p> TREACHERY UNPUNISHED? br> Re: Robert M. Goldberg's Engineering Communism: American Style : /p> p>The most interesting part of this piece is where Staros blames Berg for leading Staros into the temptation of communism. It seems that City College of New York acquires no responsibility for failing to inform their students about the failures of communism that occurred as far back as our Civil War. Apparently, City College of New York is more likely to advocate warning labels for what is consumed by the stomach than what is consumed by the mind. br> -- Danny L.

Based on the information presented in the article, Joel Barr/Berg is now apparently living (again) in the USA.

If this is true, one question immediately comes to mind: Why is Barr/Berg not in prison? There's no doubt that he is a traitor. He admits that he is guilty of treason against the United States of America. Yet he apparently is not only free, he's capitalizing on his infamy to line his own pockets (and is, of course, a media darling).

If our government can't (or won't) punish those responsible for committing heinous acts of treason against our nation, I suppose we shouldn't dare hope that the editorial staff of the New York Times will be punished for the unlawful disclosure of classified, top-secret information.

p>They used to say that treason never prospered, because if it did, "None dare call it treason." Now, it not only prospers, it gets seven-figure book deals.
