PODESTA AND DNC HACK A USA JOB? PERHAPS---ACCORDING TO RECENT WIKILEAKS

WIKILEAKS: CIA HACKS HIDE CIA AND LEAVE RUSSIAN FINGERPRINTS

Today's Daily Mail, (UK) March 30, 2017 published the latest Wikileaks release on the CIA. They are claimed to be the largest ever. The dat documents how that agency has a computer code which can hide its own identity, after it hacks into a target's iPhone or computer. Significantly, for those in the recent "Russian" frenzy, the system is designed to leave behind a false flag "fingerprint" which points to Chinese, Russian or Iranian hackers. This is big news for the USA media and propagandists who have been on a "Russian Feeding Frenzy" since the election. We are all literally tired of hearing how the "Russian did it". The repetition itself seems suspicious...like some kind of an elaborate sales promotion. Then again, the Congress, the media and the nation at large have been reassured over and over again by our CIA and " intelligence experts" that it was the "Russians" who hacked into the DNC, and other US targets during the 2016 campaign. Now with this Wikileaks release those conclusions come into serious question.

Earlier this month Julian Assange, still precariously ensconced in a tiny room in the Ecuadorian Embassy in London where he took refuge from the USA, published thousands of documents which revealed top CIA hacking secrets. Those sources purport to document how the CIA is able to get into virtually anyone's smart phone or computer as well as bypass powerful encryption applications that are generally thought to protect private conversation and essential proprietary knowledge as well as legitimate businesses secrets from prying eyes.

Today's releases comprise "676 CIA source code files" according to the Daily Mail. The Mail claims that the codes show that the CIA can disguise its own hacking attacks to make it appear that the perpetrators were not CIA, but Russian, Chinese, North Korean, or Iranians. Assange claims (again according to the Daily Mail) that the CIA went to"great lengths" to disguise its own hacking efforts and "point the finger" at Russia, China North Korea and Iran. It's clear whom they see as opponents.

Don't expect anyone in the Washington establishment to agree with the assessment that the DNC and Podesta hacks were more likely "inside jobs" rather than Russian ops. But the circumstantial evidence is strong. It has been reported commonly and elsewhere that the vast majority of professional "spooks" simply did not like Clinton---and were happy to see her fall by the wayside. But with that threat nullified, they may not have been very pleased with the Trumpites either. The entire existence of the "intelligence community" depends on fear of a sinister enemy and vast expenditure of "defense money". Mr. Trump's sensible "opening to Russian" and emphasis on building American infrastructure was probably seen as an existential threat to these elements of the deep state. And finally, candidate Trump did not follow the "rules" (if he knew them) and since then has not been an acquiescent or compliant "intelligence doting" head of state or obvious friend of the "intelligence community".

The Washington DC elites and "deep state" are all enmeshed in the system. To the McCains and "Pancho Sanza" Grahams of this world who make a living creating mortal enemies for the USA to spend blood and money on...fear of Russia (or some other mortal enemy) is essential. They are uneasy now that Mosul the so-called heart of "caliphate" is collapsing and ISIS may soon no longer be considered a "real threat". A new enemy is needed...Russia, North Korea, Iran, and China are all up in the shooting gallery. Pick your target.
