When the hell did mainstream journalists become milquetoasts? Let's get some concrete names behind these 'senior defense officials'. This story and others like it, with their proclamations from super-sexy and super-secret informants met in underground parking lots, have no credibility. This use of unnamed sources is as ubiquitous in mainstream journalism as the use of the term 'player to be named later' in sports journalism. It's time the world, not just the American people, start getting straight answers from people who actually exist.
