LOL...I think I could support supression of Brittney stories...:)

You know totalitarians though...they think nothing is beyond their control...so it works in our favor...

Another thing I recalled was teh US asking oneof the other “Muslim” countries to cut off Iran’s access to the world’s banking system and they refused....Yemen, maybe?..

Maybe it is us? Trying to collapse Iran’s ecomony?

Iranians don’t want their citizens exposed to the world?

Interesting goings on there. Many moving pieces. Many are predicting an imminent attack on Iran. I was wondering if some entity is trying to disturb terrorist Internet communications in that part of the world and watch how and where the rats make do? Any thoughts?

"What kind of communications go through these?"

Lots of things! If you knew exactly what, someone might have to . . . well you know. Now that the lines are severed, hardly anything gets in or out. That is unless you want to count the carrier pigeons.

This report from UAE goes into a little more detail regarding what services are hurt.

USS Carter is designed to replace Parche (which replaced Seawolf and Hallibut) in the undersea special missions (specialized intelligence gathering) role. This includes underwater cable-tapping. According to "Blind Man's Bluff" (p.296 and 297), it was Carter who authorized the highly successful tapping of the Soviets communications cables in the Sea of Okhotsk and the Barents Sea. 55 posted on ‎6‎/‎6‎/‎2004‎ ‎8‎:‎35‎:‎21‎ ‎AM by tanknetter
