The New IED: Improvised Exploding Dogs

Ronen Bergman wrote a column for the New York Times yesterday about the decline in suicide bombers (they’re running out of volunteers) and how  terrorists may soon train dogs to carry bombs that will be detonated by remote control.
Seven years after 9/11, it may well be that we are witnessing the beginning of the end of […]

Supporting Failure

I just finished reading Frank Rich’s column about how Hillary Clinton is starting to look a lot like Al Gore.  Not the new Al Gore that is confident in his views and public image – The old Al Gore.  The guy that was so careful about what he said during the 2000 campaign that his […]

Deja Vu from the NIE

Today’s story from the Associated Press sounds oddly familiar…
The terrorist network Al-Qaida will likely leverage its contacts and capabilities in Iraq to mount an attack on U.S. soil, according to a new National Intelligence Estimate on threats to the United States.
I guess there’s a chance that Bush might even read this NEA report.  In it […]

The New 9-11 Candidiate

Rudy Giuliani speaking to supporters in Manchester, New Hampshire on Tuesday:
“If any Republican is elected president — and I think, obviously, I would be the best at this — we will remain on offense and will anticipate what (the terrorists) will do and try to stop them before they do it,” Giuliani said.

[He] said Tuesday […]

This Makes Sense

A confluence of technologies, from the Internet to biotechnology, is making it easier and easier for far-flung hatred to assume organized form, intersect with weapons technology and constitute unprecedently potent terrorism. This growing lethality of hatred may be the biggest long-term problem we face.
Here’s a response favored by many left-of-center and right-of-center thinkers. Address the […]

Even Zombies have Rights

Back in July 2006 I posted regarding a news story of a group of zombies being arrested for possession of “simulated weapons of mass destruction.”
The police in Minneapolis were really at the top of their game on this one.  Who knows what could have happened had the zombie dance party been allowed to continue.  By […]

Mile High Club membership getting too expensive

It looks like it is now too expensive to join the Mile High Club.
But isn’t membership free? Yes, so long as a flight attendant does not ask you to stop.
If a flight attendant asks you to stop your ‘activities’ and you don’t, you are now committing a felony.
From Section 46504 of Title 49 of […]

The real October Surprise

Karl Rove is no idiot.  When he promises an ‘October Surprise‘, he delivers.
So, if he promised an ‘October Surprise‘ back in September, he knew what he was delivering.
I have pondered this topic in a few other posts(here, here, and here), but never found his special gift to the world.
But what is it???
I think that his […]

Creator of the fake boarding pass generator appears to be in big trouble

Ever wonder if the security at airports is sufficient to stop a trained terrorist? Is the ban on liquids over 3 oz. really keeping us safe? Do I really need to take off my shoes to have them xrayed?
A friend of mine accidentally attempted to go through airport security in Seattle last weekend, with […]
