Gen Petreus briefly collapses at at Senate hearing on Afghanistan

[Peter Lemkin]

Obviously, something is 'cooking' in this part of the world for the CIA.....I'm sure it isn't something we'd consider welcome or nice. I posted it, as I think the US Press didn't report this 'trip'. It could just be a coincidence, but the Czech Parliament is JUST poised to pass a bill that makes it mandatory for all phone companies and internet providers to keep complete records and details of all communications/connections/activity/connectivity/etc. of all that goes on in the CZ and from here to X and from X to here for six months [I'm sure the six months is bull - forever]. According to reports this information can be demanded by the secret police, the normal police, the courts and other officials. Worse than most any other country, I'd say...time to go...long, long time to go from here...for many reasons. This, for me, is the last straw.

Telephone service providers may have to keep data on their clients' locations and usage for six months, according to an amendment to the Electronic Communications Act, which is now in its final reading in Parliament. If passed, the law would require telephone and internet providers to record who communicated with whom, for how long and where. The data could then be requested by the police, the state prosecutor, military police, intelligence agency, the central bank or the courts.
