Middle East Running Iranian threat news and discussion thread

[Husky_Khan]

The mysterious explosions in Iran continue... over twenty dead, dozens more wounded. A half dozen incidents. Some say the Nantz Nuclear Facility site explosion could've set back the Iranian Nuclear Weapons program back by over a year.

Trump and Israel must be happy. The nukes are being delayed.

The Dulles Brothers have risen from the grave.

Present day CIA would have messed up the operation and anyway they are too busy overthrowing Trump, so this would be Mossad and Saudi money.

I wonder if this designed merely to delay nuclear weapons on Iran’s part or to provoke the Iranians into rash action.

Because this sabotage exerts a greater deal of psychological pressure more than the material destruction or relatively small loss of life. The Iranian government may feel pressured to respond either for itself or do to public pressure. In the latter case-perhaps the aim is to convince the Iranian population their government is too weak or unable to react to attack. Thus generating unrest.

Going to have to partically aggree.

The CIA has a long history of fucking up even basic shit, too much emphasis on tech and not enough on the human side of things.

Emphasis on tech means cashflow towards political backers, kickbacks, favors owned, the works... Political corruption at it's "finest".

And of course there were good reasons why the abbreviation was explained as "Cocaine Imports Agency".

Thats why the NSA is the best agency!

This post was sponsored by the CIA is trash gang

 

[Arch Dornan]

Surely every intelligence agency has their own embarrassments and skeletons in the closet?

The CIA just have more exposure by the media and their fuck ups?

FBI and CIA, NSA has only had 2 leaks taken out of context.

When I checked the history of the NSA it's controversies concern merely information scandals and authority oversight.

Ah it's the one Snowden worked for.

Not as flashy as government sanctioned activities involving drugs, guns or advisors.

Iranian Hackers Accidentally Exposed Their Training Videos (40 GB) Online

An Iranian state-sponsored hacking group accidentally exposed roughly 40 GB of hacking training videos on the Internet.

Not a good year for them.

@Zachowon might be good for your reference depending on your career.

 

[Zachowon]

Thank you for this.

 

[Remi-Boi]

@Random Username Now we can learn how to hack, We'll use this well supplied training videos to uhh.... hack Iran... Thanks Iran!

Which is still objectionable; but yeah, the NSA really comes across like some small-time creepy voyeur, compared to the much larger profile FBI and CIA.

Small time at first appearance but information gathering is a very valued market.

They're just not flashy to what the FBI and CIA do.

They're already getting fucked by who caused their facilities to explode those training videos are better used as reference to update any security against hacking.

The Fading Memory of Soleimani Exposes Iran’s Sclerotic Regime

The way a regime icon is remembered reveals much about the state of the regime itself. General Qassem Soleimani’s fast-fading memory in Iran, especially in Tehran province, exposes a sclerotic elite

Done so much for Jihad and yet so quick to be forgotten?

The virus might have something to do with that and being an asshole everytime there's a protest you tell your men to take potshots with live rounds.

 

[wellis]

Honestly, Iran never struck me as that much much "moderate" compared to the Sunni Islamic fundamentalist nations that comprise many modern Muslim nations.

Even the "secular" Arab nations are fundies when you start to think on it.

 

[Typhonis]

How secular are the Muslims in Indonesia?
