Threshold for Getting Onto No-Fly List Lowered
January 6th, 2010 admin
The government has lowered the criteria for putting someone on a watch list or no-fly list and has so far revoked several U.S. visas as a result of the reduced threshold, according to CNN. The action will result in more people being grounded from flights or undergoing secondary screening at airports, though officials wouldn’t indicate how many people might be affected. The terrorist watchlist has about 400,000 names on it, according to the most recent figures reported by the government. Most of them are non-U.S. citizens, and the list includes those suspected of providing…

Christopher Hitchens on National Se...December 7, 1987 www.amazon.com Watch the full speech: thefilmarchived.blogspot.com Christopher Eric Hitchens (born April 13, 1949) is an English-American author and journalist. His books, essays, and journalistic career have spanned more than four decades, making him a public intellectual, and a staple of talk shows and lecture circuits. He has been a columnist and literary critic at The Atlantic, Vanity Fair, Slate, World Affairs, The Nation, Free Inquiry, and a variety of other media outlets. As a political observer, polemicist and self-defined radical with an astute historical knowledge, Hitchens rose to prominence as a fixture of the left-wing publications of both his native United Kingdom and United States. Hitchens's departure from the established political left began in 1989 after what he called the "tepid reaction" of the European left following Ayatollah Khomeini's issue of a fatwā calling for the murder of Salman Rushdie. The September 11, 2001 attacks strengthened his embrace of an interventionist foreign policy, and his vociferous criticism of what he called "fascism with an Islamic face." Hitchens's adoption of interventionist foreign policy, employment of the term "Islamofascist" and his notable support for the Iraq War have caused his critics to label him a "neoconservative." Hitchens, however, refuses to embrace this designation, insisting himself to be not "any kind of conservative." Hitchens is an atheist and has been identified as being an exponent of <b>...</b>
