VIENNA - The United Nations nuclear watchdog is training Chinese security personnel to respond to any radiological attack during the Olympic Games in Beijing in August, officials said on Friday.

A radiological attack is one involving a release of radioactivity -- for example through a "dirty bomb" in which radioactive material is packed around conventional explosives and scattered when the device goes off.

The Benny Morris op-ed in the NYT last Friday should provide convincing evidence that Israel really really really wants an attack against Iran sooner rather than later.  Morris is close to the Israeli government and his case that Iran must be bombed soon and with maximum conventional weaponry to avoid using nukes later was clearly intended to push the United States to do the attacking.

Earlier this year I decided to see if it was possible to create an urban legend from scratch. To manufacture a completely a bogus story, a hoax, plucked straight from the catacombs of my mind, and pass it off as if it were fact. I decided to set-up a memes.org alter-ego, and under this temporary guise unleashed this unto the world.

Wow.  I love it when an article like this pops up.  As reported in today's Haaretz, Libyan leader Muammar Gadhafi said on Wednesday that U.S. Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama's expressed support for Israel "stems from his fear that the Mossad would assassinate him, just as it did President John F. Kennedy". 

(And there was I thinking Gadhafi was secretly wearing a Mission Impossible mask.)
