In a report by Shane Harris in Foreign Policy, he wrote:
For years, cybersecurity experts and government officials have warned
that the computer networks underpinning the U.S. air traffic control system could be penetrated by malicious hackers. President Barack Obama emphasized the threat in his first major address on national cybersecurity in 2009. The current air traffic control system remains vulnerable, but more modern aircraft also carry complex navigation and mechanical software, and in the future they will be connected to the air traffic system via new computer networks, making each individual airplane a potential vulnerable target.
The new government and industry information-sharing program is meant to defend “the entire system. It’s the airports, the [air traffic management] system, the supply chain, the airline manufacturers. There are a lot of attack surfaces there,” said Fred Schwien, the director of Homeland Security at Boeing, which is participating in the program.
To bring all sides together, a new information-sharing and analysis center will be built at a Transportation Security Administration facility near Ft. Meade, Md., the headquarters of the National Security Agency and U.S.
Cyber Command, which oversees military computer security. According to a presidential directive, Cyber Command also would be involved in responding to a cyber-attack on any critical infrastructure in the United States, including the air traffic control system.
U.S. officials said the TSA is leading the program in a partnership with the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, which oversees all American intelligence agencies, and the National Counterterrorism Center, which is currently the hub for information about potential threats to the aviation system from terrorists and hijackers.
Over the next decade, the federal government plans to roll out its so called NextGen system, which promises to reduce congestion in the skies and, hopefully, make air travel more efficient and less expensive. But NextGen will rely on global positioning satellites, which are vulnerable to computer hackers. Two years ago, researchers at the University of Texas at Austin demonstrated that they could commandeer the controls of a remote-piloted drone by tricking it with fake GPS coordinates.
Paul Rosenzweig, a cyber security expert and former Homeland Security official, wrote last year that the hackable GPS system poses a risk for commercial aviation. He said that to prevent against a catastrophe, air traffic controllers would have to use GPS that can recognize when they’re being fooled or that cross-check their position against internal navigations systems that aren’t connected to computer networks.
Need I say anymore?
All such systems have dual use. That is a given!
Please note that the proposed centre to prevent another MH 370 is to be located at a facility near Fort Mead, the Headquarters of NSA and the US Cyber Command.
Can anyone investigating the “disappearance” of MH 370 dare discount that this could be the compelling motive (a more compelling motive than the Freescale scenario) to launch the false flag operation which if I was the leader would codenamed it as “In Plain Sight” for not only would the code-name be appropriate in the circumstances, but more so, for the subsequent intelligence operations would be “Hidden In Plain Sight” in civilian airports!
And if you have been diligent and disciplined and followed my advice to read up on “Operation Northwood”, “Operation Gladio”, the “Lavron Affair” the “Sinking of USS Liberty”, the “Gulf of Tonkin Incident” etc. I am sure you would not now accuse me of being a conspiracy theorist, and or assert that the real world is not an ugly, evil and treacherous world but a bed of roses.
In peeling the Onion, I have submitted a compelling motive, better than any thus far offered (I stand to be corrected) by well researched and well intentioned analysts and for which I owed a debt of gratitude in that some of their arguments have set me thinking in other directions, one of which is the present deduction and conclusion.
However, we need to peel off more layers of the Onion. We need to identify the Mastermind of this brilliant false flag operation.
And even though one may denounce the operation as unconscionable and an
unforgivable crime, I would not hesitate to call the false flag operation brilliant in concept and highly imaginative in execution. But, I do hesitate to call it the perfect crime.
I take this attitude because I need to be objective and not be moved by bias, prejudice and emotions if I want to solve the “WHO?” in the “disappearance” of MH 370. The Master of this false flag operation is a professional whereas I am a mere amateur and therefore I need to be more diligent and as objective as I can be.
Have I missed any other clues?
Your next move, Master – Hiding in Plain Sight!
ADDENDUM
1. But, for the need to create public opinion for the acceptance of the new system for global civilian air traffic control and the agreement of governments, I would not have been able to connect the “Motive Link” (as identified aforesaid) to the other links in the Chain of Evidence.
2. Important Note: To avoid any misunderstanding.
In the above analysis, I have stated the primary Objectives/Motive and the immediate and apparent beneficiaries. But, in many false flag operations, there would be more than one party (it could another domestic or foreign party) that have a convergence of interests – the desired outcome but not necessarily similar benefits or to ride “shot-gun” or to “piggy-back” on the operation but have a different targets/objectives altogether. If I may, to borrow the expression, “Killing two birds with one stone”. There are always “primary and secondary objectives” and “primary and secondary targets”. For the purposes of the present analysis I have focus on the primary objective. There are other layers of the onion to peel.
3. I accept that this ‘game’ is not being played on a level-playing field, and that I can never be the equal to the “Master – in Plain Sight” but, only because my colleagues and I do not have the same global resources and reach at our disposal!
