"Dear Mr. Keller" - letter to the NYT |
2006-06-25 |
caught via Hugh Hewitt Mr. Keller, What ceases to amaze me about your paper is the lengths you are willing to go to make headlines and sell papers. Who cares if those headlines help the enemies of America, you guys are making money and that is what it is all about in the end right? Your recent decision to publish information about a classified program intended to track the banking transactions of possible terrorists is not only detrimental to America but also to its fighting men and women overseas. I know because I am a sergeant in the army on my second tour to Iraq. As I am sure you don’t know because you aren’t in Iraq, and I am sure never will be, terrorism happens here everyday because there are rich men out there willing to support the everyday terrorist who plants bombs and shoots soldiers just to make a living. Without money terrorism in Iraq would die because there would no longer be supplies for IED’s, no mortars or RPG’s, and no motivation for people to abandon regular work in hopes of striking it rich after killing a soldier. Throughout your article you mention that “ the banking program is a closely held secret” but the cat is out of the bag now isn’t it. Terrorists the world over can now change their practices because of your article. For some reason I think that last sentence will bring you guys pleasure. You have done something great in your own eyes-you think you have hurt the current administration while at the same time encouraging “freedom fighters” resisting the imperialism of the United States. However, I foresee a backlash coming your way. I wish I had a subscription to your paper so I could cancel it as soon as possible. But alas, that would prove a little tough right now since I am in Iraq dealing with terrorists financed by the very men you are helping. Thank you for continually contributing to the deaths of my fellow soldiers. You guys definitely provide a valuable service with your paper. Why without you how would terrorists stay one step ahead of us? I would love to hear a response as to why you deemed revealing this program a necessity, but that will probably come as soon as the government decides to finally put you guys behind bars where you belong.

#4 Good letter, but the NYT could give a sh*t. They hate America and all it stands for, then have the gall to piously attribute their actions to defending it. |

#3 Honestly, seeing Pinch, his minions, and Friends do the perp-walk would bring me greater pleasure than to hear OBL, Zawahiri, and any 10 other lowlife IslamoNazis had been killed or caught. The actions of Pinch and his ilk kill our people everday, day in, day out, without cease. General Sulzberger's Army of Lies has made America, itself, the enemy. (self) Hateful bastard. Good luck and Godspeed to Tim Boggs and his compatriots. Come home to us - and run for public office. |

#2 If this were anytime before 1945...the NYT/LAT would be in prison awaiting execution for treason. |
