A laptop recovered from a flaming Jeep used to attack a Scottish airport indicates that the occupants were determined to kill, a prosecutor said Friday.
For a second day, prosecutor Jonathan Laidlaw outlined the case against Bilal Abdulla, 29, and Mohammed Asha, 28. Each faces two counts of conspiring to murder and cause explosions outside a London nightclub, near a West End bus stop and inside Glasgow International Airport in June 2007. They deny all charges.
A hacker broke into a federal Homeland Security Department telephone system during the weekend and racked up about $12,000 in calls to the Middle East and Asia.
The hacker made more than 400 calls on a Federal Emergency Management Agency voice-mail system Saturday and Sunday, according to FEMA spokesman Tom Olshanski. FEMA is the principal government agency for helping victims of natural disasters.
The agency is part of Homeland Security, which in 2003 put out a warning about such a vulnerability.

I'm not convinced by the suggestion that there is a causal link, but Immanuel Wallerstein's piece in Monthly Review is worth considering.
