The UK
and US are to carry out "war game" cyber attacks on each other as
part of a new joint defence against online criminals. The first exercise, a
staged attack on the financial sector, will take place later this year, Downing Street said. The "unprecedented"
arrangement between the two countries was announced by Prime Minister David
Cameron ahead of talks with US President Barack Obama. The two men discussed a
range of other issues, including counter-terrorism. They are holding a press
conference in the Oval Office of The White House after talks lasting about an
hour. Mr Cameron has previously said in relation to cyber attacks that there
should be no "means of communication" which "we cannot
read". He is expected to talk to the US president about getting
companies such as Google and Facebook to allow governments to view encrypted
messages. http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-politics-30842669 BBC
The meeting
between Cameron and Obama took place on Jan.15, on the very day the Sun entered
sidereal Capricorn. Shown here is the
chart for this important event drawn for Washington
DC . Notice the skewed Grand Cross
straddling the meridian. Here Uranus [13ar] is conjunct the IC [20ar] and the asteroid Arachne [22ar]. Since Arachne [1] is about webs,
Arachne-Uranus together is about
computer networks including the internet. Opposite this combination on the MC
is the TNP Zeus is linked with the military and by association with warfare. Finally
Uranus in Aries square Pluto in Capricorn represents a struggle between the
freedom of the individual and the authoritarian power of the State so that we
have in the chart all the elements that make up news story.
