Why Usama bin Ladin has little to fear from American intelligence Is this an example of an "intelligence leak?" (From Jul/Aug, '01 Atlantic)
So it is bad behavior to point out a double post nowadays?

This earlier post has a very interesting article with a slightly different take on the issues at hand.
I don't think these articles are intelligence leaks per se. But I do think bin Laden is probably reading them, or some of his folks are. If it makes him feel safter, well, Ok. If it makes us work harder, that's cool too.

But, also, considering that bin Laden is "the most wired terrorist" around, would articles such as these be part of the counterterrorist effort?
