Intent Misdirection Layering: A Fog for Your Real Objective
A tradecraft deception method where an operative creates multiple believable mission narratives through movements, materials, and contact patterns, to obscure the real objective and overwhelm adversary analysis.
When you’re running a sensitive op and exposure is particularly possible, intent becomes your most dangerous footprint. It’s not the gear you’re carrying or the people you’re meeting that gets you burned. It’s the pattern that emerges when someone starts putting those pieces together.
This skillset is about controlling the narrative so tightly that the truth gets buried under a mountain of believable lies. It’s a high-discipline tradecraft move that turns perception into a weapon, forcing adversaries to waste time, resources, and credibility chasing shadows.
