...And incidentally captured traffic with Trump coordinating the next election fraud with Russia...
Were they unmasked ?
The BS comes thick and fast from the MSM
It’s CNN, so we at least know that our people did NOT intercept this type of communication.
Syria is old news. The intervention there is done. Assad can get on with the killing now.
If this is to be believed, then the US had advanced warning that a poison gas was imminent. Did the US express to the Russians or somehow to the Syrians that such an attack would not be acceptable? If they did, those deaths may have been prevented without the US assuming a deeper, costly involvement in this quagmire.
If they got this electronic intercepts and they tracked the SU-22s to the target and back like I’ve read, and they have photographic evidence of Sarin chemical weapons from satellites, it’s open and shut.
Pootie Putin is talking out his butt.
Could be, whom do we trust? Pravda RT?
Probably McCain or his girlfriend again.
Maybe.
I still think the Russians at the base saw what was going on and ratted them out. Russia doesn’t need chem weapons screwing up their plans in Syria.
Journalism is a career for the feeble minded?
US officials have said that there is "no doubt" that Syrian President Bashar al-Assad is responsible for the attack.
The "no doubt" part refers to an article that is just as non-explaining as the posted article.
The US did not know prior to the attack it was going to happen, the official emphasized. The US scoops up such a large volume of communications intercepts in areas like Syria and Iraq, the material often is not processed unless there is a particular event that requires analysts to go back and look for supporting intelligence material.
Yeah, that sounds pretty definitive.
So far there are no intelligence intercepts that have been found directly confirming that Russian military or intelligence officials communicated about the attack. The official said the likelihood is the Russians are more careful in their communications to avoid being intercepted.
This is the kind of thing that passes for concrete intel?
They must think we are real idiots.
Last time it was reported, all sorts of communications can be easily forged by spy agencies.
The question is "why"?
an UNNAMED senior US official tells CNN.
The first time CNN spackles your buttocks crack with joint compond is their fault.
After that you’re just a mook.
Why do we
never get Obama phone intercepts with terrorist enemies? We know they are daily
Not trusting CNN. I believe the gas attack was perfidy, but I don’t mind President Trump ordering the bombing of the syrian military airfield.
There was just absolutely no upside for Assad using chemical weapons.
It’s CNN and they quote a “senior U.S. official”. That qualifies as fake news.
A little birdie told me Assad woke up with a horse head in his bed.
