I doubt it. If that were the case it would be all over Drudge, Fox and every other news organization.

In the light of recent intelligence leaks of the US all over the world like "wikileaks" She is doing this 1. Get the input and pulse of whats going on on the ground in their locations and indicators as to how the US foreign policy is going......OOOP's did I say Foreign Policy? My Bad......;there is none and second I believe she is doing this to release New Policies to our ambassadors as well as avoid another international scam. Just my opinion. Peace.

May have something to do with the Wikileaks info that Obama gave Russia UK nuclear secrets. Probably trying to figure out how to do damage control and maintain credibility of the US.

.

The USA has a new gun that can actually fire over walls and around corners(not a joke). Scope computes distance and shooter can set bullet to go over wall

and explode within 1 metre of the enemy.

They should have not introduced the new gun until Obama was out of office. He will probably leak "ALL" of the specs to the rest of the world, if he follows what he has done over the past 2 years

New U.S. Army Rifles! No hiding place from new U.S. Army rifles that use radio-controlled smart bullets. ~ By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Weapon hailed as a game-changer that can fire up and over barriers and down into trenches. Soldiers will start using them in Afghanistan later this month. The U.S. army is to begin using a futuristic rifle that fires radio-controlled 'smart' bullets in Afghanistan for the first time, it has emerged.

The XM25 Counter Defilade Target Engagement System has a range of roughly 2,300 feet - and is to be deployed in Afghanistan this month

The rifle's gunsight uses a laser rangefinder to determine the exact distance to the obstruction, after which the soldier can add or subtract up to 3 metres from that distance to enable the bullets to clear the barrier and explode above or beside the target.

Soldiers will be able to use them to target snipers hidden in trenches rather than calling in air strikes.

The 25-millimetre round contains a chip that receives a radio signal from the gunsight as to the precise distance to the target.

Lt. Col. Christopher Lehner, project manager for the system, described the weapon as a 'game-changer' that other nations will try and copy.

He expects the Army to buy 12,500 of the XM25 rifles this year, enough for every member of the infantry and special forces.

Lehner told FoxNews: 'With this weapon system, we take away cover from [enemy targets] forever.

'Tactics are going to have to be rewritten. The only thing we can see [enemies] being able to do is run away.'

Experts say the rifle means that enemy troops will no longer be safe if they take cover

The XM25 appears perfect weapon for street-to-street fighting that troops in Afghanistan have to engage in, with enemy fighters hiding behind walls and only breaking cover to fire occasionally.

The weapon's laser finder would work out how far away the enemy was and then the U.S. soldier would add one metre using a button near the trigger.

When fired, the explosive round would carry exactly one metre past the wall and explode with the force of a hand grenade above the Taliban fighter.

The army's project manager for new weapons, Douglas Tamilio, said: ''This is the first leap-ahead technology for troops that we've been able to develop and deploy.'

A patent granted to the bullet's maker, Alliant Techsystems, reveals that the chip can calculate how far it has travelled.

Mr Tamilio said: 'You could shoot a Javelin missile, and it would cost £43,000. These rounds will end up costing £15.50 apiece.

They're relatively cheap.Lehner added: 'This is a game-changer. The enemy has learned to get cover, for hundreds if not thousands of years. 'Well, they can't do that anymore.

We're taking that cover from them and there's only two outcomes: We're going to get you behind that cover or force you to flee.'

The rifle will initially use high-explosive rounds, but its makers say that it might later use versions with smaller explosive charges that aim to stun rather than kill.

So, I suppose that you are the kind that watches cnn, msnbc, cbs, etc? Good luck getting real news.

All news is biased. If you think CNN or Fox News are really neutral, you are blind. I try sources like BBC America, but even then you can catch some leaning one way or the other, depending on the anchor.

Does it have to do with this? I don't know but found this interesting...

http://www.whatdoesitmean.com/index1446.htm Crazy stuff in here but the White House link below seems to back up the deal. Ya just don't know what to think anymore!

Wonder how much that cost the taxpayers.......

I am sure it costs more than not having an understanding of what is happening in countries around the world. Don't you see the consternation, demonstrations, front page news about discontent? We may be able to quell the storm if we have a first hand understanding as to what is going on.

But if the ME blows up I am sure it will be cheaper than 200 or so plane flights and hotel rooms.
