@AllThingsHLS Except someone ALSO leaked about intercepted courier. So we got HUMINT too.

@emptywheel@DaveedGR@robertcaruso All I'm saying is if I had a sensitive source, tech or HUMINT, to protect I would leak a credible story1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@AllThingsHLS Note, too, that at least one story (McClatchy) sourced to Yemeni source. Happens a lot in Yemen.

@AllThingsHLS No, I'm noting that some of the biggest secrets that have been spilled abt AQAP ops have been spilled by our "partners."

@AllThingsHLS Yup. And particularly on the peninsula, may not always have our best interests in mind.
