The Defense Department’s first-ever plan for cyberspace calls on the DoD to expand its ability to thwart attacks from other nations and groups, beef up its cyber workforce and expand collaboration with the private sector.

WHAT THE???? Does EVERY DAMNED thing have to be a WAR with the USG??? Is there no place that is safe from these horrific tentacles?? How much further will they go on th grounds of "security"??? Some of the worst human atrocities have occurred under the excuse of "national security"..... which serves as a blanket for more "sins" than one can fathom. and enables abuse of Gov't power .

Were about to get into a big assed war and we are building our industries up again as we speak. Now that we have the Hindus getting pissed at the Muslims, all hell will break loose with us backing India. Theres more than enough of them to march right on into Aghanistan through Pakistan and take over. They are all well educated and need jobs and land.

Don't worry about Packi nukes. We have them cased from space.

The Persians can only sit back and cry or comply because they'll be next.

Just ask Iraq, Egypt, Libya, Sudan,Ethiopia.....

Considering this is a Socialist movement lots of Mao comes to mind.

• Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun.
• Liberalism is extremely harmful in a revolutionary collective. It is a corrosive which eats away unity, undermines cohesion, causes apathy and creates dissension. It robs the revolutionary ranks of compact organization and strict discipline, prevents policies from being carried through and alienates the Party organizations from the masses which the Party leads. It is an extremely bad tendency.
• A revolution is not a dinner party, or writing an essay, or painting a picture, or doing embroidery. A revolution is an insurrection, an act of violence by which one class overthrows another.
• Politics is war without bloodshed, while war is politics with bloodshed.

Lots of truths there as they apply to the current situation. Quite concerning to say the least. Watching each of these elements unfold one by one and not being able to do anything about it........let alone trying to figure out how it will all end up when all their pieces fall into place.... is not reassurng at all.

Maybe this is why so many do the Ostrich thing when it comes to these issues. It can be over whelming when one really thinks about it.

Full circle, since that's what the internet was developed for.

LOL... The India and Pakistan issues are because of... the US?

Someone needs a BIG LONG LESSON on the history of these two countries!

But, but, but ES, that would seriously interfere with bashing the US.

It SERIOUSLY would!

Of course. See, if it wasn't for the US, and that silly Revolutionary War thing they had, the US would still be a colony. And Great Britain would have spent more energy on their US colonies. But no, the US had to go and become independent, so Britain could focus on hassling India. So of course all of the India/Pakistan issues are the fault of the US.

A war between those two still won't get you a clueless Air Canada agent in Mumbai any quicker.

Very well then.

Did you know in the most popular book on the Falkland Island War the author blames the war on the US? It's true. He said during the War of 1812 a US Frigate sacked the small garrison on the island... leaving a vaccum that led to the Falkland Island War in 1982!

I wonder what they think in India when I insist on eating nothing but a basket of the Dad's cookie two packs and milk when they give the menu choices after being away from Canada a while?

No it wouldn't. it would interfere just for those that, in reality, don't know their ass from a hole in the ground.

They should have stationed Irish Catholics there. The place would be overrun in no time.

Please explain "anti types". Thx. IF being anti ELECTIVE wars based on LIES and motivated by greed is a negative.....then the world is in a bigger crisis than appears. If being anti smoking to keep folks healthy is a negative.... then why bother with health insurance.?? IF being anti FANATICISM of any kind is an issue..... then stop worrying about terror groups and silly religious groups that don't practice what they preach.

You can toss in anti excessive gov't interfering in places they don't belong......like someones sex life., the internet , and those are but a few.

You just need to go with the flow. It's not going to be pretty but it's going to ensure you have great great grandkids.

"Practice what they preach"...That's rich coming from someone that oozes divisiveness, hate and fanaticism, who talks about peace and a global community...LMAO!!!

Why are we discussing Muslim nations now?

the internet

Where predators play.

The anti types = People who hide behind facades of wanting peace, unity, while they are so ignorantly uninformed anti peace and anti unity, in their commentary. In general hypocrites. Not unlike yourself.

and that comes from what authority??

Someone whose anti Americanism can be backed up with tangible facts, for the most part.
