I was just getting ready to post about this. I was noticing on cnn last night that the story had been changed around. It's also very interesting that they are starting to talk more and more about "conspiracy" web sites and referring to them as "anti goverment" and "right wing conspiracy theorists" and how these sites are "stirring up" dangerous information. And now connecting sites like ATS as being basically a place where the mentally ill people post about things such as "9/11 truth".
Anyone see what is happening here? They are starting to get it out into the mainstream that not only was the pentagon shooter "mentally ill" but so are conspiracy theorists, and people like us who come to sites like ats.

As interesting as this story is, we need to let this thread die.
Threads like these are ruining ATS and the minds of the people reading/posting in these threads. Why do you think the MSM is saying that conspiracy theorist are nut cases?
If I were to show this thread to someone who doesn't post on ATS, they would laugh and probably never visit this site unless they needed another good laugh. Yes ATS has a lot of good information, but threads like these, as I said, are ruining it and the little reputation we have left as conspiracy theorists. I don't blame people for saying some conspiracy theorists are nutjobs because honestly, some really are... take this thread for example.

I'd love for him to go in depth about the hacking end of this little operation. I'm sure there are more than enough established hackers / I.T. engineers in this community to scrutinize the evidence. That alone could put an end to all of this. Leaving his post vague (with the exception of a common form of encryption that could be found in 2 seconds using any search engine) ranks this right up there with the flying spaghetti monster for me; entertaining but utterly lacking any real substance. When and if he presents any valid evidence I'm sure his claims will be taken more seriously.

Interesting kdial1 but highly implausible, if not impossible.
Here's a couple of things I find wrong with this story.
1.) Network sniffing, Arp spoofing, Penetration Testing or as he puts it Pen Testing.
Everyone does realize how network sniffing works right?
en.wikipedia.org...
They would need have a machine, a zombie if you will on the physical network segment they wished to monitor traffic on. Not easily done my friends.
So think about this, these old hacks were able to not only penetrate a NSA computer and take it over, but were then able to start Arp spoofing their entire network to grab all communications? These guys may have been good, but really almost anybody who is that good is well known to the NSA. Remember they can see into the future.
2.) The claim of "I set up secure lines of communication and ran crypt-analysis on ciphered keys John sniffed off the networks." Everybody knows how encryption works right?
en.wikipedia.org...
The only thing stack could have ever got off the network is a public key. As stated above even that's a pipe dream. The private key would have been on this so called destination database. With out the private key nobody is reading chite. If encryption was so easy to hack everyone would be doing it including non computer savvy old men like the ones who post at GLP.
3.) All government agencies like the NSA and the CIA take security very seriously, and that's an understatement. These guys are beyond paranoid. Any breach to their defenses would sound off alarm bells and teams of very qualified people would respond, quickly closing such gaps. No one hacks into their respective agencies easily. Again if you could do it they probably already know who you are.
Sorry I call this a hoax and debunked.
