I’ve read several news stories talking about the CIA’s attempts at negotiations with the Israeli government, parallel with the US State Department’s incredibly brazen charades, lies, coverups, and stonewalling. I’ve heard a couple times that the CIA has been actually attempting to move things back toward the status quo.
Now I see they’ve trotted out Obama’s CIA director to go on CBS Sunday Morning to talk about Israel’s terror attacks on Lebanon and directly call it terrorism. That’s got to be coordinated with the current agency, and comes across as very intentional signaling. Matthew Miller is basically acting like nothing happened, while the CIA is publicly calling Israel a terrorist state.
My question is why? What are their incentives here? Are these stories just PR bullshit by the CIA? What does the CIA stand to lose in an all-out regional war, that makes them willing to go around the President and apparently make the only real efforts to negotiate?
They know America is going to get some serious blowback following Bibi off a cliff. The pager reveal has inevitably left questions of how deep and wide spread is it really?
I remember when Vault 7 and Snowden leaks came out they said something along the lines of man in the middle planting physical chips in electronics that the manufacturer didn’t know about. Between the factory and shipping. Back doors and such. If Pissreal is willing to do shit that exposes things and alters markets such as fuck anything from Taiwan, or create panic in major market sectors where the CIA / NSA / FBI
loses a good portion of their own intel network in the processes that might make them hit the “hold on there good buddy let’s not get carried away”. Who knows what else Bibi would expose that’s out there in his arrogance and hubris?
People around the world are now asking what else is there? How far does / could it go? Phones are now made with sealed cases where you can not conviently pop out the battery and see the innards of the device. Right to repair is made harder on many more things all the time. Makes it much more easy for an attack like this just waiting. Israel didn’t just terrorize Lebanon.
Yeah that tracks, the former CIA director actually emphasized the supply chain infiltration aspects. They’re really worried about the world switching to China
