I believe America has interest in their natural resources.
The US is the third largest oil producer in the world and produces almost three times as much oil as Iraq. Iraq has more proven reserves, but lacks the infrastructure to get it out faster. And also lacks the stability to be able to set up shop, drill, and pipe it out.
When you live in a culture where an officer can shoot someone in the back while running away and get off scot-free
Possibly because it's legal. It's called the fleeing felon rule. If the person fleeing has committed a felony and is a threat to others, the officer can use lethal force to stop him. I'll admit I don't know the details of this case yet, but even if I did I wouldn't jump to conclusions either way just yet.
It's clear with your vast background in both NSA's technical capabilities and CIA's clandestine activities, that Gen Flynn should have consulted with you before talking to the media and making a fool of himself.
Yeah, I often misplace things 40 years in the future, or more sometimes! You know how it is, it's a busy day, my mind is somewhere else, and poof! I can't find my command line application. So I just look up the number for every year in the future and start calling. I've called a lot over the years. If someone told you the 80s called and want something back, I'm sorry for bothering you.
Why can't a computer figure out if there are no runways to fall back on emergency options like roads or rivers? Hard, I'm sure, but far from the hardest part of flying a plane.
Is that why we need to spend 48% of the world's defense spending, as in almost as much as the entire rest of the world combined? While we're 18 trillion dollars in debt?
Bookworm is a compound word (book + worm = bookworm). Lidar is a portmanteau, like spork or satisfice. Lidar is now a backronym for Light Detection and Ranging.

And apparently the officer was immediately fired and is under investigation? So I guess he didn't get off scot free as the OP suggested.

Is 256GB on the microSD slot not enough? Oh, maybe you could get a second 256GB card then.

Somebody mod parent up already. I'm all out of points.
It's up to you to not pass the laws for which we lobby.
And once they fix those two things, it'll be 100% secure with no need to test! Brilliant!
Predicting is hard, especially about the future.

In, the U.S. Postal Service issued colorful dinosaur stamps

And that worked so well that UK is still the world's superpower in naval might. Right?

Sorry, I've been watching Indiana Jones movies the last few days. All three of them.
Yeah, I can't wait to get back to throwing out all critical thinking skills and believing everything I see on the internet again.
