Aftermath Operation Midnight Hammer: What Iran Does Next
Description:
In this week’s Global Intelligence Weekly Wrap-Up, Neil Bisson — retired CSIS Intelligence Officer and Director of the Global Intelligence Knowledge Network — unpacks the global fallout from Operation Midnight Hammer, the escalating grey-zone conflict with Iran, and the national security vulnerabilities now facing Canada.
🇺🇸 Did the CIA just contradict the Pentagon on how badly Iran’s nuclear sites were hit?
📞 Why did the FBI and DHS urgently brief U.S. governors after the strikes?
⚖️ Are Iran’s new spy trials real counterintelligence wins — or political theatre?
🪦 Were the executions of three alleged Mossad agents about justice — or intimidation?
🕵️ Could the IRGC already have sleeper cells embedded in Canadian cities?
🔐 Did Canada’s own spy agency improperly share private citizen data with foreign partners?
💻 How did Chinese hackers from Salt Typhoon compromise a Canadian telecom provider?
Plus: 🇨🇦 Don’t miss Neil’s guest appearance on the Canada Day episode of Spyscape’s True Spies podcast, airing July 1st — where he reveals covert meeting tradecraft in the episode “Cover of Darkness.”
