I realize I've probably said this before ... but what the heck, I'll say it again ...

1. What makes you think that the enemy doesn't already have your playbook? Do you believe that all 50,000 TSA employees have adequately protected TSA's secrets, so that there's no possibility that someone --- deliberately or accidentally --- has made TSA's playbook available to the enemy?

And, if not ... then since the enemy already has the playbook, what value is there in continuing to pretend that the playbook is still a secret?

2. What's the harm in giving the playbook to the enemy? TSA's objective is supposed to be to secure commercial travel, not make arrests. If you tell people "this is how we're going to search for bombs", and terrorists decide not to bring bombs on-board as a result, haven't you achieved your goal?
