CIA Warns China Might Be Planning Cyber Attack

malibucreek writes "The Los Angeles Times is reporting that the CIA is warning of possible cyber-terrorism against U.S. and Taiwanese computer systems by the Chinese Army. Or, China could just launch a massive denial-of-service attack by sending billions of "GET HERBAL VIAGRA" e-mails from the .cn TLD." The article has a reasonable amount of information and is probably worth a read if you're curious about what could be a real big deal in the future.

    FUCK YEA THAT IS WHY THEY HATE US!!!

    Despite your claim, we have NOT bombed most of the nations that hate us. Let's see. The biggest bomb ever detonated on a population is history was on Japan by the US. Their our friends. We bombed the shit out of Germany; allies. So, by that reasoning the small pot shots we have taken aren't why they hate us. Us not BOMBING THEM MORE is why they hate us.

    Do I really think we need to bomb these guys more. No. DON'T BE A DOLT AND THINK I WANT TO BOMB THEM MORE!!!

    Wake up and smell the propaganda. The U.S. is the most successful nation in the UNIVERSE. And a free, capitolistic society is what made it that way. The oppressed societies are poor. And when the people ask the ones in charge "Why can't I feed my family" do you REALLY think they tell them "because I want to oppress this country for my friends and I personal gain"? NO. They blame it on the country that their people see has success (and money and FOOD).

    They (the governments in charge) are upset by the fact that the Freedom of the U.S. is spoiling their little power trip by showing their people that it doesn't have to be that way. You see they have their money and power from the suppresiono of their people. If they were to allow freedom of their people then they would loose their money and power. So, they tell their people how EVIL the United States is. How the United States steels money from their mouths. How the United States gets its money and power from them and that is why they can't feed their family.

    Get a clue. This is propaganda pure and simple. Someone doesn't get rich by steeling from the poor. They are NOT por because we are rich. They are poor from their governments suppressive nature.

    It's become fashionable to dislike the U.S. here in the U.S. It's the in vogue thing to do. So, our own media bashes the system that allows it the freedom to do so. Do you even REALIZE that this is NOT ALLOWED in many other countries? The result is that our own free media spreads the propaganda being spewed forth from these repressive regimes. And people like YOU (yea, the one that mentioned the bombs) pick up on it.

    I got one thing to say about people who live in the U.S. and bash it: GET OUT!!!!! Then you will see how good the U.S. really is.
