Panetta Warns Were In 'Pre-9-11 Moment' That Could Precede Catastrophic Attack
Panetta says cyber attackers accessed controls for critical US infrastructure
Defense secretary bluntly warns were in ‘pre-9-11 moment’ that could precede catastrophic attack, hints Iran involved
In a blunt admission designed to prod action, Defense Secretary Leon Panetta Thursday night told business executives there has been a sudden escalation of cyber terrorism and that attackers have managed to gain access to control systems for critical infrastructure.
In a speech in New York City, Panetta said the recent activities have raised concerns inside the U.S. intelligence community that cyber terrorism might be combined with other attacks to create massive panic and destruction on par with the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks.
“These attacks mark a significant escalation of the cyber threat. And they have renewed concerns about still more destructive scenarios that could unfold,” he said. “For example, we know that foreign cyber actors are probing America’s critical infrastructure networks.
“They are targeting the computer control systems that operate chemical, electricity and water plants, and those that guide transportation throughout the country,” he added. “We know of specific instances where intruders have successfully gained access to these control systems. We also know they are seeking to create advanced tools to attack these systems and cause panic, destruction, and even the loss of life.”
Current and former U.S. officials tell the Washington Guardian that U.S. investigators have growing evidence that Iran was behind a recent wave of cyber attacks, particularly those that temporarily paralyzed energy interests in two Middle East countries that are key U.S. allies.
Panetta stopped short in his speech of formally accusing Iran but left no doubt America has strong suspicions about Tehran. “Iran has also undertaken a concerted effort to use cyberspace to its advantage,” he declared.

What a lying worm. Can’t stand the sight of him.
Can’t you spell check and edit before you post? We’re not were…
He’s nothing more than a retard Neo-Con repeater station. He’s pushing Romney. He just reposts the BS from Breitbart and other racist Neo-Con war-monger youtube BS. He hasn’t had an original thought in his pathetic parrot life….
I remember when he played the role of a liberal.
just a shame a piece of filth like this is in a position of power.
We better take him seriously, he knows what will happen.
However, I can assure you 100%, that no terrorist attack will happen.
He is outright lying when he mentions terrorism.
The word 9/11 has evolved to a different meaning lately and today it should be taken as a warning.
A Zionist planned war (they plan to level/nuke Damascus), that will temporarily affect the stock market. That’s what he is talking about. Yes fellows, it is clearly written in the Bible, Damascus will be a pile of rubble.
The world will be outraged and the Zionists will offer a solution… PEACE!
How nice…!!!!
