CRIMINAL JUSTICE:

A friendly reminder that if an Interpol agent breaks into your house or robs you on the street, he or she has been given full immunity by Obama. Have a nice day.

WAR:

Yemeni forces kill two al Qaeda agents. The fragile government of Yemen doesn't want the US dropping bombs on their country, so they're trying to take out al Qaeda. That's a good thing. Saudi Arabia is bombing al Qaeda strongholds in Yemen.

Double agent working for al Qaeda kills seven CIA agents in suicide bomb attack.

This article from Ann Coulter about airport security is subpar, but it reminds me of a movie I dreamed about making last night. Somebody should make a farcical movie about Osama bin Laden flying to Miami on al Qaeda airlines and going through customs with a standard yuppie roll-behind bag marked with a nuclear warning label. He'd jump from flight to flight in airports all over the US getting through customs by warning guards against being racist, threatening Israel and using Jedi mind tricks. Normal Americans would scream that Osama bin Laden is trying to nuke America and try to stop him, but the guards would taser, beat and neck pinch them and high-five each other. American Muslims would try to stop him, but bin Laden would shoot them before getting on the next plane. Finally some mild-mannered house-wife would spot bin Laden right as he tried to set off his bomb in a New York airport, and she would beat him to death, turn his face into hamburger with blood and meat flying all over. It couldn't be too campy. In the end she would be arrested and convicted for murder and sentenced to life in prison. Feel free to take this idea and run with it. If you get rich, you might want to buy me a beer, set me up for life or something in between.

FOREIGN POLICY:

Chinese companies banned from doing business in the US for selling weapons to Iran continue to do business in the US. Corruption is king. Government edicts can't change human nature.

MISC:

Car dealers using intellectual property arguments to attack competing service centers. IP is spinning out of control, and it's likely to disappear because of it.

Kepler finds five new exoplanets and seems destined to find Earth like planets in the future.

Demand for android leaps ahead as demand for I-Phone falls. Maybe I'm getting the hang of predicting these things. Finally.
