Russia and India signed a contract on Tuesday to jointly develop a design for a new fifth-generation multirole fighter. The document was signed between Russia's state arms exporter Rosoboronexport and India's Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) during Russian President Dmitry Medvedev's current visit to India. Russia's Sukhoi holding and India's Hindustan Aeronautics Limited agreed in early 2010 to jointly develop a fifth-generation fighter jet based on the T-50 design.

Four months after an Indian MiG-27 fighter bomber crashed, and all Indian MiG-27s were grounded, the aircraft have been cleared to fly again. The long delay was caused by fears that all the Russian made engines in these aircraft might have a common problem. This is not a new problem. The MiG-27, and Cold War era Russian warplanes in general, do not age well. India only has about a hundred MiG-27s still operational, and all of them were grounded for over a year (2005-6) when serious problems were discovered with the MiG-27s Russian designed engines. Things have since gotten better,...

Russian and Chinese weapons manufacturers are clashing head on within the international arms market as China’s new fighter jet seems to be a cheaper imitation of the Russian original. The deal is facing opposition from Russian aircraft manufacturers, such as Mikhail Pogosyan, the head of the MiG and Sukhoi aviation holding, who said that the FC-1 is extremely close, if not the same, as the Russian-made MiG-29. Pogosyan claimed that FC-1 is a direct competitor to Russia's MiG-29 and the deal would incur losses for the Russian manufacturers. A source quoted by the Kommersant newspaper said there are significant price...

White hat hackers have created a proof of concept demo illustrating how improved User Account Control (UAC) features in Windows 7 might be completely bypassed. The new Win7 UAC code-injection bypass can be used to elevate the rights of any command so that actions, even extreme steps such as thrashing a system, become an option. As such the demo goes beyond previous explorations of how UAC might be simply turned off. UAC was introduced in Windows Vista as a security feature designed to prompt users for permission before allowing applications to run. Criticised as intrusive and annoying by some, Microsoft...

The United American Committee, headed by Jesse Petrilla, has put up its first anti-Sharia billboard. And in the Detroit area, no less! The 48-foot-long ad is on the Detroit-Toledo expressway in Luna Pier, about 10 miles north of Toledo and 20 miles south of Detroit on I-75. Petrilla goes where almost every last U.S. “leader” fears to tread, and even boasts: “It’s up just in time for the Thanksgiving traffic!”

Here it is. The United American Committee's billboard to alert about the threat of Sharia. It's on the Detroit-Toledo I-75 expressway. The message is clear, "Sharia Law Threatens America"

The User Account Control in Windows Vista improves security by reducing application privileges from administrative to standard levels, but UAC has been widely criticized for the nagging alerts it generates. According to oneMicrosoft (NSDQ: MSFT) executive, the annoyance factor was actually part of the plan. In a Thursday presentation at RSA 2008 in San Francisco, David Cross, a product unit manager at Microsoft who was part of the team that developed UAC, admitted that Microsoft's strategy with UAC was to irritate users and ISVs in order to get them to change their behavior."The reason we put UAC into the platform...

BLACK REPARATIONS: FROM WHOM? TO WHOM? By the United American Committee | March 5th 2007 Researchers have reportedly found evidence that the ancestors of Al Sharpton may have been owned by the ancestors of Democrat-turned Dixiecrat-turned Republican Strom Thurmond. This is an interesting, albeit ironic, possibility. We are now hearing demands from descendants of West African Americanized slaves claiming reparations. Who should be responsible for paying those reparations? And who should receive them? First, what about an American Black U.S. citizen who is not a descendant from American slaves, such as Barak Obama, or others who immigrated to the U.S....

Al-Jazeera Office Protested The Washington Post 5-1-06 By Petula Dvorak Six protesters stood outside al-Jazeera's new downtown Washington office yesterday, calling its soon-to-be-launched, English-language network a "propaganda shop on American soil." "Al-Jazeera is not welcome here," said Dave Holly, a computer programmer from Valley Forge, Pa., who protested outside the Arab network's office in the 1600 block of K Street NW. Organizers had said they expected about 200 protesters, but the gathering fell flat. The United American Committee, which organized the demonstration, said the gathering would kick off a 24-hour, seven-day-a-week vigil outside the office. But by 3 p.m., all...

