By that standard, anything said by anyone is “helpful” to their recruiting efforts, because they are not bound by the actual truth of how they portray those words. For that reason, I find the Newsweek article to provide no real information and to add nothing of real substance to the discussion. My opinion, for whatever it’s worth, is that the Newsweek piece is driven more by a desire to shout down opposition to the project by ad hominem attack than a desire to truly inform the public about a substantive matter. Call me cynical, but I long ago stopped treating “news articles” as though they are devoid of editorial viewpoints.

Shame plays a role in public discourse. Sadly, some people have no shame.
