Is Russia REALLY Behind the DNC Hack?

Dave Emory’s entire life­time of work is avail­able on a flash dri­ve that can be obtained HERE [1]. The new dri­ve is a 32-giga­byte dri­ve that is cur­rent as of the pro­grams and arti­cles post­ed by ear­ly win­ter of 2016. The new dri­ve (avail­able for a tax-deductible con­tri­bu­tion of $65.00 or more.) (The pre­vi­ous flash dri­ve was cur­rent through the end of May of 2012.)

COMMENT: Some cyber-secu­ri­ty experts view the “Russ­ian intel­li­gence” hack­ing of DNC com­put­ers as sus­pi­cious­ly trans­par­ent [6]. Not­ing that the hack­er seems to have left infor­ma­tion avail­able point­ing to a Russ­ian cul­prit, some have asked if a seri­ous, pro­fes­sion­al intel­li­gence ser­vice would do some­thing like that.

It reminds us of the Lee Har­vey Oswald dou­bles who were trav­el­ing all around and tak­ing actions that would point to, and incrim­i­nate Oswald as the sup­posed assas­sin who killed Pres­i­dent Kennedy. Recall that one of the nick­names we have assigned Snow­den is “The Obverse Oswald.” [7]

We won­der if “Team Snow­den” might have some­thing to do with this? Julian Assange has been quite open about want­i­ng to dam­age Hillary Clin­ton’s chances to win the Pres­i­den­cy.

Both Snow­den [8] and Julian Assange [9] are ultra-right wingers and big fans of Ron Paul [10], who express­es sen­ti­ments sim­i­lar to those voiced [11] by the Trumpenkampfver­bande. The hack seems like­ly to pro­pel Hillary more in the direc­tion of the New Cold War than she is already inclined to nav­i­gate, if she wins.

Wik­iLeaks’ oper­a­tions [12] for Rus­sia and Scan­di­navia are over­seen by Assange’s Holo­caust deny­ing close aide Joran Jer­mas (aka “Israel Shamir”) and his son Johannes Wahlstrom, a bird of the same polit­i­cal feath­er. It was Jermas/Shamir who arranged for Wik­iLeaks to be host­ed on the Pirate Bay serv­er, financed by Swedish fas­cist Carl Lund­strom [13].

Snow­den, of course, is in Rus­sia right now, work­ing for a com­put­er firm. Does he have any­thing to do with this? Recall it was Snow­den’s jour­ney to Rus­sia [14], cour­tesy of Sarah Har­ri­son and Wik­iLeaks, that put the final nail in the cof­fin of the “reboot with Rus­sia” under­tak­en by Oba­ma’s State Depart­ment under Hillary Clin­ton.

Pierre Omid­yar [15], who’s First Look Media were the recip­i­ent of Snow­den’s NSA files and which employs Nazi fel­low-trav­el­er Glenn Green­wald [16], helped finance the Ukraine coup.

In a future pro­gram and/or post, we will look at “cor­po­rate Ger­many’s” dis­sat­is­fac­tion [17] with the sanc­tions on Rus­sia. They are cost­ing Ger­man firms [18] a great deal of mon­ey. Bear in mind that the Bor­mann cap­i­tal net­work [19] con­trols cor­po­rate Ger­many. The sit­u­a­tion of Ger­man firms and Rus­sia must also be eval­u­at­ed against tra­di­tion­al Ger­man “Ost­poli­tik,” which is cov­ered at length in Ger­many Plots with the Krem­lin [20] avail­able for down­load for free on this web­site.

We men­tion this, because Trump’s com­ments about Putin, Rus­sia and NATO have led most observers to assume he is a “Krem­lin stooge.” We sus­pect he may actu­al­ly be under the con­trol of the Bor­mann cap­i­tal net­work [21] and his expressed atti­tudes toward Rus­sia reflect cor­po­rate Ger­many’s dis­sat­is­fac­tion with the US-led sanc­tions.

UPDATE: A for­mer Ger­man hack­tivist has weighed in [22], cast­ing fur­ther doubt on Russ­ian author­ship of the hack.

“Rus­sia Want­ed to Be Caught, Says Com­pa­ny Wag­ing War on the DNC Hack­ers” by Patrick Tuck­er; [6] Defense One; 7/28/2016. [6]

. . . . But secu­ri­ty expert Jeff Carr thought the smoke off this smok­ing-gun was a bit too thick. In his minor­i­ty report [23], he asks: what kind of spy ring tags their stolen docs before releas­ing them under a cov­er?

“Raise your hand if you think that a GRU or FSB offi­cer would add Iron Felix’s [24] name to the meta­da­ta of a stolen doc­u­ment before he released it to the world while pre­tend­ing to be a Roman­ian hack­er. Some­one clear­ly had a wicked sense of humor,” he wrote.

“If you were to reduce the very high lev­el of cyber­crime, states wouldn’t be able to car­ry out these attacks. They would lose this plau­si­ble deni­a­bil­i­ty and it would become a more straight­for­ward attack. I think they want to make it dif­fi­cult for lead­ers to have the kind of unam­bigu­ous state­ment that dri­ves pol­i­cy in a democ­ra­cy,” Porter said. “They want to make it hard to respond. But they prob­a­bly don’t mind get­ting caught, in the sense that they want to send a mes­sage.” . . . .

Crowd­strike pres­i­dent Shawn Hen­ry is dubi­ous. “I don’t know what kind of for­eign intel­li­gence ser­vice con­duct­ing a covert oper­a­tion wants to be found,” he said on Thurs­day, but added that Crowd­Strike picked up the DNC hack with­in 48 hours and that it “wasn’t dif­fi­cult.” . . . .
