The whole point of this blog is to post things that I find interesting that you also might find interesting. This video is very interesting. It’s not often that I tune in for a 27 minute video on the internet but this was better than some Hollywood movies. The video is silent so you can watch it at work.

The video is a compilation of various security cameras around Dubai that seem to have caught ten men and one woman carrying out the assassination of a high level Hamas member, Mahmoud al-Mabhouh. It was posted by Wired.Com but I was unable to find it on YouTube (so you won’t be able to view the video in full screen mode).

You may be asking yourself, “What the heck does this have to do with technology?” For starters, many of the movements of the group were captured by hidden security cameras. The video also addresses, among other things, encrypted cellphone use, airport security and some type of very small, short-range handheld communication device. The assassination was carried out without any traces of evidence left in the hotel room and the victim was in his own hotel room with the door locked and chained when his body was found. No blood was found. You’ll have to watch the video to learn the apparent cause of death.

Here ya go…
