Amy Zegart of the Hoover Institution, author of several terrific books on intelligence, now has a regular column on intelligence matters at Foreign Policy that should be of great interest to Lawfare readers.  Her first piece uses the kerfuffle over the publication of No Easy Day, the book by Navy Seal Mark Owen (a pseudonym) that describes in detail the Bin Laden raid, as a basis for exploring the antiquated and dysfunctional secrecy system.  Highly recommended.
