In reply to the discussion: Newly released FBI documents shows Petraeus disclosures less damaging than Clinton emails [View all]jzodda
(2,124 posts)First off the damage done by Petraeus to national security was very low or he would be in jail. The reason he was in far more trouble than HRC was firstly a matter of intent! He intentionally did what he did knowing he was violating the rules with regards to handling of classified material. Clinton never intended to violate anything. In fact most of the emails were classified RETRO ACTIVELY meaning after she already was done with it. The whole affair is a long running dispute between agencies.
Next, if has been suggested by Mother Jones and now the WSJ the emails regarded drone strikes and discussion of these strikes by the New York Times where is the harm to national security? How can you do damage to national security if the info has already been reported on in the public?
So HRC and others talk about an article in the Times and the content of said article and then its later made classified by CIA for what reason?
There will be NO indictment
