Tamara is back from China, and the gang discusses the European Court of Justice decision in Schrems and whether it knocked the surveillance state back on its heels. We talk about whether Russia is a resurgent power in the Middle East. And we discuss my little campaign to get Russian President Vladimir Putin to fight me. Plus, in our Object Lessons segment, I talk about how I won a prestigious award I won from "The National Security Establishment."

It's this week's Rational Security.
