i was thinking maybe along the lines of a virus custom made for a single persons DNA, you could spray a whole town with the virus but it would only effect the person it was custom made for.


Now that is a scary thought. And of course, you could also add to that the ability to commit genocide on all sorts of different groups. From a small family to an entire race.

I don't think our bio-tech is quite advanced enough for that yet though. Well, not what is being militarized/weaponized and fielded at this point anyway.

They might referring to so called smart dust.


I have no doubt that this stuff is being used, but it really does have a somewhat limited capability overall. Good for security work in a limited area, but I don't think that it is going to revolutionize warfare. Again, the biggest problem is not the technology itself, but the processing and correlation of the data. Someone has to be listening in the right place and right time.

Maybe they have figured out how to eavesdrop in on conversations, even when held indoors, from space, or other remote locations.


I have little doubt that this is not only possible, but is indeed being used as well. But of course, yet again the capability is not the crux of the matter. You have to know who to listen to at the right time and place. The filtering of the data is the real magic.

...I would say it is an ability to monitor every phone call made inside Iraq.


Without a doubt this is being done. In fact, I have little doubt that every electronic communication in the world can be monitored. The FBI has been listening in on our phone conversations here in the US without warrants since the OKC bombing.

I agree with much of what has been speculated about current capabilities.
We have HD satellites in all spectrums with FMV and full rewind. Similar to google earth, but next gen and operable from a touchscreen table in the war room. (like this)
Car bomb goes off, they can zoom in on the area and rewind to see where it came from...maybe.
The whole place is prolly swarming with UAVs 24/7 and aside from conventional and new weapons, our weapons are better than their's.
We probably have access to all but the most private of sat phone communications unless we're talking about 2 cans on a string.
So that's all given.
I like the idea of the triangle S4 vehicle. Silent and no doubt, full of exotic new tech. Being as quiet as it may be would benefit it's surveillance capability helping them to find specific people.

Still, the thing that still nags is the whole being able to find and single out the particularly hostile-minded...how do you know who that is? We probably make 2 new enemies for every one we kill.
Sounds like the remote viewers or maybe even some form of theta wave detection tool such that they are working towards with HAARP? You know...capture the baddie...read his theta pattern...get some more and develop a profile for the intended target.
If not, then I'd go with the propaganda/media as a weapon idea. It's the scientology technique: "knowing about knowing" ...keep em guessing...thinking you have an ace up yer sleeve when ya don't...flush em out.

If he was being literal, like this is something that'd replace the tank AND heli...or be profound to killing in a similar way by putting explosives somewhere fast, then I hate to say it, but I am kindof excited to think it might be an anti-grav vehicle. Alien tech may be a stretch, but maybe he's just really good at keeping the biggest secret in human history.
