The author seems like a total dick, but given the recent fear/rumor of the possibility of a false flag attacks on U.S. soil, I feel like something like this isn’t inconceivable.

    Exactly, it’s a modern day trojan horse. It seems to be fairly easy to then potentially pin the attack on just about anyone using shell companies for shipment. Especially with the deregulation and removal of so many safety and security positions over the last several months.

    I was reading a little about the beeper attacks the and I think even now there is still some uncertainty about which company actually worked with the Mossad to manufacture the batteries that contained the explosive.

    The only reason I even bring that up, is that there were so many steps involving so many different groups of legitimate manufacturing companies as well as shell companies to ship the beepers. Some of the beepers were even taken apart and inspected before being distributed as a security measure, but they had used such a small amount of explosive fuel within the batteries, that it was completely missed.

      Unless there’s another beeper attack I missed, the one last September was directed at Hezbollah, across Lebanon and Syria.
