NEWZ057 It’s Ugly and it is Annoying

Chemical Weapons; US Military Aid; South Sudan; Poland Plants; Russian Bank Terms; Brookings; Lavabit; Silent Circle

This week we start off with the massive story of possible chemical weapons use in Syria. From there we go over who benefits from US Military Aid to Egypt. South Sudan faces their biggest crisis ever as a very young nation. In Poland the plan is to build two illegal coal power plants. While over in Russia a man has outsmarted the bank by writing his own terms of service. Our NEWZ Source of the week is the oldest think tank in Washington DC. Rounding off today we get into the messy world of encryption and email.
