The militants in the Mumbai attacks on Nov. 26 testified that they prepared for the attacks using the Google Earth service, leading to heated debate over whether the service threatens security in conflict-ridden areas. Indian police said one of the militants captured at the scene of attacks confessed the group checked the exact locations of the target hotel and the restaurant on Google Earth. Along with some countries with disputed regions in the Middle East and the Southeast Asia, India is against Google Earth due to its potential to threaten national security.
The high-definition satellite maps are detailed enough to show cars in the streets. Suspects in the alleged plot to bomb John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York in June last year also supposedly resorted to Google Earth in an attempt to study the interior of the airport. In February last year, there were some reports from the U.K. that a group of terrorists targeting the British army base in Iraq was using satellite pictures from Google Earth.
Ever since the Google launched the service in 2005, India has asked it to offer lower-definition maps in highly sensitive areas such as the presidential palace, military facilities and disputed areas along the borders. It would be difficult, however, to fault Google for the Mumbai attacks as the locations of restaurants and hotels in the heart of a city appear in just about any tourist maps and guidebook.
Google said although it could be used by the terrorists, the detailed maps have been used more frequently to serve good causes such as rescue and relief.
1. Ji-A RYU 2. different behaviors related to Kim Jong-Il's health 3. I want to point out two things with this news article. First, there are several people who can be the candidates of the successor after Kim Jong-Il. Even though Kim Jong-Il's health has been announced as ill or bad, Kim Jong-Il and the Party haven't chosen the next successor at all. What has made them so easygoing? Second, it may the coincidence and the lack of my search ability, however, whenever I found out the fact relevant for Kim Jong-Il's health, the sources of them have been from Japanese news media. Constantly they have produced the discourses about Kim's illness and the mood of crisis in North Korea. Conversely, Lee administration has constantly denied Japanese news media. Which one is true? Why have Japanese media announced such news all the time more than any other countries? Also, does Lee administration have an accurate information about Kim Jong-Il or does Lee administration want to hide things they have found out?
TOKYO, Dec. 2 (UPI) -- A previously unknown third son of North Korean leader Kim Jong Il has emerged as a contender for power in Pyongyang, an analyst says.
The son, whose name isn't known, occupies a powerful position in the North Korean army and could have the backing of the military if there is a power struggle in Pyongyang following the death of the 66-year-old Kim Jong Il, The Daily Telegraph reported Tuesday.
Toshimitsu Shigemura, a professor of international relations at Tokyo's Waseda University and an expert on North Korean affairs, told the newspaper that the third son, believed to be his 30s, joins Kim's eldest son, Kim Jong Nam, and the youngest, 28-year-old Kim Jong Chol, as possible successors to "the Dear Leader."
Shigemura told the Telegraph his sources indicate Kim Jong Il has suffered one and possibly two debilitating strokes and has only months to live. North Korea has downplayed previous reports of Kim's supposed ill health.
Kim Jong Chol is believed to have his father's blessing to succeed him. But Pyongyang's unofficial spokesman, U.S.-North Korea Peace Executive Director Kim Myong Chol, told the newspaper there is no power struggle going on, adding that when the time comes, the most appropriate person will be chosen by the Communist Party.
A very down to earth* kind of guy. I'm an environmental sociologist interested in establishing material and organizational sustainability worldwide. I'm always looking for interesting materials/technologies, inspiring ideas, or institutional examples of sustainability to inspire others to recognize their choices now. To be fatalistic about an unsustainable world is a sign of a captive mind, given all our options.
*(If "earth" is defined in a planetary sense, concerning comparative historical knowledge and interest in the past 10,000 years or so anywhere...) See both blogs.
