>MSNBC has just reported that their news division has agreed to withhold airing Al Qaeda pre-recorded statements until they have been fully screened for any hidden messages to terrorists.
>I realize that this is a method used for disseminating instructions, and having spent 8 years in the military intelligence field and 7 years as a government employee following that, I am extremely sensitive to this subject. However, this will not prevent the information from getting to the terrorists. In my opinion this is sensorship and the only audience prevented from having immediate access to public information is us, the American public. Any terrorist looking for hidden messages will still get the instructions (if any) via sattellite news on Al Jazeera.

I totally agree with the Administration on this policy.

We are at War and let us not help the enemy with our own media and technology.
