U.S.: Pentagon-censored author can’t believe his book was burned

  • The whole premise smacks of retaliation. Someone buying 10,000 books to suppress a story in this digital age is ludicrous.
  • Army Reserve Lt. Col. Anthony Shaffer • Regarding the Pentagon going out of its way to censor his memoir, “Operation Dark Heart” – by destroying thousands of copies. By the way, in case you’re wondering, it’s on the Kindle in digital form, but heavily redacted. Way to stand up for free speech, federal government! source
