Zeynep at Under The Same Sun points out the US government's latest attempts to get us all killed. And by "us" I mean "all mankind." As Zeynep says, it's increasingly difficult to tell if whether we're being monstrously offensive by accident, or on purpose.

Zeynep here also provides contact information for the Israeli government, and urges everyone to write/call them right now about the rearrest of Mordechai Vanunu.
