Oh sure, let the Czechs and the Poles twist in the wind... it's not like we haven't done THAT shit before. MFers.Christians have frequently been targeted since turmoil swept the country after the 2003 U.S.-led invasion, although the attacks have ebbed with a sharp drop in overall violence.Churches, priests and businesses of the generally prosperous, well-educated community have been attacked by militants who denounce Christians as pro-American "crusaders." The body of Paulos Rahho, the Chaldean Catholic archbishop of Mosul, also was found in March following his abduction by gunmen after a Mass.

Bolton: 'With no likelihood of US use of force, that leaves Israel' With the end of the Bush administration, the possibility of US use of military force against Iran's nuclear program has dropped essentially to zero. The diplomatic effort failed years ago, and I don't think any renewed American effort is fundamentally going to make any difference. Iran has all the scientific and technological knowledge it needs right now to create a nuclear weapon. We can tell from publicly available information from the International Atomic Energy Agency that Iran has enough low-enriched uranium which, if enriched to weapons-grade levels, would allow it one nuclear weapon now, and possibly another one or two this year. Let me stress here: That's what we know publicly from the IAEA - no James Bond involved in that calculation - and there may well be additional activities we don't know about, which would make Iran's capability even more substantial. So, if the diplomatic option has failed, that leaves only regime change or the use of force. And with no likelihood of American use of force, that leaves Israel.

Bomb plants to shift to control of Pentagon The Obama administration is considering whether to shift the management of nuclear weapons production to the Pentagon from the Energy Department, a step that would end more than 60 years of civilian control over nuclear bomb manufacture.EXIGENT!
Rahm takes over census
The Obama Administration has moved the census out of the Department of Commerce and into the White House, putting Rahm Emanuel in control of doing the census:
Now, why would Rahm Emanuel want the Census under his control in the White House? Huh? Why might that be? "The census is used to allocate federal aid to states and draw electoral districts," the New York Times editorial board wrote in order to REMIND PRESIDENT OBAMA that he might not want a REPUBLICAN in charge of drawing "electoral districts." Good god almighty. So now Obama's administration has decided that they'll do the census themselves.
Obama to Expand Powers of NSC:Just in case you missed it, the Washington Post has a news-making interview with President Obama's National Security Adviser, Gen. Jim Jones (Ret.), this morning in which Jones discusses the pending expanded powers of the National Security Council.

Arms scandal hurts Moscow in Caspian Great GameRussia Leads Arctic Race to Claim Northwest Passage
At a Nato conference, the Secretary-General, Jaap de Hoop Scheffer, warned that members might need a military presence in the Arctic because of growing tensions. Russia, with a third of its territory north of the Arctic Circle, has been noisiest in its claims. Its Defence Ministry has prepared a national directive, laying claim to large parts of the region.
In September Anatoli Serdyukov, the Defence Minister, flew to Nagurskoye military station, a northern outpost, to prepare this strategy document. Britain, Canada, the US, China, Norway, Denmark and the EU all are preparing different claims. Canada doubled its funding for mapping the seabed last year and said that it would open an army training post at Resolute Bay, and a deep-water port. In the final weeks of his presidency, George W.Bush issued the US’s strategy for the region...
