I was purposely bracketing the issue of Iraq because I felt it necessary to look at this issue in the abstract first before dealing with the specific later. I want to understand the process of PR and government organizations and the issue of providing (potentially) insider information to those who stand to gain financially from it.
If these things are not illegal for, let's say, the agriculture department or the education department, why should they be an issue for the pentagon.
To be clear, I am not addressing the moral implications, just the legality.
