### Code Word Austin, 787 Dreamliner and Terrorist Staging

- **Episode:** [500: Codeword Austin](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/500-codeword-austin.md)
- **Published:** 2013-03-31
- **Time:** 2:09:56–2:18:29
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/500-codeword-austin/chapter/code-word-austin-787-dreamliner-and-terrorist-staging.md

The hosts speculate that the repeated mention of "Austin" in North Korean propaganda is a code word rather than a literal target. They explore potential links to the Boeing 787 Dreamliner (matching Austin's 787 area code) and the possibility of a staged EMP or "boom" event to justify new security technology. The movie "Olympus Has Fallen" is cited as part of the cultural conditioning for such an event.

Two upcoming films, "White House Down" and "Olympus Has Fallen," both depict attacks on the White House. The hosts question the purpose of these high-budget movies featuring stars like Morgan Freeman and Jamie Foxx. They suggest the films may be a message to President Obama from the "complex" that he is a replaceable stooge.
