Russian Intellegence is Looking Like A Cartoon

Two GRU officers photographed staring into a London street CAM at the site of poisoning of two Russian dissidents. One of the two reportedly had been awarded a medal years earlier by Putin. Then a car load of GRU officers are caught red-handed in the Hague trying to hack into the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons - a treasure trove of phones and laptops seized. Several of the team’s passport numbers were sequential.

While Russian Intelligence is far bolder and active under Vladimir Putin, it is looking more like an excerpt from the old Bullwinkle Show!

Tiger Droppings and the CIA

I couldn’t resist passing on something I read about the CIA during the Vietnam War. Evidently, in the 1960s and 1970s the Indochinese tiger population in Veitnam was robust. The Agency needed a way to track VietCong and the NVA. They came up with a seismic detection device that would identify troop movements. The problem though was how to disguise something that was not native to the surroundings but wouldn’t be noticed, or at least scrutinized.

The detection device was designed to look like tiger droppings.

Tiger Chips! That’s some cool %#!!
