On the other hand China is the most obvious source of any cyber warfare or espionage. They have shown they can and will do it. So why not for this one? I think Israel would use one of the more trusted methods of bombing or assassination that is what they are known for and it has also the added benefit of showing your strength publicly as you point out yourself.

It depends on the structure of the organization. The characteristic of a organization like Microsoft that is organized in divisions is that the head-office manages it's divisions mostly on a financial level the software and architectural decisions are left up to the divisions.

You are reading the facts and the article thru a extremely right wing ideological glasses. You have distorted the facts from the article beyond believe. Also I hope that you are not in anyway a supporter of a Fascist regime like that of Somoza, that regime was more to blame for the revolutiuon than the sandinistas . As you can read in the article the revolution (not only the sandinistas where fighting like you seem to think) was bad for agricurtiral development like fighting and war in general is but when it was over it had recuperated.

I totally agree. I would go as far as saying it is Microsoft who is likely committing fraud here by trying to keep this under the cover. The most likely scenario is that they knew all along that it was flawed because it was so obvious. By releasing it anyway on the unsuspecting public borders on criminal behavior.

I thought libertarian and free-market organizations would have disbanded by now because of the bank deregulation and economic catastrophe. These opinions seem a bit dated and a bit out of touch today. But I guess there are all kinds of old fashioned ideologies still around like religions but do we really care about what they think of free software? So why do we care here?

Being opponent of the dead-penalty myself and not to condone any method it is a fact that the electric chair and the gas chamber as used in the U.S are a lot more cruel and painful than hanging. Especially the prisoners electrocuted on the electric chair sometimes have been screaming for minutes before they die.
