I suspect I understand his coded message. However, I don't think I should go say it openly yet given the efforts at secrecy, both in this tweet and elsewhere. I'm not an insider, but I happened to pay attention to something when it was temporarily more accessible and haven't forgotten it since, which was how I was able to make the connection. The bad guys read this board too, and I would prefer for them to be taken by surprise.
I know that was unhelpful on my part and makes me sound dangerously like a LARPer. You may trust me if you feel like it, but I recommend you trust Ben Swann in this. It's only going to be a few days anyway. If I'm right the message is genuinely good news.
Thank you. I haven't felt hopeful lately. Just feeling down in general about the state of things and the darker aspect of the world as I've come to see it more clearly the last few month. Investigative journalism is dead and Ben is a bright spot that gave me hope that not only are there some decent journalists left out there who want to report the truth - there are also brave ones like Ben who are willing to go against the world and speak up. Then his PG video was taken down so quickly. Then he announced his project on ISIS was stopping. Then this tweet. I felt like we had an advocate with a bigger voice than us 'crazies'.
So yeah, I hope you're right. I wish Ben only the best...he's one of the good ones.
