Your government is keeping you safe from suicide bombing Orcs and insurgent Night elves.

Be careful who you frag. Having eliminated all terrorism in the real world, the U.S. intelligence community is working to develop software that will detect violent extremists infiltrating World of Warcraft and other massive multiplayer games, according to a data-mining report from the Director of National Intelligence.

The Reynard project will begin by profiling online gaming behavior, then potentially move on to its ultimate goal of "automatically detecting suspicious behavior and actions in the virtual world."

You have got to be kidding me!

I will admit that I have in fact played this game a few years ago.

My brother was a huge fan (he even met "women" on line that he flirted with), and he talked me into setting up an account. I did not last very long because much of the game, though sort of fun, requires that you cooperate with other maladjusted basement dwellers to accomplish several time wasting goals. I am not really that much of a team player, especially when members of the team have to sign off in the middle of a battle because their mom wants to check her e-mail.

But I do have to agree that WOW is rife with terrorists. There are "terrorists" that use cheat codes to make themselves virtually invincible. "Terrorists" that stand by a spawning point killing your character repeatedly to build their experience points at your expense. And "terrorists" who will use "magic" to take away half of your energy while you are serving as a tank leaving your party vulnerable and causing your team to fail.

However I also believe that these "terrorists" are mostly pimply faced fourteen year olds who sit for hours in front of a computer developing hunched shoulders and eyestrain while devouring snack foods and sugary soft drinks. They are really much too busy fantasizing that they are powerful sorcerers and unbeatable paladins while only signing out to empty their bladders or masturbate to the latest Hannah Montana video to be of any danger to the United States of America.
