Cybersecurity and CyberWar discusses the cybersecurity issues that challenge everyone: politicians wrestling with everything from cybercrime to online freedom; generals protecting the nation from new forms of attack while planning new cyberwars; business executives defending firms from once unimaginable threats; lawyers and ethicists building new frameworks for right and wrong. In Cybersecurity and CyberWar, New York Times best-selling author Peter W. Singer and noted cyber expert Allan Friedman team up to provide the kind of easy-to-read, deeply informative resource book that has been missing on this crucial issue of 21st century life. The book is structured around the key question areas of cyberspace and its security: how does it work and why does it matter? Also discussed are the important (and entertaining) issues and characters of cybersecurity, from the "Anonymous" hacker group and the Stuxnet computer virus to the new cyber units of the Chinese and US militaries.

Here's a fascinating documentary about famous Japanese Writer and Nationalist Yukio Mishima. This BBC produced documentary about Yukio Mishima highlights the many known major aspects of his life and personality. Mishima was a pen name he adopted en route to his chosen life as a writer. He eventually became recognized as one of Japan's most prolific post-World War II writers, producing stories, plays and novels. He became tortured by his bisexuality/homosexuality and shyness around people as a young man. Both of these played a role in his work as did many other eventful occurrences throughout his life. Mishima had an admirable dedication to the forgotten samurai way of life and ideals, which later turned into an unhealthy obsession, culminating in the storming of a general's garrison on November 25, 1970. It was Mishima's way of combining beauty, art, and action; ultimately the garrison forced to assemble and listen to his speech on that day rejected him. Mi

On September 16, 2007, Blackwater military contractors shot at Iraqi civilians killing 17 and injuring 20 in Nisour Square, Baghdad. The fatalities occurred while a Blackwater Personal Security Detail (PSD) was clearing the way for a convoy of US State Department vehicles transporting diplomats to a meeting in western Baghdad with officials of the United States Agency for International Development. The killings outraged Iraqis and strained relations between Iraq and Washington. Blackwater guards said that the convoy was ambushed and that they fired at the attackers in defense of the convoy. The Iraqi government and Iraqi police investigator Faris Saadi Abdul allege that the killings were unprovoked. The next day, Blackwater Worldwide's license to operate in Iraq was temporarily revoked. The US State Department has said that "innocent life was lost" and according to the Washington Post, a military report appeared to corroborate "the Iraqi government's content

But many are worried this aggressive posture will lead to a repeat of the mistakes of the past. "As I don't know the purpose and intention of unidentified aircraft approaching our air space, I always become tense", says Sho Yoshida, a fighter pilot with Japan's Self Defence Forces. This unified military outfit was formed following the Allied occupation of Japan at the end of WW2, and is constitutionally restricted to defending the nation. But now a heightening feud with China over the disputed Senkaku Islands, as well as the country's proximity to a wildly unpredictable

Seguir regras as vezes tem um preço bem caro! Quando se tem uma legislação dentro de um país em conflito as vezes é complicado que os agentes de segurança pública exerçam seus trabalhos dentro da lei, principalmente quando uma polícia e uma força armada de segurança tem que tomar conta do governo, servir a população e travar uma guerrilha contra uma força fantasma. No caso de um grupo terrorista como o Boko Haram, que está bem armado, e age com genocídios, torturas, amedrontando a população e não tendo uma frente regular diante das forças armadas, seguir as regras é difícil para conter a violência. Neste cenário de guerra irregular, atuar com uma força privada pode ter um maior êxito. O governo Nigeriano ao contratar a STTEP International visando sanar o problema do avanço do Boko Haram, buscou ter o treinamento da antiga Executive Outcomes, e ter um melhor equipamento. Conseguiu com êxito conter o Boko Haram de continuar seguindo em frente e tomando território. "South
