Bullshitter's stance on his Big Beautiful Bomb

The bullshitter admitted for a time that his Big Beautiful Bomb probably didn't destroy Iran's uranium enrichment factory, but since then reverted to his wishful pretense. And now he has threatened to imprison journalists who published the leaked intelligence report unless they reveal their source.

We do not know whether the journalists know the identity pf the leaker(s). We can hope they do not know. But what if they do?

Their duty is to go prison rather than help the authoritarian regime lie in the future. But that takes special courage, that few people have.

A leaker could protect the journalists by fleeing and then announcing perse was the leaker. But where could perse be safe? Is there a country on Earth that would protect the leakers?

Some enemies of the US might protect the leaker, out of hatred for the US rather than out of love of human rights; but they are ruled by tyrants even worse than what the bully seeks to become. Accepting shelter from such a tyrant would not be a defense of freedom and truth.

(Remember that Snowden did not choose to live in Russia. He bought tickets for a connection in Moscow, but while he was in the air, the US cancelled his passport, so he could not board his flight out of Moscow.)
