The Wikileaks publication of classified military information...



...is espionage. To the extent that American citizens are implicated in it, it is treason.

It is at least as great a scandal as anything the leaks have revealed about American policy, and those responsible need to be held accountable before the law.

There is no justification, journalistic or otherwise, for putting the lives of American or allied personnel in danger by revealing classified information. None.

No scoop is worth that. The espionage laws need to be applied here. And where there is involvement by American citizens, if they aren't "adhering to (the United States') enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort" by helping to reveal classified information to the enemy in time of war, Bill Clinton is a Benedictine monk.
