REVEALED: SECRET GOVERNMENT JOB OPPORTUNITIES FOR THIEVES!

This is for real. If you are a thief, you might just be in good hands for fat government pay checks soon. The hint has been dropped in a statement from a British Defence secretary recently. The easiest way to catch thieves is to use thieves, isn't it? That's the method governments may be considering soon and that's real good news for the bad guys and bad news for the good guys.

After attending a cabinet meeting with the British prime Minister at 10 Downing Street, the British Defence Secretary Philip Hammond made a public statement in which he betrayed a dirty move, a kind of 'necessary evil' the British Government is planning. But wait, there is sense in thinking that Hammond's unguarded statement has not only sold the British Government out, but has also exposed all governments everywhere including the one at Abuja. Now, here's the irony: this dirty approach is for the good of all of us.

Philip Hammond tells of a plan by the British Cyber Defence to launch cyber attacks against other countries. "Simply building cyber defences is not enough" he announced. "As in other domains of warfare, we also have to deter. Britain will build a dedicated capability to counterattack in cyberspace and if necessary to strike in cyber space".

Asked about the kind of people to use in the attacks, Hammond says he does not 'rule out' the possibility of recruiting professional hackers to do the job.

Of course, Britain is reacting against cyber attacks it has received from the governments of other countries (perhaps, China and Russia mostly). If other governments have already attacked Britain, then it seems very obvious that many criminals have already been smiling to their banks legitimately at government's expense. Really, every government has got its dirty jobs to be done, and they must be done by someone - the dirty person.

This is where the world is now. A new type of arms race is on, and the trend is that all governments will follow suit or risk annihilation.
