I agree that having RFID chips in IDs is a bad idea (Imagine a terrorist in Beirut checking his scanner "Hmm 5 Americans in the area.. let's go hunting!") but is a 'war drive' to read the RFID tags from the passports really useful? It's one of those "duh" things like a study trying to determine if bears **** in the woods.
Chiming in late here, but my thought is that war driving for RFID protects me. Plausible deniability and all that. "I didn't go to any of those places, my chip's been cloned, officer!" Rain chips on Beirut and dilute the target value, if that's a concern. Mark the natives for extra entertainment value. lizzz
