Actually they are NOT classified.

To translate the abbreviations above:
TS - Top Secret
SI - Special Intelligence is the control system covering communications intelligence.
TK - Talent Keyhole means the source is overhead or space based collection systems, either IMINT (Imagery intelligence), SIGINT (Signals intelligence), and/or MASINT (Measurement and signature intelligence) collection platforms; related processing and analysis techniques; and research, design, and operation of these platforms.
NOFORN (NF) - No Foreign (US citizens only)(This may sometimes have a notation Releasable to NATO, UK, or other countries who may have worked with us to generate the intelligence.)

If there were any additional Code Words listed, such as McGuffin, the meaning of McGuffin could be classified separately at any level from Confidential to Top Secret. There are a handful of Code Words that have been declassified, such as TK above.

NATO? Wonder what we’re doing for ErDOGan in Turkey. Guess they are still a NATO member, even though they openly side with the ISIS Terrorists. And appear to have tricked the US into allowing them to bomb the Kurds from a shared air base.

Now, I suspect most of our military was in the dark on that, but there is no question that Obama was in on that gig.

Headshake.
