BAD HARDWARE WEEK

The Pentagon no longer trusts its own chips. !
Because the US microchip industry has shifted in recent years from manufacturing to mainly designing chips, the Department of Defense is increasingly having to buy its microchips from makers abroad, particularly in east Asia. Now the Pentagon's Defense Science Board fears that if such microchips are incorporated into advanced weapons systems, such as GPS-guided smart bombs, adversaries might be able to tamper with the chips' electronics in the factory to disrupt US military systems at critical times.

So, whom to believe we ordinary mortals, when security of our own data is in question:

1. The USA government ? No
Well, hardly because it is just catched in illegal private data stealing and wiretapping. Though with justified reason because President personally gave that order in order to protect our democracy, our freedom and way of life.
Thanks only to that, recently were arrested some islamic terrorists that have been in a deep planning of attacks on Florida (where is President's brother a governor, who already helped President to become a unique President with minority of votes in 2000) and Chicago Sears Towers (though without any weapons evidence, kind of verbal terrorism). Hell frozen do you see how those terrorist are dangerous. We lost 3000 lifes and hundreds of of $ billions in Iraq and we are still not able to find even single piece of WMD. The only drawback I see is that those islamic terrorists above are not Muslims at all, but sort of Jahve whitnesses. Well, we shouldn't be so hairsplitting. Give our government some needed confidence and support.

2. Intel fabs and design centers in Israel
Yes, that is where we all should believe in, actually we have them already located in Haifa and Kiryat Gat. But wait a minute, wait a minute please. Why the only world's superpower, the USA, is not able to design and produce confident chips at domestic ground itself? What !, you don't believe in Great Israel that rules the world??. All those similar are only terrorists and anti semites.

3. AMD?
No,no, obviously not to AMD. They have a fab in Germany. But, they build a state of art 45nm fab in NY! Eh yes, but not in promised land Israel, like Intel is doing.
Beside, that might be easily just only a security mask. Osama was too so close (due to Michael Moore) to President before he became minority Presdent with a small voting help of his brother. Thus, we all have to be extremely suspicious towards AMD, in a goal of achieving ultimate national security.

May be you will disagree with thoughts above, but picture above is the oldest known caricature of English Jew of the year 1277, originated near Colchester. On his upper garmets is fixed the English form of Jewish badge. Something that is now the logo of Intel's CORE DUO. Yes, that is the confident chip sign that we all have to follow. It couldn't pass in 1277 ,but could after the year 1977, in Intel dominated PC era.
