On June 4th, the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) released an audio recording of a radio exchange between a flotilla ship and the Israeli Navy in which an unidentified crew member of the Mavi Marmara shouted, "Shut up, go back to Auschwitz!" Another unidentified voice with a distinctive Southern drawl explained to the Israeli Navy, "We're helping Arabs go against the US. Don't forget 9/11, guys."
The audio proves that the protesters were not peaceful human rights activists after all but rather Nazi-sympathizing, anti-American evil terrorist types.
Nonetheless, anti-semitic bloggers challenged the veracity of the audio clip, so the IDF released a new video that proves that the flotilla crew was even eviler than anyone had imagined. The disturbing video shows courageous Israeli marines armed only with maintenance equipment fearlessly defending the Jewish homeland from a horde of Nazi zombies.

Still, the Israel-hating bloggers persisted with their ridiculous challenges. They criticized the marines for using excessive force, and they questioned the appearance of snow-covered mountains on the horizon. Some even hypothesized that the video came from a Norwegian horror film.
Therefore, the infinitely patient IDF released one more video to settle the question once and for all. In this unedited clip, there is no snow, and the Israeli marines express deep moral qualms about killing the Nazi zombies even as one of their own is eaten alive.

The Somali militant movement al-Shabab today launched a deadly strike against a U.N. humanitarian compound in Mogadishu that killed one international staffer, three contractors, four Somali security guards, and an unknown number of Somali civilians.
Then the group gloated about it in a creepy series of Twitter posts.
The tweets seemed calculated to taunt the new U.N. representative, Nicholas Kay, who opened a political office in Mogadishu this month. "So Nicholas Kay, are you still planning to settle down in Mogadishu by the end of the month?" read...

[....] Speaking in a hearing mainly about telephone data collection, the bureau's director, Robert Mueller, said it used drones to aid its investigations in a "very, very minimal way, very seldom".
However, the potential for growing drone use either in the US, or involving US citizens abroad, is an increasingly charged issue in Congress, and the FBI acknowleged there may need to be legal restrictions placed on their use to protect privacy.
"It is still in nascent stages but it is worthy of debate and legislation down the road," said Mueller, in response to questions from Hawaii senator Mazie Hirono.
Hirono said: "I think this is a...
OK, admittedly this is not "news", but I couldn't resist posting this. I didn't feel that I had anything to add to it, so I've added it to "In the News". I apologize if that crosses a line…

CAIRO - Egypt's tourism minister tendered his resignation on Tuesday over President Mohamed Mursi's decision to appoint as governor of Luxor a member of a hardline Islamist group blamed for slaughtering 58 tourists there in 1997.
Prime Minister Hisham Kandil did not accept the resignation of Tourism Minister Hisham Zaazou, who remains in the post for now. However, the move pointed to a split in government over an appointment that one critic called "the last nail in the coffin" of the tourism industry.
Mursi appointed Adel Mohamed al-Khayat, a member of al-Gamaa al-Islamiya, as Luxor governor this week, a move seen as a sign of a deepening political alliance between the once-armed group and the...
