] U.S. troops in Iraq will soon be able to lace their ] defensive perimeters with a high-tech, multi-pronged ] version of one of the most effective weapons in their ] enemy's playbook: the remote-controlled bomb. The terrorists use them. Now so do we - except via a laptop over a wireless network in conjunction with GPS. So there's a downside and upside to this. Downside - hackers can now hack into the Matrix (nice name Army dudes!) and blow stuff up - dude, sweet. Upside - It's about time we start dropping down to the terrorist's level. If it were up to me, I'd be strapping bombs to Iraqi death row inmates and sending them back home. Is that harsh? |
