POPSWashington asks Israel To Clarify First Sale Of Spy Drones To Russia A drone transaction with Moscow would give the Russian army a technological-intelligence edge over Caucasian and Caspian nations, like Georgia and Azerbaijan, and therefore place in doubt their future arms purchases from Israel. Jerusalem consulted with Washington over the deal, as required under the US-Israel 2006 security pact covering Israeli weapons transfers to third countries. The advanced state of Israel-Russian negotiations indicates its approval by the outgoing Bush White House and incoming Obama administration in line with their efforts to improve relations with Moscow.

His mother dies giving birth and his father (Jason Flemyng) abandons him, fittingly, at an old-age home. A maternal black woman, Queenie (Taraji P. Henson), who runs the place, takes him in and raises him in the one environment where he can pass unnoticed. He truly fits in among African-Americans and people old and forgotten by time. As a somewhat younger old man, he meets Daisy as a small girl (Elle Fanning) visiting an ancient relative. Their friendship will last both of their lifetimes -- although ones moving in opposite directions -- and will evolve into romance and passionate love. Much keeps them apart though as Daisy pursues a career in ballet The job on a tug boat with its hard-drinking pilot (Jared Harris) takes him to Russia and an affair with a British spy's wife (Tilda Swinton) and then into naval action in World War II.

POPSTrusted Russian Contact @The Brookings Institution In Washington D.C. Interestingly, one of Talbott's closest friends in the U.S. Senate, Republican Richard Lugar of Indiana, has emerged as a foreign policy adviser to leading Democratic presidential candidate and Senator Barack Obama of Illinois. In 2005, Lugar and Obama made a visit to Russia to promote the scandal-ridden "Cooperative Threat Reduction Program (CTR)," also known as the Nunn-Lugar program for its original Senate sponsors. The CTR has poured about $6 billion into the former Soviet Union in foreign aid, supposedly for the purpose of preventing nuclear proliferation. In what could be the biggest State Department scandal since State Department official and United Nations founder Alger Hiss was exposed as a Soviet spy, a top Clinton State Department official and former Time magazine journalist has been identified as having been a trusted contact of the Russian intelligence service.

POPSOver Friendly US Judge trying AIPAC Spy Case
"Rosen and Weissman were indicted on Aug. 4, 2005--two and a half years ago. Lowell and Nassikas have used every tactic in the book to delay the trial in the hope that if it is delayed long enough, it may not take place at all. Delay has followed delay as the prosecution (the U.S. government) and defense have fought over how open or closed the trial will be and over whom can be called to testify. Among others Judge Ellis has ordered to testify are National Security Adviser Stephen Hadley, former Deputy Secretary of State Richard Armitage, former Deputy Secretary of Defense Paul Wolfowitz, former Under Secretary of Defense Douglas Feith, Deputy National Security Adviser Abrams, Ambassador to Russia Burns, and Pollack, former director of Persian Gulf Affairs for the National Security Council. According to The WP, Lowell and Nassikas will try to prove that their clients’ conduct was lawful and completely consistent with how the US government dealt with AIPAC and other foreign policy

POPSRussian FM says U.S. wants Czech radar to spy on Russia Following the U.S. delegation's visit to Azerbaijan, deputy director of the U.S. Missile Defense Agency (MDA), Brigadier General Patrick O'Reilly, said the U.S. was studying the radar's parameters, and would analyze them later. However, MDA director, Air Force Lt. Gen. Henry Obering III, said on Tuesday that the Gabala radar may only be used as an integral part of U.S. missile defenses in Europe, and could not serve as an alternative to the European shield. The Russian foreign minister reiterated that Russia continued to regard the placement of a U.S. missile shield in Poland and the Czech Republic as a threat to its national security and Moscow had been preparing an adequate response to Washington's move. "We see a threat and we are preparing a response to it," he said.

POPSSex & the CIA Given revelations about the shenanigans of CIA Executive Director Kyle "Dusty" Foggo (who would flash his CIA ID to jump the line at a strip club), Ken Silverstein asked his CIA sources about the role sex played in the work of CIA operations. He asks about the security risks posed by CIA agents' dalliances, as well as how the CIA used sex to recruit and/or entrap other spies. Thankfully, it looks like the KGB used sex more often than the CIA did in their operations.
