Rapid Fire 11/24/06

* Baghdad under curfew

* Former Russian spy dies of 'radiation poisoning'

* Brits in Afghanistan 'forced to borrow ammuntion'

* ...and short of vehicles, night sights and grenades

* DARPA plans ultra-fast supercavitating submarine

* Pakistan and China to collaborate on AWACS

* IDF face anti-aircraft missiles in Gaza Strip

* US Naval legend located (...almost)

* Bioterror sniffers get sensitive

Comments

The Russian spy case just seems to get stranger and stranger. Did he poison himself? Was he poisoned to be kept quiet? And how about all the people that went to that sushi bar? I would be a little concerned right now.

I am an avid navla historian and recall redaing more than one or two commnet that the franch naval frigate Alliance did much more damage to already leaking and overmatched Bon Homme Richard (nominally named after poor richards almanac). Alliance sailed around the two engaged ships wreathed in powder smoke and indiscrimantely fired into both combatants. Recovering/exploring the remains would rpove interesting from this angle the our French "allies" have struck again!

Good Morning Folks,

John Burns of "The New York Times" shows up in Baghdad on Nov. 23, the Suuni's slaughter 215 Shiite's in Sar City. The Civil War has started.

Once again the newspaper of records man is where the action is, someone please tell me that there wasn't some tip off from the Bushies that this was the time and place to be.

The New York Times, all the news the Bush Administration wants you to know and when they want you told.

ALLONS,
Byron Skinner
