The decision by the author of 'No Easy Day,' Matt Bissonnette, not to submit the book for prepublication review was 'the height of irresponsibility,' says a Pentagon spokesman.

Pentagon officials say they are considering legal action against the former Navy SEAL who wrote an insider account of the Osama bin Laden raid, warning that the book reveals “sensitive and classified” information that has never before been in the public realm.

My Comment: They may prosecute him .... but the genie is already out of the bottle.
