This appears to be related to several FBI probes in which antiwar.com editors were the subject of a preliminary investigation or antiwar.com was mentioned in other Bureau files. It's very wide-ranging from FBI interest in stories published about Mossad's involvement in the 9/11 "Movers case" to the Bureau obtaining a copy of one of the editors hard-drives when he returned from Malaysia to allegations that antiwar.com may have published the names of Pakistanis that were under surveillance. Very interesting.
