I dunno Juvat, you tell me, what is their next strike?
It's not worth even arguing anymore, people are gonna do what they want because they have inflated ego's and because they can. And most people that have never been on the pointy end will ever understand. I give up, keep posting MiLCOMS in Florida and y'aLL keep supporting him, have fun.

"Shack!" Blaming a civilian with a scanner for intercepting your message is about as responsible as telling the old lie that the dog ate your homework. To piggyback "miso" further... It's part of that old, "Loose lips sink ships" mantra...which "fudog50" seems to be addressing when he asked: I guess it is ok for civilians to violate "OPSEC' during time of war? Clearly the answer is an emphatic, "Well, duh!" Allan's posting is after the fact...historical if you will. IOW he's not giving out real-time or advance intelligence. Under your concern for OPSEC how much time must pass before it would be permissible for Allan to post? Again "fudog50" lamented: (whether you agree or not, we are at war, where is your patriotism? Why make it any easier for any potential enemy?) Wrapping the flag AKA patriotism around your argument kinda gives you some moral high ground. By your use of patriotism, folks opposed to aspects of the Patriot Act or GWB/Cheney/Rove/Rumsfeld are un-patriotic. Wouldn't it be horrible if the enemy used even a miniscule part of your military A/C comms to add into a tactical strike? Awww come on now "fudog50" now you're just pandering. Put your thinking cap on and contemplate probable targets and tactics. Think those islamist ****s are going to go for a "fat juicy" civilian airliner or an agile, mobile, and hostile military target?

After an exhausting session with Victoria's Secret Police, fudog50
confessed the following: I dunno Juvat, you tell me, what is their next strike? Hmmmm, how 'bout Athens Greece? Maybe Boston MA... It's not worth even arguing anymore, people are gonna do what they want because they have inflated ego's and because they can. Respectfully, ego has ZERO to do with the question or the answer. You assumed that Allan's posting of his log of military callsigns (and aircraft type) is accurate. You also conclude this information is a piece of the puzzle that may lead to a terrorist strike on something (you don't speculate on what). Allan's hobby is hardly the lynchpin in some possible terrorist strike. And most people that have never been on the pointy end will ever understand. Ummm, are you telling us you're a SEAL? In a previous life I had the honor of strapping a green & tan/green & gray twin engine J-79 powered and a gray single engine F-100 powered aerospace training device to my keester. Today I drive around on the pointy end of a twin engine 757. Personally I hope the islamist ****s target the military and not civilians...that's what the military gets paid for, plus the military gets to shoot back. But you're right in a sense, I don't understand any of your "hand wringing or the wailing and knashing of teeth," WRT to Allan's posts. Juvat |

confessed the following: Miso, It's not the intercepting of the message that worries me, no problem there. It's what is then done with it that disturbs me,,, By the way Advanced Narrow Band Digital Voice Terminal in itself is not scrambled, just a means of SATCOM. There are a few systems used by us, including DAMA, which includes wideband, but the associated crypto gear is what "scrambles" it. This is too funny to pass up. Ummm, were you the guy lamenting about posting information about our techniques? And here you've decided that this does NOT violate OPSEC...this is a hoot! How do you know how a foreign spook will get his info? Our current enemy (terrorists) might get it anywhere. Hmmm if I were an spook maybe I'd challenge your knowledge and say "you don't know what the f*ck you're talking about," and hope your ego gets in the way and you share a little more of your information, nothing classified mind you. Too funny. This is just another piece of the puzzle, and under OPSEC guidelines, is just wrong. (read up on OPSEC procedures then tell me how irresponsible I am) LOL...clearly the information you shared has no value because you would never violate OPSEC protocols. Juvat |

wrote: Here is one for starters, I'm sure you will get all defensive about it, I don't make the guidelines, but here are some of them. http://www.defendamerica.mil/articles/a021202b.html That is a Department of Energy site, and perhaps it might be more on-point to have DoD Instructions, Air Force Regulations, etc. Yet, here is a partial quote: Assessment of Risks Vulnerabilities and specific threats must be matched. Where the vulnerabilities are great and the adversary threat is evident, the risk of adversary exploitation is expected. Therefore, a high priority for protection needs to be assigned and corrective action taken. Where the vulnerability is slight and the adversary has a marginal collection capability, the priority should be low. Application of the Countermeasures Countermeasures need to be developed that eliminate the vulnerabilities, threats, or utility of the information to the adversaries. The possible countermeasures should include alternatives that may vary in effectiveness, feasibility, and cost. Countermeasures may include anything that is likely to work in a particular situation. The decision of whether to implement countermeasures must be based on cost/benefit analysis and an evaluation of the overall program objectives. In other words, countermeasures such as remaining completely silent are meant to be applied when a risk can be characterized. In an earlier posts, I described, from the standpoint of how an analyst would use this material, that the risk is quite low. |

I took a look at the article. The deal here is Al or civilians in
general don't know anything in the sense that they don't know when that plane will be arriving or dispatched. A guy with a scanner only has knowledge of the present AND nobody in the military gave him that knowledge. The assumption is whatever Al is doing can be done by the enemy, though probably not as good of a job as Al does. fudog50 wrote in message . ..
