2009年12月14日出版的美国《防务新闻》周刊登载题为“美国空军的情报/监视/侦察(ISR):今日隐身无人机,明日F-22?”的文章,文章提到,美国蒂尔集团高级分析师史蒂夫-扎洛加认为,最近媒体关注的所谓“坎大哈之兽”(RQ-170神秘无人机)只是冰山一角,美国空军正在努力进行大规模的无人战斗机研发,这只是更大项目中的“一角”。

中国在流经西藏高原的八大河流积极建造大坝,已引起从巴基斯坦到越南诸多亚洲国家的批评,甚至咒骂,更成为中国与印度的主要争执点。某些分析家担心将来可能引发「水战」,但可能性不大,因为中国的某些邻国也在建造引起争议的水坝,「太大声」批评中国恐遭「伪善」之讥。
中国兴建大坝可能让位于河流下游某些邻国沿河地区淹水,象是印度东北部喜马拉雅峡谷河岸的村庄,泰国北部湄公河岸沿河地区。亚洲国家批评中国加速建坝,基本原因在于:可能引发自然灾难、使脆弱的生态更加恶化、把重要的水资源引走。
某些分析家担心此种发展可能引发「水战」,但其它分析家强烈认为不可能。不过,在这个全球人口最多、最「干渴」的地区重新画定河流的努力,正大规模进行,具有战略意义。
单在西藏高原的八大河流上,已建造或正兴建的就有将近20座大坝,设计或建议兴建的大坝,还有约40座。需要指明的是,打乱这个地区水流现状的国家,绝非只有中国,其它国家也在这样做,而且可能带来更恶劣的后果。由于中国的电力和水资源需求太庞大、它控制著河流的发源地,再加上政治影响力日增,因而成为各国抨击的箭靶。
