What do you know about the classification of the Taguba Report?

[alcuno]

I was just half-listening to NPR's On The Media and there was a discussion of the classification of the Taguba Report. It sounded like they were saying that it was unusual for the report to have been classified "Secret" and that that is part of the story. I hadn't ever thought about the classification of that report.

1. It's illegal to classify documents that report of possible crimes commited

I heard that from several sources.

I think Sy Hersh is one source and I heard it on Amy Goodman's "Democracy Now" program.

2. Classifying Suspected War Crimes

Is a war crime....General Meyers involvement in interfering with the CBS broadcast of the " said report" is another violation....IMPEACHMENT....,hell.....Hang the Bastards. !!... they have put innocent people in peril... and the Bloodthirsty Bastards have put our standing in the World as a leader and a financial player in the toilet.....

3. It is also illegal to classify a document for political reasons

or to hide embarrassing revelations. Whomever classified this could be in very big trouble.
