Technology can be a boon .. or it can be a bane.

sensitive lines are crossed every day in the administration of justice and prosecution of same ..

after seeing how well previous regimes have failed, able danger, gorelick wall, most recently Boston, having similar idiots run today’s,, and then having folk like Clapper and Donlin and now Rice in the mix..

seems like a mighty ‘risky scheme’ to pursue unreined.. more like layers of cake gumming up the works.. I pity the poor folk that get caught up in the mix..

“Why didn’t PRISM KNOW THIS I wonder.”

Probably because PRISM is only being used to spy on TEA Party members, NRA leaders, pro-life activists, and so on.

It is more easy to listen to wired telephones and the listening device does not even have to touch the wires.

All communications including wired telephones, cell phones, email and all other internet communciations can be heard or read.

No communication, unless whispered by two people standing next to each other, is safe.

U.S. Embassy in Kabul tells Americans to stay off the streets:

Kabul City: Due to reports of an explosion in Kabul near the airport, we advise U.S citizens to remain indoors and exercise caution and avoid the airport. Further updates on the situation will be posted to the Embassy website as they come available. June 10, 2013

As a reminder, in accordance with the Travel Warning for Afghanistan, the Department of State warns U.S. citizens against travel to Afghanistan. U.S. citizens traveling to Afghanistan despite this warning should avoid being predictable in their movements, including varying routes and times in commutes or other routine travel. The U.S. Embassy urges U.S. citizens to remain vigilant and avoid areas where westerners congregate, such as hotels and guest houses. Do not discuss travel plans or other personal matters with strangers, or in public places.
