Jamming technology is already being used "to protect President Bush." An interesting quote from the article: "Public safety is more important than public convenience.""

    Actually, pull your head out of your ass, the US one of the offending parties here. You must be pretty fucking retarded to compare this to WW2. Like the US is invading iraq and mutilating prisoners out of the goodness of their hearts... gimme a break, fucking retard.

    Hostile towards who? Us? or US? If you look a little closer, I think you will find that a lot of the funding for stuff like this comes from somewhere closer to home.
