#1 If I were this guy, I'd be more worried about the terrorists than anything else. Obviously, the man sang a pretty song. Whassat? Did you hear that? Hey Yee, just cause you are paranoid......

#2 I feel for the Army investigators. This is a lot like the Wen Ho Lee case - if money doesn't change hands, or the plaintiff hasn't been photographed sleeping with a known enemy operative, it's hard to prove espionage. As a Muslim, he hangs out with Muslims as a matter of course. Is he dirty? Not being an investigator, I'm not in a position to judge. But the lack of evidence acceptable in a courtroom doesn't mean he's innocent.

#3 There is a very good article over at Reason on this issue. From the information provided in their account it looks like the Army screwed up big time and doesn't want to admit it. I am a veteran and don't lightly disparrage the military but it does look like they really bungled this one.

#4 Deacon, I know they (the left) really want to paint the Army as bumbling fools, but more likely they let Capt Yee off to get bigger fish. As a matter of practice most US Military personnel DON'T travel back-and-forth between Egypt and Syria with classified information on them. If Capt Yee was TOTALLY clean, you can bet that CAIR and their ilk would be all over this case. This case had EVERY indication that Capt Yee cut a deal to get off. We probably won't know the full details beause the Egyptians rarely tell the U.S. press when they whack Islamists (but they do).

#5 Will this guy be smart and resign?

Probably not, but stick a fork in his career and call it done.

#6 I'll bet Mrs. Yee is pretty pissed. He'll wish he were in Leavenworth by this time next week.
