They’re more reliable than a snake lying in the dirt.

Giving notification that some kind of terrorist attack is coming is a humane action. There’s no need to support it with specifics about sources and methods, which is what the Russians want.

” If they were specific, they would likely be giving away information that might get the source killed. “


Nobody in the USA intel mob is that smart to think that far ahead.

Contrast this vague warning (which now looks like a heads up to Moscow Westerners) to the Russians on the Boston Marathon bombing.

The Russians named specific people. The Russians actually sent the warning TWICE !

But the Diversity (?) Retards in the Boston FBI Field Office and FBI HQ couldn’t do an alternative spelling search for a foreign language name....

And didn’t do anything with the warnings.

Like a psychic with a crystal ball.

In order to work on something, you have to present a work plan, an estimate of the required personnel, tools and equipment, and the potential gain. I suspect that the intel service is mired in processes and procedures that will never be appropriate to the threat. I’m betting the document preparation and lengthy approval process prevents people from surfacing anything that isn’t already on their plate. for the most part, in my opinion, these are pencil pushers, not investigators or agents.

I wasn’t directly involved in any of the above, but I got the flavor of it by being (remotely) adjacent.

That is true. I’ve seen that many times.

But in this case they had two specific warnings, with names. That would have gone into someone’s work queue, with Step One being: do a name search and see if you can find these guys.

Inability to do names search of “foreign” names seems to be a common failing amongst the Security Services of many Western countries. Which is kind of a problem when they are dealing with foreign terrorists.

No wonder these retards want to spend their time investigating the domestic “far right”.

See posts #10 and #23.

The same ISIS-K Terrorists snookered the CIA at the Abbey Gate Bombing with Biden's best security right there, so CIA responded by droning 7 innocent Afghan children and 3 adults, all loyal to, and working for America.

Details ARE important, and CIA is particularly bad in owning up to them.
