>If you thought that United States intelligence and law enforcement agencies around the country were incredibly adamant about spying on its citizens (going to extreme lengths to do so), you haven’t seen anything yet. Across the pond, the Campaigners Privacy International filed a formal complaint against the UK’s GCHQ, levying claims that the agency’s efforts to hack the devices of ordinary citizens was unlawful.
>However, not only did the GCHQ acknowledge that it was involved in a widespread hacking campaign (reversing previous denials on the matter), but the Investigatory Powers Tribunal (IPT) actually condoned the actions, which it calls Computer Network Exploitation (CNE), and deemed them lawful. As the BBC notes, the GCHQ is given full authority to “remotely activate cameras and microphones on devices, without the owner's knowledge, log keystrokes, install malware, copy documents and track locations.”
...
>The tribunal further justifies the GCHQ’s actions, writing:
>"[There is a need for] balance to be drawn between the urgent need of the Intelligence Agencies to safeguard the public and the protection of an individual’s privacy and/or freedom of expression. We are satisfied that with the new E I Code, and whatever the outcome of Parliamentary consideration of the IP Bill, a proper balance is being struck in regard to the matters we have been asked to consider. "
>For its part, British Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond applauded the ruling, stating, "The ability to exploit computer networks plays a crucial part in our ability to protect the British public.

Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev said his country is in a new Cold War with the U.S. and its allies, underscoring the tenuous level of trust that’s putting a day-old plan for a truce in Syria at risk.
The clash, with echoes of superpower rhetoric during the 20th century, played out at the Munich Security Conference on Saturday even as Russia, Europe and the U.S. say they’re seeking cooperation to end Syria’s civil war, resolve the armed standoff in eastern Ukraine and make progress toward lifting European economic sanctions against Russia.
Fresh from helping craft the accord for Syria, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov suggested that the U.S. is reneging on the agreement and put the chances of success at less than 50 percent. U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry, addressing the meeting separately, demanded an end to Russian bombing of groups opposed to Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.
“This is a hinge point,” Kerry told the Munich Security Conference on Saturday. “We hope this week can be a week of change. It is critical for all of us to take advantage of this moment to make this cessation of hostilities work.”
On stage at the international gathering of diplomats and defense officials, Medvedev set a different tone, blaming the U.S.-led North Atlantic Treaty Organization for stoking conflict. Jens Stoltenberg, the alliance’s secretary general, said Russia is using its nuclear arsenal to intimidate Europe.
“The political line of NATO toward Russia remains unfriendly and closed,” Medvedev said in a speech. “It can be said more sharply: We have slid into a time of a new Cold War.”

In the South, now the pivotal battlefield of the 2016 presidential campaign, faith and politics walk the aisle together. And while Christians have always dominated American politics – Bernie Sanders this week became the first non-Christian ever to win a presidential primary in U.S. history – conservative Christians feel under siege.

So are you trying to imply that all Christians act like the one in the top frame of the comic? Do you stereotype like that when it comes to other groups too?
Truth is some of them are normal people and they are indeed being disenfranchised by this PC enforcement nonsense which is essentially divide and conquer in its most obvious form. You don't have to be against everything white, male, and traditional. Those are the things that got our society to where it is today. Yet I've seen nothing but regression since the other side has taken the reigns, and I say that as a third party.

>India will summon the U.S. ambassador to convey its “displeasure” at the planned sale of F-16 fighter jets to neighbor Pakistan.
>The U.S. State Department notified Congress on Friday that it had approved the sale of eight Block 52 Lockheed Martin fighters valued at $699 million, government aides said. The jets will be used to support Pakistan counterterrorism operations against militants, they said.
>“We disagree with their rationale that such arms transfers help to combat terrorism,” Indian Foreign Ministry spokesman Vikas Swarup said on Twitter. “The record of the last many years in this regard speaks for itself.”
>U.S. Congress has 30 days to approve the sale, which will be announced publicly on Saturday. The planes are powered by Pratt & Whitney F100-PW-229 engines and pilots will use the Boeing Joint Helmet Mounted Cueing System.
>India and Pakistan have fought four wars and are home to the world’s fastest-growing nuclear arsenals and the most militarized border. India was the second-largest buyer of U.S. arms in 2014 and is vying to become one of the first countries to import armed Predator Avenger drones from the U.S., a move that would allow it to remotely drop a bomb on any square inch of Pakistan.
>Pakistan previously bought 18 Block 52 F-16s as part of a $5.1 billion arms package that included electronics and weapons upgrades for 46 existing Pakistan F-16s.

Find your own person to do your dirty work, loo-boys.
Are they old US Air Force F-16s? Or are they brand new F-16s?
Isn't the tech behind the F-16 like 40 years old? You'd think they'd only be selling F-22s or even F-18s exclusively by now.

Millionaires living in states that expanded Medicaid are benefiting from government-sponsored health insurance, and taxpayers are footing the bill for it.
In states that expanded Medicaid, people with high net worths and low monthly incomes qualify for Medicaid because of loosened eligibility requirements implemented under Obamacare. And in rural states like Iowa, Americans whom many would consider wealthy are taking advantage of this “loophole” and enrolling in coverage paid for by taxpayers.
Jesse Patton, an insurance broker living in Iowa, has had clients with net worths ranging from $2 million to $5 million, which often stem from farmland or assets from divorce settlements. And those clients, he said, are enrolled in Medicaid in expansion states like Iowa.
“It was designed to help the lower-income population,” Patton told the Daily Signal of Medicaid. “But without the asset test, there are folks that have the financial means and assets there that are good at figuring out how to work the system and capture a benefit they’re entitled to.”Sign Up
Under the Affordable Care Act, states that opted to expand Medicaid did away with an asset test, which was previously used to determine eligibility in regular Medicaid. To qualify for the program, the government considered a combination of income and net worth.
Now, under the law, eligibility in states that did and did not expand Medicaid is linked solely to modified adjusted gross income, keeping it in line with the tax code.
“This was a move to standardize as much as possible, so you’re bringing in more people, but you’re not complicating the system to where you can’t figure it out,” Joy Wilson, director of health and human services policy at the National Conference of State Legislatures, told the Daily Signal.
