Politics Buzz Dick Cheney had a secret C.I.A. club that planned to assassinate suspected Al-Qaeda terrorists abroad. While it never came to fruition (one source told the Times it “sounds great in the movies, but when you try to do it, it’s not that easy”), people are beginning to ponder the legal implications of such a program, which itself was assassinated by C.I.A. director Leon E. Panetta just last month. Others are speculating that this is just the tip of an iceberg…
If you're looking for a good “How I met a terrorist” story to spice up your afternoon then look no further than Sacha Baron Cohen's appearance on Letterman last night. He tells of how he found and met with a terrorist to interview as Brüno, somewhere in the West Bank. It involves the CIA!

Sports Buzz Too lazy to walk and too environmentally-conscious to drive, terrorists are turning to bikes to carry out their attacks. But do they wear helmets?
Tech Buzz The U.S. Army sees Twitter as a potential weapon of mass destruction for terrorists. The Army’s report says in part, “Twitter is already used by some members to post and/or support extremist ideologies and perspectives.” I assume they’re talking about Apple fanboys or Ashley Todd. What would Osama have to Twitter about? “Cave sure is cold today. Had gruel again for lunch. Going to go read TechCrunch.”
