"The first turn to the west that diverted the missing Malaysia Airlines plane from its planned flight path from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing was carried out through a computer system that was most likely programmed by someone in the plane's cockpit who was knowledgeable about airplane systems, according to senior American officials."
I think its a little suspicious that 2/3s of the plane's passengers were Chinese, yet I still believe there was a malfunction that occurred on the plane instead of an act of terrorism.
People have been speculating that the known flight path made a complete U-Turn from its destined path, however, they talked about two men who forged or faked their passports to board the plane.
It is amazing that in 2014 we can lose track of a plane with 200 people missing. The transponder being shut off(?) or broken seems the most confusing part.
(CNN) -- An operation targeting al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula is under way in Abyan and Shabwa, Yemen, a high-level Yemeni government official who is being briefed on the strikes told CNN on Monday. The official said that the scale of the strikes against AQAP is "massive and unprecedented" and that at least 30 militants have been killed.
It's surprising how we've been pulled back with involvements with cases like these. And also the fact that it was an organization/group/etc. we went after before adds on to the surprise of our current involvement. Back in early 2000's we were fighting wars, now we're just planning defense without using our troops.
(CNN) -- President Barack Obama will address the country Wednesday to explain to the nation "what our game plan is going forward" in the fight against ISIS. In an interview that aired Sunday on NBC's "Meet the Press," Obama expressed confidence that the United States, with help from regional partners, will be able to wipe out the terror organization.
If you were the CEO of Sony, do you postpone the release of this movie for fear that other hackers will release sensitive information your company doesnt want public?
On June 25, North Korea's official Korean Central News Agency condemned the film (without naming it), promising "stern" and "merciless" retaliation if the film is released. "Making and releasing a film that portrays an attack on our top-level leadership is the most blatant act of terrorism and war and will absolutely not be tolerated"

I think Sony should release the movie anyway. Korea already has the information so what's done is done. Sony spent a lot of money to make the movie so if they just throw away all of the time and money, it would be even more of a loss.
I don't understand why it would be a big deal anyway its not like any of their citizens can see the movie only the Korean leader could because of the communism he is running in the country. If it as taken as a form of threat then so be it it was never intended as that.
I dont think Sony should be scared. North Korea might release all of there information and financials but the movie isnt really that big of a deal. They should go ahead and release it.
But with Iranian-backed rebels now overrunning the U.S. ally tasked with beating back local al Qaeda affiliates, the nation at the tip of Arabian Peninsula makes a better case study in the approach's limitations. Yemen was the petri dish for Obama's concept of how to fight Islamic extremists with a hybrid warfare of U.S.
The terrorism attack here orphaned a baby. Her parents were the killers. The child, born on May 21, is in the custody of San Bernardino County child protective services - her precise whereabouts undisclosed, though presumably she is with a foster family.
Abdirahman Sandhere, also known as "Ukash," and two other Al-Shabaab-affiliated associates were killed in a U.S. military airstrike in Somalia on Wednesday, Pentagon Press Secretary Peter Cook said in a statement. "Ukash's removal from the battlefield is a significant blow to al-Shabaab and reflects the painstaking work by our intelligence, military, and law enforcement professionals," Cook said.
After all, the most significant U.S. response to the threats facing the West post-9/11 was regime change in Iraq and Afghanistan, an approach that cost thousands of American lives and a trillion dollars, but which has failed to eliminate the threat to American citizens while leaving the Middle East in an even bigger mess than it was.
A former State Department official has told lawmakers that Hillary Clinton allies privately removed politically damaging documents before turning over files to the supposedly independent board investigating the Benghazi terror attack. The account from Raymond Maxwell, former head of the Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs (NEA), was first published in The Daily Signal.
"President Obama is bringing together almost 50 countries here in the nuclear security summit not only to talk about protecting nuclear materials but that dangerous section between terrorism and nuclear weapons," Brett McGurk, Obama's envoy for the global coalition to counter ISIS, told CNN's Wolf Blitzer on "The Situation Room."
If ISIS would happen to obtain a nuke, the United States would definitely have to be on guard. Seeing how freely ISIS is willing to kill millions of innocent people.
President Obama held a meeting with almost 50 countries to talk about the nuclear security summit. They talked about how they have and will keep protecting more and more land from nuclear weapons. They realize that terrorists will use them to kill as many people as possible and because of that they are doing everything they can to keep nuclear weapons out of their hands.
Police investigator Peter Springare isn't likely to be among those mocking President Trump for his remarks about refugees in Sweden. Trump's comments during a Florida campaign rally on Saturday - which some took as a misstatement about a supposed terror attack - dovetail with what Springare has been seeing during a typical week in Orebro, Sweden.
This is a terrible event. I can't believe that ISIS is still believing they are doing the right thing. They are killing people in the name of their God and the way they think things shouldn't be. They are Hippocratics.
