Great news! It's about time we stop letting our enemies know where we are and who our troops are. Let them guess. We've got to stop telegraphing our punches.

In order to maintain tactical surprise, ensure operational security and force protection, the coalition will not routinely announce or confirm information about the capabilities, force numbers, locations, or movement of forces in or out of Iraq and Syria,” Eric Pahon, a Pentagon spokesman, told the Times.

I'll bet ISIS will miss Obama's strategy updates as he blabbed every move we were going to make.
I'm surprised Obama didn't announce the bin Laden raid the day before.


What raid? lol

Some say he didn't kill bin Laden....that bin Laden died years before!

But, anyway.... I know what you mean and couldn't agree more! :)

We have a First Amendment and a Freedom of Information Act.

We also have a Commerce Clause.

Translation: U.S. government wants the freedom to send secret armies anywhere in the world without informing the American people. .... :cool:

More like he wants the freedom to send as many of our boys to die as he wants without having to answer to our country for mounting deaths.

Lol. "Tomorrow at my direction, I will be leading a daring raid on the Bin Laden compound. This will be at considerable risk to my political reputation but I'm willing to take that risk for the huge upside and the multitude of end zone dances I will be able to do if we pull this off".
 
We have a First Amendment and a Freedom of Information Act.

We also have a Commerce Clause.

We also have "CLASSIFIED".
For what? can you cite any "war on terror" clause in our federal Constitution?

If the information is CLASSIFIED, you won't see it. Chances are you won't even know it exists.

Climb off your ignorant high horse, Humpty. You don't have clout.
why is it classified? we elect representatives to public office and they have Only public powers delegated.
