54/102 CEF said:"Then there is the real reason for the government’s press ban—the all too obvious concern that the attention paid the casualties will impact on the already shaky support for the Afghan War and, perhaps, hurt the government’s chances of re-election. There is some hypocrisy shaping the government’s actions."

Damn that's a fine idea! Instead of spending thousands per year per resident to incarcerate provisionally honest people, we'll employ police officers to spend a few dollars' worth of paid time delivering stern lectures!
