Everybody,
To prevent myself from bending a perfectly good thread on Wedtech, I am migrating it to FRIAM and putting my own spin on it. My mind is a fact-free zone on this issue, but here is my believed-in-imagining concerning how AP got the story. Somebody at CIA was enormously proud of what "his team" had accomplished and could not bear the idea that that such achievements would never be known. "What's the harm?"he thought. The whole operation is over!" But, of course, the harm was potentially enormous. (I assume you don't need me to spell that out.) Now, stipulating ...STIPULATING .. That these facts are as I have imagined them, would you all agree that that person is dangerous and needs to be relieved of his/her duties . at least until s/he can be retrained? And having agreed to that, what powers would you grant to the Government in their search for whoever that person is. Just asking.
