Heh, seems pretty bad... but:

Nice, a slashdot churnalistic work citing a no-name
reputable source (techzwn) ... at least it's not mentioned, for example, on wikipedia (unlike TheRegister, CNET, ZDNET, Symantec, etc). Seriously, hasn't twitter supplanted slashdot for churnalism? How can you read that drivel man?
"Could be" is speculation. Besides, that doesn't make a whole lot of sense. If they wanted to monitor their own systems, why not have the command center's own IT do it instead? Or, why not tell them about monitoring prior so they don't embarrass the military by going to the press? I don't buy that explanation at all.
