the white house now seems okay with the disclosure. what do you make of it? >> well, there are two things. one is, okay, one thing to actually investigate and do the report. there's another issue is why make the report public? why make the report prick now? -- public now? there should be one major rule in foreign policy like in medicine, first do no harm. by releasing this report now three thicks are going to happen -- things are going to happen. one, it gives excuse for a revenge attack on americans. secondly, foreign intelligence agencies look at this and say we can't trust america to keep secrets, we're not going to cooperate with america. we're not going to share our intelligence. and then finally, what it does is tells everybody who works in the american intelligence community, watch out. you may do something that you think is justified and legal, but ten years later you could be investigated for this, you could be called out, you could be put in danger. so i look at all of that and say one thing to write the report, another thing to do harm by releasing the report publicly. shannon: all right. we have in the past been told
