Postol is of course remembered for his analysis of the Scud missiles
supposedly shot down by the Patriot missiles in the first Iraq war.
The govvies were claiming a very high kill rate (80%?).
Postol examined the radar track data, and concluded that the
actual kill rate was somewhere between 0 and 20%.
At that point (if my memory serves), the track data was CLASSIFIED,
and Postol accused of violating national security!
