“For Those Who Don’t Want To Believe”

I feel uncomfortably like a prophet. In January , and again last week , I wrote about the prospect of UAVs used as weapons by terrorists; yesterday a man was arrested who “planned to attack the Pentagon using ‘small drone airplanes’ filled with explosives and guided by GPS.” http://techcrunch.com/2011/10/01/for-those-who-dont-want-to-believe/
