That's some fine illiterate spin there Bob.
So you failed on two accounts.

Yes, I'm sure no other billionaires would think to do that.
(You can't see it, but my eyes are rolling.)
The Koch brothers? I doubt they'd get the chance, there are plenty of people ahead of them in line.
Out of the $128 million spent by the top 10 individual donors to outside groups, Democrats hauled in $91 million or 71% of donations.
The libertarian Koch Brothers came in tied for the 23rd spot of largest spenders, according to the Associated Press. -- source
Supposedly their new capsules contain 375mg of coacoa flavanols.
The supplements are a follow on to their previous research and another product. The first "CocoaVia" product was a small dark chocolate bar made with their proprietary Coacoapro process which they claim significantly boosts the level of retained flavanols in chocolate.
Finland, like other countries that have had security incidents, seeks to protect itself
Supo wants expanded net surveillance powers - 20.6.2013
The head of the Finnish Security Intelligence Service (Supo) has told the business daily Talouselämä that his organization wants increased funding and expanded powers to carry out surveillance of internet traffic.
Five years ago, the Swedish Defence Radio Authority (FRA) was authorized to warrantlessly wiretap all telephone and internet traffic that crosses Sweden's borders. According to Supo chief Antti Pelttari, Finland should consider introducing the Swedish model here as well.
"Our legal mandate is to ensure the security of the State of Finland and its social system from both internal and external threats," said Pelttari. "There must be means available to monitor what is transmitted through data networks, and the capacity to identify and evaluate anomalies," he added.
I wonder who is attacking the Finns, and who would have reason to? Russia has been menacing Finland and its neighbors in the Baltics with incursions by aircraft and submarines. There is concern that Russia may turn on Finland after Ukraine. The Baltic states and other targets of Russia have suffered similar attacks coming from Russia.
That isn't going to help since NK apparently has hackers located in China. I'm pretty sure we won't be blocking all IP addresses from China.
Justice served. Just like when we invaded Iraq.
FTFY
Let's see who you're going to bat for:
Revealed: the gas chamber horror of North Korea's gulag
North Korea 'testing chemical weapons on political prisoners'
I find you extraordinary.
Colin Powell assured me that it was North Korea, and that we must act NOW. And that's good enough for me!
The saga of never ending butthurt over Iraq continues to play out in dishonest rhetoric on unrelated issues.
But yes, the time to act was then since Saddam was buying his way out of sanctions with the immense corruption of the Oil for Food program and the charges against Saddam were correct, including having banned long range rockets and unfilled chemical warheads. (Not to mention the 5000+ chemical and biological weapons found in Iraq.) The only one missed was he didn't have current production of WMD, but that would have resumed once he was free of sanctions.
You also don't give credit where credit is due: Saddam had the Iraqi government act as if it was hiding its WMD programs to fool the Iranians because Saddam thought he could rely on people like you to block the West from taking action so he could continue his crimes against humanity, support for terrorism, massive corruption, and ultimately resume WMD production.
Saddam was far shrewder than you.
The FBI, that well-known organisation with large amounts of experience and jurisdiction over international matters?
Who do you think it is that deals with international organized crime at the US Federal level? I take it you have never heard of the term "legat" either?
Whom among the CIA, NSA, and FBI do you think is responsible for investigating computer crime in the US?
.... when it comes to any three letter agency from any bloody where in the world or any police forces or even those police forces with insanely bloated egos calling themselves law enforcement, because "WE DON'T FUCKING BELIEVE YOU, FUCKING PROVE IT" and the court of law is our appointed place for them to prove it (yes it has to be shouted because it has become all too blatantly obvious that they are not paying attention to basic required principles of law and justice).
You've got this wrong in multiple respects. Relations between the US and North Korea aren't governed by a court, so any talk of a court being involved in evaluating this is nonsense. Second, courts aren't simply "judges of fact" but are where the law is applied. The application of the law involves individual rights, limits on how evidence is obtained, limits on what can be considered in judging legal culpability. None of that applies to North Korea.
You seem have fave fallen for the common mistake of believing that nothing is a fact unless a court of law says it is. That is nonsense. Courts often have little or nothing to say about many imortant issues in society, including those of major political importance such as international relations.
You view is popular, but simply wrong.
The FBI and intelligence community are competent to evaluate and pass judgment on the evidence in this matter, and no court is either required to even welcome. This is not a matter for the courts.
Some of them do. Not all of them fit your template.
I used to have a procedural toaster which cooked the bread until it became toast. Then I upgraded to a much more elegant OO toaster, which simply sends a "toast yourself" message to the bread. Unfortunately, bagels don't have a self.toast() method, so i still have to have a backup procedural toaster to handle the older API.
Man does that bring back some memories..... Borland used to make some truly awesome toasters, what ever happened to them?
Say "twenty-three-skiddoo" to logout.
