what Ever Happened To The Golden Age Of Spying???

Ok, so I am sooooo under-impressed these days with the overall collapse of the so called 'intelligence community' - both the traditional one some of us worked for, and the new and improved party apparachniki fan club based versions, some of which were stove piping for Dick on the american tax payer's dollar.

A former US Navy sailor accused of leaking classified information about a US battle group pleaded not guilty Wednesday to charges of providing material support for terrorists.

Abujihaad was stationed in the Middle East aboard the USS Benfold, a guided-missile destroyer in the battle group, and allegedly provided details of its movements as it headed for the Gulf in early 2001.

Hum.....

It will be interesting to see what really comes of this case, especially since the americans are talking about trying to extradite to British Citizens as a part of this case....

Or will we wind up waiting another five years, when he finally decides to change his plea, so as to accept a chance of getting out of GitMo, or where ever it is we will be sending THOSE TYPES...
