Terrorist analyst: Sir! We've intercepted the American communications, but it's in a new language!
Terrorist Leader: What the $%@$ is THAT? Sounds like my two year old kid playing with his trucks and rockets. Get our best linguistics guy on it, right away!
@TemporalSword: Admittedly, "BBBBBBBBBBRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR" and "FWWWWOOON" might actually make for a pretty tough encryption method, as without any discerning auditory features, the language would be hard to crack. Of course, then they'll assume it's encrypted and start doing reverse Fourier analysis on it and then who knows what may happen..
@crashedpc : ゴキブリ and 蟑螂 division: Cause I can totally envision the terrorists hiding in their crappy little caves with advanced supercomputers capable of Fourier analyses just out of sight. Maybe they are like little Bat caves, with gadgets lying around and souped-up goats ready to launch from 6 different tunnels. Hm, come to think of it, that was kinda the cave in Iron Man, so, yeah!
