[X] Things that make you go hmmm….
Abolhassan Firouzabadi, former secretary of Iran’s Supreme Council for Cyberspace, told local media Iran suffered a cyber attack. Firouzabadi also added that threat actors stole sensitive information from targeted infrastructure. “Nearly all three branches of Iran’s government – the judiciary, the legislature, and the executive branch – have been hit by heavy cyberattacks, and their information was stolen,” said Firouzabadi, the former secretary of Iran’s Supreme Council of Cyberspace, was quoted as saying by the Iran International. “Our nuclear facilities have also been targeted by cyberattacks, as well as networks like fuel distribution, municipal networks, transportation networks, ports, and similar sectors. These are just part of a long list of various areas across the country that have been attacked,” he added. Iran’s Civil Aviation Organization banned pagers and walkie-talkies on flights following sabotage attacks in Lebanon involving these devices, which killed 39 Hezbollah members. “Iran’s civil aviation has banned carrying pagers and walkie-talkies on all flights, the spokesman for the Civil Aviation Organization of Iran said. Jafar Yazerlo, cited by local media.” reported Agenzia Nova. “The decision was made more than three weeks after sabotage attacks against members of the Iranian-allied Lebanese armed group Hezbollah in Lebanon, which saw pagers and walkie-talkies explode, killing at least 39 people.” | |

| #19 Anon1, the entire Al Qaeda Shura Council and about three quarters of Osama Bin Laden’s family moved to Iran immediately following 9/11. They were there sheltered by the government of Iran — and most are still there, still being sheltered by the Iranian government. And it’s not Saudi Arabia that wants war with Iran — the Saudis simply don’t have the manpower to fight a serious war — but Iran causing problems. In 1987 Shiite pilgrims from Iran rioted during the hajj, causing a stampede that killed at least 400, half of them Iranians, following which Iranians attacked the Saudi and Kuwaiti embassies. Then starting in 2012 Iran instigated protests among Saudi Arabia’s Shiite population in the Eastern Province, leading to years of crackdowns. Following that Iran instigated the Houthi uprising in Yemen, which quickly led to Houthi raids and missile attacks on Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia’s strongest response was to block Iran from partaking in the Hajj for a few years. |

| #18 clearly the Saudis want a war with Iran and have managed to manipulate the US warmachine. Otherwise why would Israel be targeting Iran instead of Qatar, looking for every reason and the kitchen sink for why they are to blame for Sunni Muslim Brotherhood violence. it seems to me an extension of the old problem. Britain installed "Their Man" in Jordan/Iraq after World War 1 since they couldn't be in the empire game anymore and that was the Arab Muslim hashemites, with the Saudis also being "their Man in Arabia" Iran was not "their man" and has allied with Russia/Syria axis. so therefore they must be fought But for us the common people, Islam is at war with us and it was the Muslim Brotherhood that did October 7, not Iran. It's the Muslim Brotherhood that has infiltrated our societies to destroy them from within. The Iranian theocracy is itself a problem because Islam took over. But they haven't got the reach the Muslim Brotherhood has. Al Jazeera broadcasts here. Muslim Brotherhood "Islamophobia" narrative is here. They are the ones - it's them! This is like having Sunni Islamists from Saudi fly planes into buildings on 9/11 then blaming the secular Sadam in Iraq who crushed the Islamists.... and getting rid of him. And getting Islamic State. |

| #11 Stuxnet A combined effort of USA and Israel. So this was the plan proposed by our military visit I believe last week. I expect Russian developments in related efforts. Guaranteed efforts now maximized. |

| #8 If you use bootlegged Microsoft software with Russian cyber security software, you might get hacked. I always thought Stuxnet was a master stroke and now they're doing it again. Cool. |

| #6 Israel plays dirty. I LIKE that! Now cause EVERYTHING to crash -- air traffic control, nuclear systems, ship control, whatever else they can find back doors to. And yes, zero out bank balances. In fact, crash the entire banking system. If that reaches other countries. . . oops! |
