True, but the quoted statement appears to be self-contained. It is that much more interesting that the author of the document seemed to feel the need to add justification beyond the assertion that the documents could endanger people's lives. It is this added justification that strikes me especially problematic. The definition of terrorism that is implied is so vague and arbitrary that it seems that it can be attributed to almost any political process. |

It's also worth remembering that Greenwald chose that quote to go in his article so would have chosen to put it in a context that emphasises his viewpoint.
I still don't understand why Miranda flew though the UK when he was carrying UK intelligence materials - still looks like a baited trap for publicity to me.
