Glenn, the last three articles you've written are concerned with the propaganda that fuels the Military-Industrial-M$M-Congressional Complex. I consider this one of the most important topics of our day.
What kind of country we are depends a lot on how much money we spend on defense. If citizens are to accept our role as World Policeman, we need to understand that it comes at great cost to our domestic population and domestic problems.

I spent around 100 hours or so looking at the first document dump by David Barstow last April. Those heavily redacted documents were quite the education in Military thought and policy. I'm also wondering if McCaffrey may have had inside information about Rumsfelds possible (2006) demise long before he resigned. Could that be why Robert Weiner said "go look at the Google!?"
