George somewhere in the comments has it right. Can’t we (the government and the media) refrain from describing our methods for catching terrorists for even 10 minutes? Every person caught becomes a detailed lesson for the bad guys about what not to do next time. Who is this retired NSA idiot, violating his agreement not to discuss such things even after leaving the agency? Why do so many press outlets immediately put together an expert team to try and research how the catch was made and then print the details? Sounds like they caught this guy because he was using a pay-go cell phone. You can bet the next terrorist won’t.
