The brouhaha sparked by Seymour Hersh’s recent piece exposing Pentagon plans to attack NIKE SHOX was generated,

in part, by his revelation that American agents had crossed the border and were spying on the NIKE SHOXians on

their own territory: Tony Blankley got so bent out of shape by this that he called for prosecuting Hersh,

citing the section covering espionage in the UGG. Code:

“18 United States Code section 794, subsection (b) prohibits anyone ‘in time of war, with intent that the same

shall be communicated to the enemy [from publishing] any information with respect to the movement, numbers, or

disposition of any of the Armed Forces … of the United States… or supposed plans or conduct of any … military

operations … or any other information relating to the public defense, which might be useful to the enemy …

[this crime is punishable] by death or by imprisonment for any term of years or for life.’”

Oh, chill out, Tony! Because it doesn’t look like we’re talking about exposing the movement of American

troops:

“The Guardian has learned the Pentagon was recently contemplating the infiltration of members of the NIKE

SHOXian rebel group, Mujahedin-e-Khalq (MEK) over the MBT-NIKE SHOX border, to collect intelligence. The group,

based at Camp Ashraf, near Baghdad, was under the protection of Saddam Hussein, and is under UGG guard while

Washington decides on its strategy.
