WAS NASHVILLE BOMBER ANTI-5G OR ANTI-DEEP-STATE?

On Christmas Day a camper van exploded in downtown Nashville causing widespread damage. One thing is clear about this bombing already -- we are not going to get a straight story from the mainstream media -- so it will be important to infer what happened here.

The key point is that this was a very specifically chosen target site. As reported by the BBC:

The van blew up outside a building belonging to the telecoms giant AT&T, which also occupies an office tower nearby.

Buildings suffered structural damage, windows were blown out, and trees were felled. Videos posted on social media showed water from damaged pipes running down walls as alarms howled in the background.

Police emergency systems were knocked out across much of Tennessee. Flights out of Nashville International Airport were briefly halted as a result of damage done by the blast but have now resumed.

One obvious explanation for this pinpoint attack is anti-5G sentiment. A press statement from the company's website makes it clear that AT&T is playing the leading role in promoting this controversial new technology in the USA:

AT&T 5G Launches in 137 New Markets, Covering More Than 160 Million People in the U.S.

Consumers in Atlanta, Baton Rouge, Nashville and Tallahassee, among others, now have access to AT&T 5G, building on the nation’s best and also fastest wireless network.

AT&T’s 5G network is now live for consumers in 137 additional markets across the country and now covers more than 160 million people. With today’s launch, AT&T now offers access to 5G on its best unlimited wireless plans for consumers and businesses in a total of 327 markets in the U.S.

“While many of us have been working from home for the past three months, AT&T’s network team continued to build and test our network so that we could emerge from this season with stronger, broader 5G coverage for our customers across the country,” said Chris Sambar, EVP of Technology Operations. “Whether it’s getting you back to work, back to school, or back to play, we’ve got you covered with the fastest wireless speeds in the nation.”

But there is an even more sinister potential reason than this for the attack. Rather than bomb the far more prominent AT&T skyscraper just two blocks away, the attacker centred on a more discrete AT&T facility that is "brushed" from Google Maps and Google Street View. 

This suggests that the target is very possibly a key node in America's NSA spy network, and gives the attack a much more anti-Deep-State character.

Two years ago The Intercept reported on AT&T's extremely cozy relationship with America's Deep State:

Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas, Los Angeles, New York City, San Francisco, Seattle, and Washington, D.C. In each of these cities, The Intercept has identified an AT&T facility containing networking equipment that transports large quantities of internet traffic across the United States and the world. A body of evidence – including classified NSA documents, public records, and interviews with several former AT&T employees – indicates that the buildings are central to an NSA spying initiative that has for years monitored billions of emails, phone calls, and online chats passing across U.S. territory.

The NSA considers AT&T to be one of its most trusted partners and has lauded the company’s “extreme willingness to help.” It is a collaboration that dates back decades. Little known, however, is that its scope is not restricted to AT&T’s customers. According to the NSA’s documents, it values AT&T not only because it “has access to information that transits the nation,” but also because it maintains unique relationships with other phone and internet providers. The NSA exploits these relationships for surveillance purposes, commandeering AT&T’s massive infrastructure and using it as a platform to covertly tap into communications processed by other companies.

That article identified eight key facilities but did not identify Nashiville. Either Nashville is a recent addition to the list or had an even higher role in this hi-tech Deep State network and therefore greater secrecy.
