Stealth drones & Pakistan – Security compromised

CIA flew stealth drones into Pakistan to monitor bin Laden house

…
The aircraft allowed the CIA to glide undetected beyond the boundaries that Pakistan has long imposed on other U.S. drones, including the Predators and Reapers that routinely carry out strikes against militants near the border with Afghanistan.
…
The drones are also equipped to eavesdrop on electronic transmissions, enabling U.S. officials to monitor the Pakistani response.
…
The assault and the months of surveillance leading up to it involved venturing into some of Pakistan’s most sensitive terrain. Because of the compound’s location — near military and nuclear facilities — it was surrounded by Pakistani radar and other systems that could have detected encroachment by Predators or other non-stealth surveillance planes, according to U.S. officials.
…

The security repercussions of this development are worrying and far reaching. US drones operating deep inside Pakistan without Pakistan’s knowledge. The location and scale of the security breach encompassing a wide array of fatal weaknesses. Needless to say, USA’s spying wasn’t a one-off operation. Unquestionably, they have also carried out deep and detailed recon and spying of our sensitive locations and military assets. We had CIA operatives roaming freely inside Pakistan courtesy traitors like Rehman Malik and co. giving free visas + arms licenses to everyone and their brother. Add to that the local assets being cultivated by these operatives for intelligence gathering (i.e. espionage) and other dubious activites inside Pakistan. Guys like Raymond Davis killing with impunity, talking to (who?) people in Waziristan, shooting people in broad daylight, being in possession of photos of military bunkers on the Pakistan-India border and so on and on. Add to all this, the stealth drones et al. And you have a situation where Pakistan Army and ISI are now in the dark on so many activities of grave significance and which also put Pakistan’s strategic assets under threat from USA (<– and its proxies) . The intelligence and security data compromised means USA has a unique trove of classified national security data which given USA's track record, it will not hesitate to use for ulterior purposes either directly or indirectly via India. A colossal security breach courtesy -the traitors who allowed USA on our soil and -the incompetents who then failed to do damage control by neutralizing the boots in Pakistan as quickly as possible.

What price will we have to pay?

“…Well, plainly, the U.S. and its allies are not going to want governments which are responsive to the will of the people. If that happens, not only will the U.S. not control the region, but it will be thrown out. So that’s obviously an intolerable result…”

US unveils new GPS for troops

New GPS device for troops unveiled

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., Feb. 25 (UPI) — Rockwell Collins of the United States has unveiled a smaller Global Position System receiver for use by troops in the field.

The MicroGRAM GPS receiver, it said, is 90 percent smaller than the earlier version of its Miniature Precision Lightweight GPS Receiver Engine SAASM, enabling equipment such as hand-held radios, ruggedized field computers, laser range finders, gun scopes and small unmanned aircraft to be equipped with secure GPS capability.

“Today’s warfighters must be prepared to find their way in unfamiliar environments, along with having precision accuracy in their weapons systems,” said Bob Haag, vice president and general manager of Precision Strike and Navigation Products for Rockwell Collins. “Our new MicroGRAM opens up a whole new world of secure, military GPS technology for equipment that previously could not have it.

“Before now, this equipment could only use commercial GPS technology, which does not have the required military security features that warfighters need to avoid enemy threats.”

The company said MicroGRAM’s unique security features are the result of designing a rugged product that leverages Rockwell Collins’ strong legacy in providing Selective Availability Anti-Spoofing Module capabilities.

Engineered to minimize its footprint and power usage, the MicroGRAM has been optimized to allow rapid acquisition of the GPS satellites when power is first supplied to it, Rockwell Collins said.

Alliance of War Criminals Incorporated

Good to know that US is keeping its puppet master happy by adding to US stockpiles on israeli occupied territory. After all, can’t be running the risk of being caught low on stockpiles when murder of innocent men, women and children is at hand.
“Washington’s staunch ally Israel could have access to the weaponry and ammunition in an emergency but only with US approval, said a defense official, who spoke on condition of anonymity.”
Real funny. Good one. Maybe they got mixed up and meant to say that US could have access to the stockpile in emergency but only with Mr. Zion’s approval. When every tom, dick and harry of US government and

Axis of Evil

The puppet masters, the puppets and the hired help.
While the inhuman face of israel was exposed afresh to the world due to the illegitmate entity’s heinous war crimes against Gaza and Palestinians, the US still remains firmly in the clutches of the zionists turning a blind eye to the litany of horrors committed by their “friends”. Not only in terms of diplomatic and foreign affairs, but in actual material terms the US is kept on a tight leash by the zionist puppeteers while the american public remains cosy in the illusion that they are friends and allies.

Got $26 – Hack a drone

8.30 …they plot, but Allah (also) plotteth; and Allah is the best of plotters.

Millions of dollars spent on drones and yet a $26 software which wasn’t even designed for military purpose puts the US to shame. The vulnerablility may be corrected but — a point to remember from military history — Continue reading →
