Those deals are not made in one week. Maybe this agreement with the Pentagon has something to do with the drama of a couple of months ago.

That sounds very likely. The ideological purists of the old board would have acted exactly as they did if they learned about this deal at that time.
Would also explain why they were silent afterwards and took the loss sitting down; NSLs are scary stuff (what a democracy! --sorry, republic).
