Lt. Col. Anthony Shaffer, who served in Afghanistan in 2003, a moment when the attention of Washington and the military had shifted to Iraq.

Well, we can all sit back and before long some stick bundler will post the entire book on their blog and then excerpt it on FR claiming it is their own work.
Just wait.
Well now, it was OK to leak all kinds of CIA, DIA, and other sensitive stuff during the Bush years and yet this “Able Danger” saga continues despite all of the efforts to bury it (along with the latest stargate they found./sarc). This operation did the main bulk of its work during the time of Clinton but we can’t just seem to see it now? Where is the creep from WikiLeaks?
Sensenbrenner virtually ended his career and position of seniority on trying to bring to light the details of this one operation. He knows the details and now all of a sudden he is holding his tongue? Geez the relevations must be incredibly damaging to Bubba and the Hildebeast.
We need to get a copy to Beck somehow. If he reads it, 10,000 printing won’t even make the first 30 seconds of sales.
I want a copy!
I also want all the source code of ABLE DANGER!
I have two orders in; overstock and ebay.
Cool! Let us know when the books come in. It has to be something rather embarrassing if the Pentagon is now told to buy the books after esstentially approving them while Bush was in office. Things that make you go hmmm.......
It’s odd how irony has a great sense of timing
The author was just on FOX. He said he couldn’t talk about the book?
Will do.
Listings on ebay are gone almost immediately.
“He said he couldn’t talk about the book?”
I saw that!
There are two copies on eBay now. Bids on one have run up to $300 with two days to go. Three copies have already sold for $200-300.
I hate to admit it, but today is the first I’ve heard of this. If you have a ping list, would you please add me?
