Saw a story yesterday about how the Canadian military sent a memo around telling soldiers not to reveal their military connections on facebook, because al-Qaeda’s on facebook and it could endanger soldiers and their families. Taken to its logical conclusion, this idea makes the entire Canadian military a covert operation. If a nation’s military isn’t able to operate out in the open, it seems there are a lot of implications.

Also, four more people were released by FARC in Colombia as a result of the Venezuelan mediation.

IMEMC reports that Israel killed about 28 people in Gaza over the past week.
