fuck goes the idea of plotting your landmines for safe troop movement and disarming post-conflict so as not to pose a danger to civilian populations.
Sure, you can flood a field with sheep or use any of those new funky weapons what spray over an area and detonate mines, but still, this is just somewhat worrying.

to Coast of Yemen, no, they hardly ever are, but you can at least try and make them as unlikley as possible to cause mass injury.
And for above, uhm... for the troops of the army that lays the landmines, so you can map where they are?

The latest generations of 'smart' landmines are really very clever.
They build in lifespans etc, which disable the mines after a set period (granted, the explosive remains active, but the trigger doesn't).
The anti tank mines are genius - they can tell the difference between a British Challenger CR2 and a Russian T60 (or whatever) and only go off if an 'enemy' tank drives over it. It can recognise the engine note apparently.
Also, anti-personnel mines aren't designed to kill. Tactically, if you injure someone, it takes 3 people out of the squad, because 2 people need to carry him. You can argue the ethics of this till the cows come home, but modern mines are a lot safer than the old ones.
Also - There are mine field clearing vehicles now (couldn't find the video on youtube) that fires the equivalent of an enormous string of chinese crackers across a mine field. It's then detonated, and any mines in the ground will be set off, rendering the ground safe again.
I'm not one of those military hardware geeks (freaks), I just had a talk about it when I was in the Cadets at school.
(, Sun 1 Mar 2009, 10:57, Reply)
Let's take that lifespan business as an example. The best advertised failure rate for the disarming mechanism I've seen for FASCAM mines is 4%. That's the manufacturer's figure and it's based on optimal conditions. Even if it's true, I don't find it particularly reassuring to know that 1 in 25 land mines will still be live after their expiry date.
I would be even more sceptical of the claim to be able to differentiate between targets. It may well be true that they never detonate when a Challenger passes over them, but I wonder just how many different tractors or school buses they've tried these things out on.
Suppliers of military hardware have a long and distinguished history of over-stating their products' effectiveness, and there's no reason to believe that they've become any more honest recently.

Would you prefer 1 in 25 land mines going off, or 24 in 25 going off? They're not perfect, but they are designed to injure people/blow up vehicles.
They're pretty nasty things in general, but they serve a purpose in war, and you've got to win it before you can worry about whether your kids are going to be walking over them in years to come...

What an interesting development.

When you have ad block on it suppresses anything loading from Google (in this case). All that have done is put a background image in the space where the google ads are, so when you have adblock you see the background image, rather than the ads that usually cover it. It's the sites image, not google.

is to have them running from flash programs which are almost impossible for most ad blockers to spot at this current time. That;s why you;re getting popups.
