The Internet, the USA, which created this miracle, are looking for ways to use
it as a weapon of information warfare. About the seriousness of Bely’s intentions
at home it says at least that in the budget of the US intelligence community for
1999 about 3 billion dollars allocated by the American Congress
for the implementation of the program for using the Internet as
information weapons are written on a separate line. Another
this is confirmed by the personnel policy of the American
special services. For a year and a half since the creation of the department

US Defense (RUMO), the number of its employees exceeded 100

 "DESA" AS A MEANS OF INFLUENCE.
 
The United States publicly announced its intentions
at the end of 2000 at a conference held in the USA under
titled "Information Warfare". Possibilities were discussed at it
use of the Internet for intelligence purposes, destruction of networks
communications and telecommunications, databases and data banks using
various types of information weapons. In 1998, as they say
FSB specialistsRossi, in accordance with the recommendation
American Congress Department of Intelligence
US Defense has developed a special program for using
the global Internet as a weapon of information warfare
against countries in the sphere of interests of the United States. In
primarily North Korea, Iraq and CIS countries. Developed

 Opportunities to influence public policy and

the country is on its knees,” he said (though he meant the USA).
 Every year the number of network subscribers increases
about twice. Thus, “posted” on the network
disinformation automatically becomes the property of half a million
people from different countries of the world. Moreover, according to representatives
provider companies that provide communication between the Internet and its
consumers, check the original source of its appearance practically
impossible.  One of the simplest methods to disguise
"misinformation","concocted" by the intelligence services - register

 However, most likely, “military actions” will not be limited to simple

millions.

 MORE SCARY THAN A TON OF URANIUM
 
 In 1993, in the directive of the Chiefs of Staff Committee number 30
the basic principles of information warfare were outlined.
Currently, the United States has already created several information systems
weapons. For example: 1.INFOR, 2.INFOR and REP (radio-electronic
suppression). 
 The first allows you to use computer viruses, "logical
bombs" and other similar means for incapacitating or
use of information systems and
networks ensuring the functioning of government bodies
management, military and industrial facilities. For example, special

alien electronic environment. At a given time, or by signal

 The second type of INFOR allows you to provide psychological

this was enough for even

 Recently, there have also been reports of a certain

state of the computer operator. This virus displays a special

 However, despite the powerful REP, the States failed
to completely isolate Iraq from the outside world.
 Since 1994, funding for the US military to acquire
information technologies and equipment of various types
information weapons received priority direction. For these
More funds are allocated for purposes than for nuclear missile and
space programs.
 In addition, officer positions have been introduced in the Navy and Air Force
dealing with issues of information warfare. And since 1995
The National Defense University began to graduate specialists in
to these problems.
As reported by the Washingtom Post, in May last year at a closed
at a meeting of the American Congress, the CIA announced its intention

 So soon you can forget about weapons, and that’s all
wars will be fought over the Internet
