Laila Abdel Salam Speaks For The First Time on TV
2009-09-22 10:12:00 Honestly I wish that Mona El-Shazely did that interview with Laila Abdel aka the Real Samia Fahmy who is currently working in Al Ahrar newspaper. Laila Abdel Salam speaks with Amr Adib along Ambassador Dr.Rafaat El-Ansari who had his share in the real spies war. Ambassador El-Ansari has very interesting story which insh Allah will be featured in Egyptian Chronicles after my recovery ;) She revealed more information about her story which is simple and so short , her trip in Italy , it only took about a month or even less to arrest Mario , the Spy of Israel in Egypt , yes he was not in Rome but in Egypt. By the way here is Laila in early 1970s, she looked like Nahed El-Sharif more than Menna Shalby if I may say.
Twitter attack a national security issue
2009-08-06 20:02:00 More at Zennie62.com | Follow me on Twitter! | Get my widget! | Visit YouTube | Visit UShow.com A funny thing - well ok, not so funny thing - happened this morning at 6 am while I slept comfortably and soundly: Twitter was down. Something called a "Denial of Service" which resulted in this message according to TechCrunch: We are defending against a denial of service attack, and will update status again shortly. As of 8:16 PST Twitter was up again, and seems to be fine now, but they're still defending against the attack! What does all this mean? It signals just how vulnerable these small business private sector Internet systems are, and this is a matter of national security. It's far beyond Twitter Phishing, which I talked about here: ...but it underscores the point that Twitter is the constant focus of some kind of attack. Let's not forget that for all of its 44 million visitors last month and its powerful role in the Iran protest, the San Francisco-based company...

National Security Review Under China's New Anti-Monopoly Law
2008-08-29 23:48:00 By Steve Dickinson China's National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) recently reported on its plans for forming an interagency committee to review the national security impacts of foreign acquisitions of Chinese companies. Contrary to many of the news reports in both English and Chinese, this is not a new policy adopted by the NDRC. The formation of such a committee is consistent with longstanding China policy and it is required by law. China's Anti Monopoly Law (AML) became effective on August 1, 2008. Article 31 of the AML provides for national security review of foreign M&A transactions as follows: Article 31. If the merger with or acquisition of domestic enterprises by foreign investors or other forms of concentration involving foreign investors concerns national security, in addition to the review for concentration of undertakings in accordance with the provisions of this Law, it shall be examined for national security review in accordance with relevant regulat...

John McCain on Energy Security and Our National Security VIDEO
2008-06-24 21:01:00 ARLINGTON, VA -- U.S. Senator John McCain delivered the following remarks as prepared for delivery at a town hall meeting in Fresno, CA, June 23 at 10:00 a.m. PDT (1:00 p.m. EDT):Thank you all very much. I appreciate the kind introduction from Jim Woolsey, and the warm welcome to Fresno State. I'm here to listen about energy issues as well as to talk. So let me just offer a few ideas before we begin our discussion. All across this state and nation, people are hurting because the price of gasoline is higher than it should be, and more than many folks can afford. Because of far-off events in the world oil market, a barrel of oil has more than doubled in a year. And the bad effects of that are spreading across our economy. The cost of business is rising, the cost of food and other essentials is rising, the whole cost of living is rising. What isn't rising is the value of your paychecks and the rate of America's economic growth. Back in the 1970's, they used to call this "stagflati...

A drop of life you are wasting
2008-05-31 12:32:00 In our holy Quran "Allah" SWT says "We create from Water everything life."All the experts are saying that we are heading towards a Water Crisis in the future , all the experts are saying that all the wars in the future especially in our regions will be not for oil or land or even Peace but for Water. It is something you can understand easily , water is the most important thing in life ,it is the essence of life .But of course we do not listen to all these warnings , they are just newspapers talk .

Coal is Critical to our National Security
2008-05-11 04:50:00 Barack Obama is trying to appeal to rural voters in Kentucky by running a coal ad that touts his accomplishment of helping secure funds for clean coal technology. (See Ad Here) He is also planning on campaigning a bit in the Bluegrass State. I am little surprised he is but glad to see it. But I am not sure just how coal friendly Barack Obama really is, I hate to say that but it is true. We look at Saudi Arabia as the king of good light crude oil. Venezuela's heavier crude is becoming more coveted and is making that small country very rich. The United States is the Saudi Arabia of coal and our very future depends on providing cheap energy to America and then the world. A study a few years ago weighed in on the possibility of the tap running dry in the Middle East and or soaring oil prices becoming a prelude to a bitter recession that could provide a death blow to part of our society as we know it. The impact on the economy would be devastating and then our national s...

Haitian Cargo Ships Present Too Great A Risk To Bahamas National Security
2008-04-21 23:49:00 Ban on Haitian boat would double import costs: By INDERIA SAUNDERS, Guardian Business Desk - Nassau, Bahamas: A pending ban on Haitian sloops in our waters could take the wind out of the sails of a business that has only begun to develop – entirely legal trade between Haiti and The Bahamas. Last week, Director of Immigration Vernon Burrows confirmed the policy change, suggesting those cargo ships present too great a risk to national security. While the wooden-hulled vessels are suspected of playing a major role in the trafficking of drugs, guns and humans, they're also the only freighters that conduct regular and direct import runs from the impoverished nation. It is, of course, the homeland of an increasing number of Bahamians and a target for local businesses looking to trim supply costs. The government decision represents yet another hurdle in the latter's path and is most likely an answer to requests from American officials. Just last month, the new U.S. Internat...

Countdown: Sen. Biden Interview 'Dems Stronger on National Security'
2008-04-16 18:13:00 The laughable bullshit starts at the 4:20 mark. Democrats have a LONG history of appeasement, back stabbing, and cowering towards direct threats to America. You only have to look at Jimmy Carters trip to meet with Hamas to see that. They've continually denounced everything about America, and blamed America and Americans for the world's ills, so you tell me, who's stronger on national security? The folks who went after threats to this country, or those who let attack after attack happen to Americans for almost a decade without doing anything about it until 1998? Let's not forget the 1993 bombing of the WTC, the US Embassy bombings, the USS Cole, and the list goes on and on. The response? A couple of missile strikes. Travis travis@rightwinglunatic.com
