I always got the feeling my doctor was just googling my symptoms to come up with a diagnosis. Now I guess they won't be hiding it. I just hope that it doesn't make any silly mistakes like prescribing hysterectomies for men.
Have you ever actually questioned a doctor on the specifics of anything? I did today when I was with my oral surgeon, and it's amazing how much they actually know. Any question I asked them, they had the answer instantly.
Has there been any change from Manning's document release, aside from a new clampdown on interdepartmental information sharing within the U.S. government, reminiscent of pre-9/11 days?
So is this WSJ's pathetic attempt of "Look, exposure through data!" in the style of WikiLeaks? If they want to expose secrets, why not the secrets of government corruption and criminality that are being hidden?
Funny how they are just exposing information of their own costumer base, some of whom might cancel subscriptions or deny them interviews now. And for what? To win the hearts and minds of the shit-covered-peasants, who don't even read this magazine?
Maybe there's just not THAT much real corruption and criminality going on in U.S. government.
Carbon offsets are not real. I repeat, carbon offsets and carbon credits are NOT real. It's the equivalent of purchasing organic foods because you want to help nature.
The U.S. currency is used in over 75% of international foreign exchange transactions, and additionally it is one of the top few most stable currencies on the world market.
So how long before downloading a song in Canada is re-defined as an act of war, so you can invade if we don't turn the suspect over so he can be tried (er... disappeared into a secret prison and tortured).
I'm being facetious of course, but I genuinely do view "terrorists" as criminals, and terrorist suspects as criminal suspects with all the rights accorded to them.
Oh hurrah, lets celebrate because the great united states murdered somebody halfway around the world.
This whole fiasco just martyrs the guy.
You were being facetious? You compared someone downloading a copyrighted song with someone who blew up two U.S. embassies in Africa killing hundreds, blew up the basement of a World Trade Center building, masterminded a plot that ended up killing more than three-thousand innocent civilians who were going about their day-to-day life...
No, that's not being facetious, that's just being a moron. Moral relativism is for chumps, and you sir are a chump.
The "most appalling spy machines" I can think of are the North Korean/Soviet/Chinese/Ba'ath/Iranian surveillance systems, where they don't even have notions such as warrants and due process and right to reasonable privacy. Assange needs to read about some true issues in the world. We still have hundreds of thousands of North Koreans in physical labor reeducation centers, Chinese sending hundreds of citizens at a time to secret prisons, Syrian Ba'ath surveillance where a government informer is installed in every individual neighborhood, pervasive Iranian political police cracking down on dissidents... Come on now, there are far worse monstrosities in the world today than Facebook telling the world on accident that you cheat on your significant other or do drugs. Some people need to get a grip.
Note to Slashdot editors: Take down the incorrect summary. Many news outlets are now giving detailed reporting that it was a U.S. raid on Sunday that saw bin Laden killed.
Al Qaida did not move into Iraq. Very, very few fighters from Al Qaida or the Taliban operating in Afghanistan or Pakistan made it to Iraq to fight, since they already had infidels to fight. Abu Musab al-Zaraqi renamed his group "Al Qaida in Iraq" and had direct correspondence with Osama bin Laden and Ayman al-Zawahiri, but they quickly split due to ideological differences. Long story short, there is no current connection between the two groups "Al Qaida" and "Al Qaida in Iraq", and there hasn't been since 2006 at the latest. Be careful which term you use.
... if your main reason to keep the US army "out there" is because the mission hasn't been "accomplished" yet and the world still isn't "safe"
I didn't say anything to agree or disagree with you. You don't know which way I stand unless you assume somebody agreeing with your general points would never say anything to hurt the movement.
I insulted you because I thought your post was only reaching for karma points, and I still think that way.
Do you think that just by destroying Al-Qaeda terrorism will just magically vanish?
Then again, that's the beauty of it.
Did you think about your post for longer than it took to try for some cheap karma points? Because I can tell you most people who DO look at your post are going to analyze it critically and not just award random points.
More coverage at ABC News, at CNN, and at Al Jazeera. The reports say that Bin Laden was actually killed about a week ago by a bomb in Pakistan, and the time taken to confirm his identity via DNA testing helped delay the news. In downtown Austin, Texas, in the time since the story broke I've heard what sound like numerous celebratory gunshots.
That's from the summary. NONE of the three sources state that, and none of the sources I read have said anything like that. I'm not going to jump to conclusions and say he was killed by a bomb in Pakistan a week ago, when the President said he was killed in a ground operation. He was likely killed by American rifles, whether face-to-face or initially from a distance.

Your entire post is wrong.
Wow. You are upset they are trying him for crimes he likely committed, rather than crimes he likely did not?

I'm done with Slashdot. Too much is enough. Thanks for the ten-year ride.
Fine, here's a source. And another. And another. And another.

MSNBC is reporting that he was killed in a targeted U.S. raid of his mansion.

There would have never, ever been an order to capture him alive.