UAC Calls for Protest of Al-Jazeera Network's Planned American Station. Rally/Protest Planned for April 30th in Washington DC Al-Jazeera, the television network that many call the propaganda wing of the radical Islamist movement in the world, is scheduled shortly to launch their network in English aimed at Americans with their new studios being in Washington DC. The United American Committee objects to the establishment of the network in America; "It's as if Joseph Goebbels, the Propaganda Minster for Hitler, were to have set up a station in America during WWII." says Lee Kaplan, member of the UAC executive committee. Al-Jazeera...

Yassin Aref and Mohammed Hossain were accused Thursday of attempting to provide support to Jaish-e-Mohammed, a Pakistan-based group listed by the federal government as a terrorist organization. Aref, who leads a New York mosque, also was charged with lying to federal officials.

U.S. More Accepting of Islam, Less Likely Than Britain to Create Radicals By Patrick Bourland - After Britain assigned culpability to its own citizens in connection with the July subway bombings, a wave of concern crossed the Atlantic and sprinkled the American shore: Could something like that happen here, too?Washington, D.C. - infoZine - Recently, prominent Muslims in Washington have whistled a more hopeful tune: something like that probably won't happen here, and concrete reasons explain why. James Zogby, founder and president of the Arab American Institute, expressed the idea in the simplest terms. "You can be a third-generation Kurd...

Fears of religious extremists spur gallery to shelve sculpture of Koran embedded in glass One of Britain's leading conceptual artists has accused the Tate gallery of 'cowardice' after it banned one of his major works for fear of offending some Muslims after the London terrorist bombings. John Latham's God Is Great consists of a large sheet of thick glass with copies of Islam, Christianity and Judaism's most sacred texts - the Koran, Bible and Talmud - apparently embedded within its surface. The work was due to go on display last week in an exhibition dedicated to Latham at London's Tate...

A committee appointed by the British government, composed of Muslims, wants the nation to scrap its Holocaust Memorial Day, in the name of inclusiveness and sensitivity. No word yet on whether they also want to eliminate Passover – said to be insensitive to Egyptians. The committee recommends replacing the observance (started in 2001 and held annually on January 27) with a Genocide (a.k.a., Victimhood) Day, which would recognize the alleged mass murder of Muslims in "Palestine," Chechnya, Bosnia, and wherever else followers of the Religion of Peace have come into conflict with the accursed infidel. In making its case for...

In 1991, the Canadian province of Ontario passed what seemed at the time to be an enlightened, multicultural piece of legislation. Called the Arbitration Act, it stipulates that if two parties agree to engage a commercial, religious, or other arbitrator to settle a civil dispute, the provincial authorities will then enforce the verdict, so long as it is in accord with Canadian law. “People can use any arbitrator they want and can use a religious framework if it is mutually acceptable,” notes Brendan Crawley, spokesman for the Ontario Ministry of the Attorney General. “If the award is not compatible with...

Burger King will be withdrawing and changing the logo for its ice cream cups because, if one looks very closely and has a good imagination, the logo appeared to some Muslims to look sort of like the word Allah in Arabic if it was viewed from just the right angle. Not wanting to offend, Burger King caved in to the constantly complaining and whining Muslims who seem to find some offense in just about everything these days. One has to wonder just how many Western Muslims can even read Arabic. The Taliban found offense in the ancient statues of Buddha...

Just a little question posed to the forum: What are your suggestions for activities the United American Committee may do to help stop Islamic terror in America and protect the American people? FYI The UAC focuses on confronting the Islamic extremist threat in the U.S., we'd like to know the peoples thoughts on activities and direction:

Focusing on Islamic extremism in America, dedicated to monitoring threats which face America from within; The United American Committee is an organization turned into massive political movement in America. LOS ANGELES, CA – With tens of thousands of members in the first months of launching, the United American Committee spreads awareness of threats which face America from within the nation’s boarders. Primarily focusing on Islamic extremism in America, the organization promotes awareness of facts which generally concern the nation’s populous, and the security, and future of America. The American people may interact with the organization through their website at http://www.UnitedAmericanCommittee.org...

The United American Committee, a fast growing organization/movement in America to battle the threats of Islamic extremism within our nations borders, has released their 10 POINT PLATFORM to counter the threats and issues we face in our nation today.

With over 10,000 members in the first several months of launching, the United American Committee grows across the U.S. at an unprecedented rate. The organization focuses on promoting awareness of threats which face America from within the U.S. borders, primarily focusing on Islamic Extremism within America. With local chapters launching across the U.S., this is far more than an organization, it is a massive political movement. Their website is www.UnitedAmericanCommittee.org The monitoring of Islamic Extremism within America, something which all too many have ignored.
