Does intelligence help?

U.S. Had Intel on Chemical Strike Before It Was Launched | The Cable - http://safe.mn/nFQ_

Data moves through a life cycle and Intel DOES NOT become knowledge until it is shared. This occurs through official  channels that mimics a political and legal process. Really not sure what part the media plays in educating a general population of the facts. Even well written detailed articles such as this have an accusing headline in a general context.

The headline to me is a positive when compared to the break in Intel life cycle that occurred during 9/11. This particular article describes an effective data gathering system going through an analysis process in the hopes of reducing the effectiveness of illegitimate human acts. However, it still does not make the decisions of how to respond easy. So I would have to ask - what would MY HEADLINE  be? It seems very hard to create a headline that DOES'NT take a side or position. Think all my headlines would be questions especially since FACTS are SHARED Intel with a common understanding.
