#1 Jihad terror is carried out in the East, but it is made in the West. The Muslim Students Association and CAIR should have been declared as terrorist associations before 2001. The fact that these koranimals are allowed to live in the West, gives al Qaeda a forward base.

#2 So shuffle the base arrangement around. Even if Google slips and doesn't blank out the photos, the photos will be out of date.

I'm surprised the photos are that recent.

#3 Google Earth photos are oooold so they are apparently not updated very often. The Google Map photo of my apartment is at least three years old.

#4 Spot on badinov! The google earth overheads are at least 5 years old where I live. NO new construction is shown. Google earth can be used for general 3D topographical information.

#5 they also don't cover most sensitive places in the US, I found. When in OK to visit Ft. Sill, north of Lawton, the photos are mysteriously "obscure". I'd hoped to pinpoint the Gunner's Hall, etc. where the family mtgs were to occur..no such luck :-)
