IMO - the report was tainted to spread taint over the few pieces of truth that were in the report. Who was in on it - Don’t know.

The MIS-information campaign is going into high gear. You can actually feel the heat.

The media's down-playing or lack of coverage of today's biggest news story means to me...
We FReepers need to get our acts in gear and right now yesterday!

Yep. I’ve been collecting news stories going back to 2011 when our weapons from Libya started turning up across the Arab world.

Also, the New York Times, in its refutation, never named a single official as it source— only anonymous insiders and officials. By the way, where is the guy that she interviewed, and was he her only source?
