I have disagreed with her a lot, but comparing her to republicans and propagandists of dictatorships is really low. - An idiotLooks like the TSA issued a directive to increase searches on passengers coming from Europe and the Middle East with intel suggesting smartphone explosives.
"Exit muna si Polgas. Ang kailangan dito ay si Dobermaxx!"What's the difference between this new sort of smartphone explosives and the "overcharge your laptop battery" stuff mentioned by some blogger a while back (yes, the fellow wrote that after having the TSA ruin his day)?

"Exit muna si Polgas. Ang kailangan dito ay si Dobermaxx!"It's the difference between adding acid and vinegar together in a jar, and plastic explosive.
"We learn from history that we do not learn from history."BBC: Iraq rebels 'seize nuclear materials'
In a letter seen by Reuters, Iraq's envoy to the UN said nearly 40kg (88lb) of uranium compounds were seized.
The letter appealed for international help to "stave off the threat of their use by terrorists in Iraq or abroad".
Action in Britain & France:
David Cameron says the Data Retention and Investigation Powers Bill is needed to fight "criminals and terrorists".
But civil liberties groups say it infringes the right to privacy and sets a dangerous precedent. It comes after the European Court of Justice struck down existing powers.
An EU directive requiring phone and internet companies to retain communications data - when and who their customers called, texted and emailed but not what was said - for a 12 month period was ruled unlawful in April by the European Court.
Without a new law being passed in the UK to retain the powers, Mr Cameron claims that that information could be destroyed within weeks by companies fearing legal challenges, meaning police and the security services will not be able to access it.
A special cabinet meeting is being held on Thursday to agree the planned laws, which will have a "sunset clause" meaning they will lapse in 2016.
Government officials say that two or three young Muslims leave France every day to join Islamist groups abroad. There are fears they will eventually pose a threat to France itself.
A French citizen arrested for the killing of four people at the Brussels Jewish Museum in May, Mehdi Nemmouche, had returned from Syria, after being radicalised in prison. Another French-born jihadist, Mohamed Merah, killed seven people in Toulouse in 2012 before being shot by police. His victims were three paratroopers as well as three children and a teacher at a Jewish school.
EU counter-terrorism coordinator Gille de Kerchove announced on Tuesday that interior ministers from nine countries had adopted an action plan to identify people travelling to Syria and stop them falling into terrorism on their return.
The countries that signed up to the plan are Belgium, France, Germany, the UK, Spain, Italy, Denmark, Sweden and the Netherlands.

Keep Rolling OnThe Office of Transport Security in Manila issued a directive to screen iPads, iPhones and other electronic devices from bags and carry-on luggages. If something has a battery on (PSP, Game Boy), it's needed to have passengers to remove them for security screening.

Final Fantasy, Foreign Policy, and Bollywood. Helluva combo, that...Following a FUBAR situation where a CCP-backed imam is assassinated in downtown Xinjiang, Public Security Police arrested a university professor of Uyghur was arrested for encouraging separatism.
Note that the imam is not liked by the populace and the professor had talked to foreign media about problems in the rest, especially with the 2008 unrest.

Schild und Schwert der ParteiBeijing has mandated that anyone with extremely long beards or Islamic clothes aren't allowed on public transport to cut down on further terror attacks.
Criticism is mounting up.
"Exit muna si Polgas. Ang kailangan dito ay si Dobermaxx!"Brilliant strategy. We all know that RIFs* won't publicly hide their religious beliefs in order to sneak in an attack.
Somewhat more seriously, the attackers in the 9/11/01 attack were living in the US well before the strike, and didn't have problems with booze, women, or the other things that generally are frowned upon in "proper" Muslim society. Loss of a beard or cultural clothing to strike a blow against the infidel* is a small price to pay.

Final Fantasy, Foreign Policy, and Bollywood. Helluva combo, that...True. The reports are vague, but it's most likely on countries in the Asia-Pacific region.
