An aggressor nation or extremist group could gain control of critical switches and derail passenger trains, or trains loaded with lethal chemicals.

You know, as director of the CIA, I got an awful lot of intelligence about all the horrible things that could go on across the world.

Lethal injection is the only method being used now, for all practical purposes. The chemicals are almost the same in all the states, and they're being challenged in all the states.

At the moment, we queue with passenger trains. It takes about 48 hours to get from Mumbai to Delhi, a distance of 1,400 kilometers...This should come down to about 16 hours.

China is a major power in the Pacific and I think we are dealing with some common threats in that region: the whole issue of Korea and the stability of Korea, the whole issue of nuclear proliferation, the whole issue of providing free access to our ships that are operating in that area.
