How do you capture a very dangerous animal?
Do you attack it from the front?
Do you walk through the front door?
Do you signal ahead of time you will be attacking?
To catch a wild animal you set a TRAP.
Q posted the pic of the meeting and where it was going to be. Chatter starts to ensue and Q and team picks it up. Then the meeting is canceled with causes more chatter, which Q team hears. Then the meeting is back on and even more chatter and more coms picked up. Hit teams flood to Singapore and Q teams knows everything. This meeting is juicy bait and they are going to send experienced teams.
The trap is set, now just wait for the prey.
The hunter becomes the hunted.
