Saw this posted in the stickied thread but thought it warranted its own thread

quote:

The U.S. has intercepted encrypted communications believed to have originated in Iran that may serve as "an operational trigger" for "sleeper assets" outside the country, according to a federal government alert sent to law enforcement agencies.

The alert, reviewed by ABC News, cites "preliminary signals analysis" of a transmission "likely of Iranian origin" that was relayed across multiple countries shortly after the death of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Khamenei, the supreme leader of Iran, was killed in a U.S.-Israeli attack on Feb. 28. The intercepted transmission was encoded and appeared to be destined for "clandestine recipients" who possess the encryption key, the kind of message intended to impart instructions to "covert operatives or sleeper assets" without the use of the internet or cellular networks. It's possible the transmissions could "be intended to activate or provide instructions to prepositioned sleeper assets operating outside the originating country," the alert said.

They could try pulling an Oct 7 attack here in the States.

They must have been snoozing pretty good if they weren't awake yet.

I wouldn’t want it reported day of I guess.

Seems like if we intercepted a secret signal to do terrorist things and then we told everyone we did, wouldn’t that signal the terrorists to go to the terrorist things they were waiting on the secret signal for?

Iran/others will absolutely attack the US, and soon.....thanks to Biden open borders!

There is almost no possible way to stop what is coming....it already happened in Austin.
Deportations must continue at a rapid rate!

As awful as it would be it might be the wakeup call the average American needs to recognize we need stricter immigration policy.

I love ABC picking this up like they have some scoop. They stole it from Youtube. Here is a video posted about it 8 days ago:



It was a shortwave broadcast on 7910 khz if I remember correctly. Its a guy speaking Farsi repeating random numbers which means it's a coded message.

Yeah, they should try attacking Ford Park in Shreveport on a Saturday picnic day with all the brothers. They might regret it.

If you didn't already know or believe, this should show nothing that says it is encrypted is truly safe from being read.

The US attack on Iran has been in the news for 10 days now.

Why would any "sleeper cell" be waiting on an activation signal?

News of the success of the initial attack should have been signal enough.

Al-Qaeda are our friends now.

Besides, they are Sunni, not Shia.

Not if it is a one-time-pad, which it almost certainly was if it was broadcast on shortwave radio. No one can break one-time-pads, it is mathematically impossible.

What a stupid narrative. We have had Muslims here for a long time....ever hear of 9/11?!?

Blaming Biden for the consequences of bombing Iran? I think not.

We all have to own this shite..step up.
