....The findings in Microsoft's newest threat intelligence report show how Iran, which has been active in recent U.S. elections, is evolving its tactics for another election that's likely to have global implications. The report goes a step beyond anything U.S. intelligence officials have disclosed, giving specific examples of Iranian groups and the actions they have taken so far. Iran's United Nations mission denied it had plans to interfere or launch cyberattacks in the U.S. presidential election.
The report doesn't specify Iran's intentions besides sowing chaos in the United States, though U.S. officials have previously hinted that Iran particularly opposes former President Donald Trump. U.S. officials also have expressed alarm about Tehran's efforts to seek retaliation for a 2020 strike on an Iranian general that was ordered by Trump. This week, the Justice Department unsealed criminal charges against a Pakistani man with ties to Iran who’s alleged to have hatched assassination plots targeting multiple officials, potentially including Trump.
The report also reveals how Russia and China are exploiting U.S. political polarization to advance their own divisive messaging in a consequential election year.
Microsoft's report identified four examples of recent Iranian activity that the company expects to increase as November’s election draws closer.....
Further reporting says that a group out of Iran is posing as from the US, targeting voters (Republicans and Democrats) to sway and also cause division....in essence, stoking high emotions. It sounds like the goal is division (reading between the lines, trying to push into civil war).
They are also posing as US activists, trying to lay groundwork to influence operations.
One could guess that Russia and China (who've both have alignments with Iran) are song the same.
My thoughts are.... stay off the angry train and don't get played by these bad actors (and by satan...human anger puts one at odds with God and that's a real tactic of our enemy, watch out!).
for our country for unity (and of course the Gospel moving out into the country), protection and the Lord's will/hand in the upcoming election.
