U.S. Edition

The "Flame" virus, the most complex computer bug ever discovered, has been lurking for years inside Iranian government computers, spying on the country's officials.
In a statement posted on its website on Monday, the Iranian National Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT) said it discovered Flame after "multiple investigations" over the past few months.
The Iranian CERT team said it believes there is a "close relation" between Flame two previous cyber attacks on Iran, known as the Stuxnet and Duqu computer worms. Stuxnet is widely believed to have been launched by either the U.S. or Israel (or both countries).
This isn't traditional war. The Internet has leveled the playing field, allowing governments that would never launch military attacks on one another to target one another in cyberspace.
"In warfare, when a bomb goes off it detonates; in cyberwarfare, malware keeps going and gets proliferated," said Roger Cressey, senior vice president at security consultancy Booz Allen Hamilton, at a Bloomberg cybersecurity conference held in New York last month.
"Once a piece of malware is launched in wild, what happens to that code and its capability?" he added. "Things like Stuxnet are being reverse-engineered."

I would challenge ANYONE blaming Israel for the USS Liberty incident to explain the tremendous gains Israel got from it that could justify the tremendous risks it took by DELIBERATELY attacking the US military ship. Good luck!
Indra... Apparently, you can not distinguish between the State of Israel and American Jews. It seems that you believe that ANY Jew is an Israeli. By the same token ANY African American is an African agent in the US. Now you may start counting the African American criminals and their crimes. This should keep you busy for some time...
Young Wolf....I know exactly what you talk about....trouble is these blind mothers haven't got a clue because they've been so PROPAGANDIZED they genuflect to Israel without having a clue how barbaric the GOI is...because no US MSM regularly covers their hideous brutality....but that's no excuse, of course...you can read reports online daily ....but these folks are TRAITORS to the US and our Constitution. Ignorance is no excuse for these numbskulls ....and all they've got to offer is foul curses.
The Towel Heads are safe. It doesn't run on pirated Windows 98. Hahahahahahahaha
Anything Israel uses to spy on Iran, you can bet, will be used to spy on the US. Israel has the largest and most sophisticated espionage network of anybody in the US.
Then its a good thing we have nothing to fear from Israel. In fact, we can probably borrow their skills for the real cyber-war with Russia and China,
Proboly not, Israel peddles stolen US intelligence.
Refer to indras post, its accurate. Larry Franklin committed treason on behalf of Israel.
Exactly Mr wolf.
Israel had been caught stealing both US gov, and private business information.
They are certainly not an ally.
You are naive. For political and religious reasons, the Israeli military has access to most of this nation's best military technologies. They willingly trade these technologies with the Russians and especially the Chinese by repackaging these technologies into nominally "Israeli" made systems which they sell to the Chinese and the Russians. Aside from keeping their engineers gainfully employed and earning Israel a nice income, these sales are Israel's only way to curry favor with the Chinese and Russians, trying to convince them not to sell their best military hardware to Israel's Middle Eastern enemies. Israel trades in the only thing of value to China in particular, and that is US military technology, which saves China a great deal of time and money trying to catch up to the US. In addition, Israel has knowledge of US radars which they sell to the Chinese, allowing China to develop effective radar warning receivers and jammers they otherwise would not be able to make, absent the ability to gain an understanding of our radar's wave forms. Israeli engineers sold their skills to the Chinese on the J-10 fighter project, built a plant in China to build Israeli designed air to air missiles and transferred seeker tech to China for more advanced infrared missiles. Israel is no friend of the US.
clever Paul sez: " its a good thing we have nothing to fear from Israel. In fact, we can probably borrow their skills for the real cyber-war with Russia and China,"
AU CONTRAIRE ......as we approach the 45th memorial of the day the Israeli air force and Navy attacked the unique Intel ship USS LIBERTY...the 2 hour daylight attack that nearly sank the Liberty in international waters...after they dumped Napalm on sunning sailors on deck....machine gunned the communication antenna and then sent in their navy to send Torpedos into its hull killing 34 and maiming 172 more including the Commander.. "It was a case of mistaken Identity...we thought it was a 1929 Egyptian mule hauler...ooops. the Israelis said. Then there were the million documents that Pollard stole and SOLD to Israel...and someone else mentioned Steve Rosen, and Larry Franklin who wore a wire to record the AIPAC employees who wanted to pass classified info to Israel. Israel ....if THIS is our "friend" with whom we are being BOUND by CONGRESS to again, go to war, to kill Iranians because they are trying to modernize...as Mubarak was planning in Egypt and as King Abdullah in Jordan was planning...because of Israel's desire to be the HEGEMON in the region....after TAKING highly enriched uranium from the NUMEC plant in Pennsylvania in the 50s/60s. Yah, sure we can trust them....they are deeply enmeshed in the US, state by state, in BONDS invested in pension funds...AFL CIO funds, commerce and trade....and your Congress....with such friends who needs enemies?
Wow, all those fuckers are Israeli citizens?
