U.S. officials are planning “a cyber false flag which will allow them to shut down the Internet,” says an American author and Islamic studies expert.

In a phone interview with the U.S. Desk on Thursday, Dr. Kevin Barrett said U.S. officials “are planning to take down the Internet in order to prevent the truth from gradually awakening the American people and other people of the West.”

On Wednesday, the Washington Post reported that Obama signed “a secret directive” enabling the military to take both “offensive” and “defensive” action “in the rapidly evolving world of cyberwar.”

The secret directive “establishes a broad and strict set of standards to guide the operations of federal agencies in confronting threats in cyberspace,” according to the report.

The newpaper said the information came from U.S. officials who saw the secret document but were “not authorized to speak on the record.”

Barrett called into question the the Post’s report and described it as “a public relations piece put out by the U.S. government.”

 Attorneys: Obama’s ‘secret’ cyber security law may allow ‘military deployment within the U.S.’

 

 Threat Of ‘Spectacular’ Cyberattack Looms: Official

By Camilla Lyngsby | CNBCFri, Nov 16, 2012

The U.S. is at war, a cyber war. And businesses and government are at risk, said Eric Rosenbach, Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Cyber Policy in an interview with CNBC.

“I read my intel brief every morning at 5:30 a.m. and it’s never a very good news story at all,” Rosenbach said. “There are a lot more attacks, and I hate to admit it but I fear that there will be some type of spectacular attack against the United States or one of our allies before there is comprehensive legislation and real appreciation to take this seriously.”

Just one month ago, Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta made headlines when he warned that the U.S. is in a “pre-9/11 moment” or a “Pearl Harbor” scenario, referring to a potential chain of cyberattacks against the country.

Rosenbach, Panetta’s right-hand man on cyber-security, echoed that chilling warning ─ to prepare for a digital 9/11.

Congress failed to push the Cyber Security Act of 2012, a bill that enabled the federal government to take control of all communication capabilities-including the cybersecurity standards of water, power, and utility companies-during a cyber emergency, through the Senate in August.

The bill failed again on Wednesday when Democrats and Repbulicans found themselves in diagreement over the role government agencies should play when it comes to protecting businesses in cyber emergencies.
