Severe security default is exciting U.S After the “Atlantic” editor was exposed to confidential information in the chat of US government officials – allegedly contrary to information security laws. Editor, Jeffrey Goldberg, announced this week that the National Security Adviser Mike Waltz accidentally attached him to a group in Signal -an encrypted but non -governmental messaging app – in which the senior officials discussed the attack of the Houthi rebels in Yemen, and did not spare severe statements against European leaders.
Goldberg finally removed himself from the team, noting that “no one noticed that I was there and I was not asked why I left, or more for the point – who I am,” and soon the reactions came to the storm. Brian Yuz, a White House National Security Council spokesman, said a response to publications and approved their truths: “It seems to be an authentic messaging chain, and we are investigating how additional adapted.”
After being revealed that Mike Waltz joined the journalist to the group, on his face unintentionally, it was reported that he had a danger of impeachment. The “Politico” website reported that President Donald Trump followed the embarrassing event coverage in the media and that in the White House, one thing agrees: “Waltz is finished.” However, in a telephone interview to the NBC network, Trump first referred to the affair and expressed confidence in Waltz when he said: “Mike Waltz learned a lesson, and he is a good person.” When asked what he was told about the way Goldberg came to chat, Trump said. “It was one of Mike’s men.”
Message: Biden’s guilty
According to Goldberg’s report, at 8:05 pm on Friday morning, March 14, he received an invitation to join the team called “Houthi PC Small Group,” by a user who identified as a Vekez. First, Goldberg wrote, he suspected it was a fraud exercise and rejected the order, but two days later got one of the same user – and joined. In a statement Wolts wrote, he updated the group’s members with the need to “coordinate with dampness, especially in the next 72 hours.” Waltz also noted that “the State Department and the Pentagon have formulated a list of allies and regional partnership.”
At this point, Goldberg wrote in Atlantic, one of the participants associated with JD Vance (US Vice President, JD and rap) added an unusual comment – given that Trump’s positions did not take any subject – when he called to reject the attack in the month: “I think we do not understand it … I’m not sure the president understands how much it doesn’t match his message about Europe right now. There is another risk that seems to be sharp to sharp oil prices. I am willing to support the team consensus and leave the concerns for myself, but there is a strong argument to postpone it a month, do the publicity work on why it is important, to check the state of the economy and the like. “Vance’s spokesman said that” despite the impression created, the Vice President is fully linked to Trump. ”
The Minister of Defense, Pitt the jar, responded to the Deputy President’s concern, noted that it would be difficult to improve public information and offered an interesting solution: blaming the Biden administration. “Nobody knows who these are the Houthi. Therefore, you have to stay focused on the fact that Bidzan failed and Iran finances them.” He said the gift and public information could be dangerous for the United States: “The information may leak and we will see the hesitant if Israel is acting first.”
The emojis of the CIA
The group discussion received a fascinating turn – the European angle to the Red Sea crisis. “I’m tired of saving Europe again,” the Vice President wrote. In a few minutes, the Minister of Defense replied that he was “disrupted by European hitchhikers. It is pathetic. But we are the only ones who can do it. There is no one else approaching our abilities. The question is timing.
At this point Stephen Miller, Deputy Head of the Window House and Trump’s upcoming advisor, intervened in the hearing. “The president was clear. We have a green light for the attack. But it is important that we make it clear to Egypt and Europe what we expect to receive in return. We also have to think about how to enforce it.
The next morning, at 11:44, the junk sent an update on operational details for the attack in Yemen. “It was a reckless conversation,” Goldberg noted, “which included details of close attacks, including goals, types of weapons that the United States will operate and sequence.”
A few hours later, after the attack against the Houthis occurred, another update was sent in the group and one of the participants responded: “Amazing work.” CIA John Ratcruff sent punching, US flag and fire, and Steve Whitkoff, the American messenger to the Middle East, added two -handed emojim and US flags.
Not the first case
This is not the first time the US has been facing personal conversations and leakage of security details.
Some of the documents came to the Weekilix website, which published them and caused a small embarrassment to US foreign services and Shekelin itself. However, Clinton was not prosecuted for the FBI recommendation.
