| Show Press Has Not Been Tested in Persian Gulf Whenever the military undertakes d operations such as in the Persian Gulf a ticklish question always arises: How should the press cover events? To whom does a reporter owe primary loyalty? To the military? To the country? To what we scribblers somewhat hopefully believe to be The Truth? Or to all at real-worl- ' Soldiering ( I Fred 1 t4 once? Reed The United States has never found an entirely satisfactory answer In World War II the military straightforwardly censored the news to eliminate coverage bf disasters or any thing else that Would embarrass the brass The armed forces' justification was that public support was needed to win the war - In Vietnam the opposite tack was tried Reporters could pretty much go anywhere they liked and write anything they liked Failures real and imagined were regularly re ported Today senior officers who i were in Asia believe that an uncontrolled press caused the loss of the Vietnam War by undermining public support Reporters tend to think that the military lost the war and got mad when the press said it was losing it During Grenada the military's ap proach was to keep the press out entirely Gnashing of teeth ensued from newsrooms To a large extent military people don't understand the press The Army a deeply masochistic institu tion occasionally asks me to speak about the media at the Army War College or West Point Question-andanswsessions usually follow The questions invariably make plain that reporters are thought to be unscruespionage agents pulous free-lanc- e These assaults can be frontal: A colonel once raised hi hand and asked "What I want to know is do you guys have any ethics?" Actually the press can do its job only because the vast majority of reporters do have ethics The Pentagon for example often gives reporters copies of speeches and such before they are officially released These are "embargoed" against pub lication until their official release Very seldom does a reporter break the embargo Soldiers often charge that report ers give away classified information that can get men killed This is true in the sense that a good intelligence agency can deduce a great deal from a democracy's ordinary publications What to do about the rare reporter who publishes information abcut an imminent invasion I don't know This doesn't happen nearly as often as Gis think it does but it isn't unheard of Personally if the Pentagon asks me not to publish technical or tactical information I don't publish it Many writers and editors do like- ' wise - only when it quested was justified the media would gen The trick is deciding when a re quest not to publish is reasonable and when it isn't If I somehow know that a SEAL team is going to destroy a coastal radar at a certain time clearly I don't publish it without getBut suppose I ting the team killed know that the B-- 2 has been misdesigned so that it can carry only a third of the bomb load it was supposed to carry On one hand the public which pays for the military has a right to know if it is getting its money's worth On the other hand if potential adversaries know that an tant weapon doesn't work very well the weapon ceases to be a deterrent As a practical fact of life the tagon believes that any embarrassing information should be kept secret -- for reasons of national security of course The regular abuse of military secrecy to avoid political discomfiture makes reporters very skeptical I suspect that if the Pentagon re the Saudi capital of Riyadh who gave his name only as Abdullah told of a man he knew who complied with the Iraqi order to turn in firearms "The police shot him in the head put his body in a garbage bag and left it in front of his house" he re- called Egyptian doctors who recently left Kuwait where they had been working at hospitals said Iraqi soldiers claim officers lied to troops to trick them into taking part in the Aug 2 invasion that "They were originally told troops all over the Arab world were gathering together and going to Egypt and then they would invade one of Israel" Jilan Abdel-Waha- b the doctors told a news conference in Cairo Another doctor Yehia Mohammed said he saw Iraqi soldiers shoot to death five Kuwaiti children for demonstrajoining tions Ten other children brought to his hospital with bullet wounds also died he said to The US ambassador-designat- e Kuwait Edward Gnehm Jr told re NICOSIA Cyprus (AP) — Iraq has tightened its vise on occupied Kuwait through systematic terror in an effort to wipe out remaining resistance residents and officials say Iraqi authorities are trying to force-fee- d Kuwaitis a new Iraqi nationality They have ordered Kuwaitis to trade their nationality documents for Iraqi citizenship and change their Kuwaiti currency for Iraqi dinars In his latest pledge to retain control over Kuwait Iraqi President Saddam Hussein told a visiting delegation of Islamic theologians Monday he will never withdraw "even if we have to fight for 1000 years" : Iraq has increased its troop strength in Kuwait to 430000 adding 70000 soldiers in just two weeks U& officials said in Washington this week Iraq also continues to deploy tanks and other armor within striking distance of Saudi Arabia the Defense Department officials said Meanwhile refugees from Kuwait are still trickling out bringing more tales cf terror A Kuwaiti refugee interviewed in : rL"!4ii p 1 F d 0 - akgair - 4ml" 0 - 7:" litigi 7 -- - - ' ' im !HIM ' Vh 'e' I If 41 t! - tit 16C' '' I" t 1: TIN '' 11 " &SS TP' - ' 1 4 gllv pi ? - - - tl - f " f f 1 IT ' 4- it ti 'f p ' :j'I t ' ' e '' - :: :-- ' ' t ' ' Tr!: 1:- MIC11P-- - o r i'figner '53" Q L -- - :- ' - 0 Dtt-t3-70 p - i kip 'There's no parking- I 1111 miss my plane!" v"t 4 Hold it!
