Destructive Hacks Strike Saudi Arabia, Posing Challenge to Trump (bloomberg.com)
State-sponsored hackers have conducted a series of destructive attacks on Saudi Arabia over the last two weeks, erasing data and wreaking havoc in the computer banks of the agency running the country's airports and hitting five additional targets, according to two people familiar with an investigation into the breach. From a report on Bloomberg: Saudi Arabia said after inquiries from Bloomberg News that "several" government agencies were targeted in attacks that came from outside the kingdom, according to state media. Although a probe by Saudi authorities is still in its early stages, the people said digital evidence suggests the attacks emanated from Iran. That could present President-elect Donald Trump with a major national security challenge as he steps into the Oval Office. The use of offensive cyber weapons by a nation is relatively rare and the scale of the latest attacks could trigger a tit-for-tat cyber war in a region where capabilities have mushroomed ever since an attack on Saudi Aramco in 2012.
While Obama likes brownnosing the Saudis, I think he has a preference for Iran. I just wonder - when he went to Quran school as a little boy in Indonesia, was he enrolled as a Sunni or Shia? Or even Ibadi (the sect followed in Oman)?
And you are really a faggot.
LIke I said, I've never read Breitbart, but you are too much of a cretin to comprehend what I wrote above. At any rate, Indonesia is not the US: there, only Muslims would go to Quran school.
You know, it should not even be news if we really did have a Muslim president, a woman president, a gay president, or a lesbian president. The fact that you can do serious damage to a persons reputation by saying "he is a secret Muslim," and other such right wing trash, is what.. i know it..
Sad.
A lot of this election is still backlash against having a half African American president. A lot of those deplorables didn't like that. Maybe those deplorables should go back where they came from. I'm sure the Indians would appreciate it.
