WikiLeaks says CIA disguised hacking as Russian activity  | Daily Mail Online

Interesting article. Many have said that the leaks before the election were from the inside. Blaming it on those ole nasty Rusky's is a way for the DNC to deflect from what was in those leaks. Now WIKI releases source code showing how the CIA can make computer intrusions (hacks) seem like they come from anywhere.

Computers are a wonderful thing but can really be a cloak to mischievous and nefarious happenings.
 
Re: Latest WikiLeaks release


I guess that settles any questions on the current Russian hacking brouhaha. It's all horse crap being fed to us mushrooms. A much closer investigation here at home of our Intelligence Agencies would be more sensible. When they lie to our Congressional Representatives with impunity, it's a certain sign they have too much power and are not trustworthy.

Re: Latest WikiLeaks release

Through a collective cognitive dissonance, a large number of Americans will simply refuse to believe this. Despite the many decades of stories detailing the deceptions and malfeasance of the CIA, many will deny that the agency is out of control.

Edward Bernays would be proud of this today. When everything the American people believe is false, the misinformation efforts of TPTB will be vindicated.
 
Re: Latest WikiLeaks release


Wikileaks has lost all credibility by now. Frankly speaking, they'd shown their true colors a long time ago. I'd take this with a great deal of skepticism.

WikiLeaks has more credibility in one keystroke than the mainstream media and government spokespersons have in 10 pages of documents.

It is easy to understand however, that a high school student's young age would prevent him from understanding that.

That's what a smart person would do.

And yet, anyone wanting to believe it might respond, "I guess that settles any questions on the current Russian hacking brouhaha."

People believe what they WANT to believe. Mushrooms indeed.

It's laughable that somebody who thinks the Twin Towers were nuked is trying to lecture anybody else on credibility.

People like you are Wikileaks' target audience: anti American, arrogant and gullible as hell.

That I am not as gullible as you is what gets your goat. :lol:

True true. A certain subset of the population is desperate to believe that the Russians weren't involved, despite increasing evidence to the contrary.

And it's really very telling how much time and effort Wikileaks spends trying to "expose" the US government, and conversely how little time and effort they've put into "investigating" countries like Russia and China--- who are rather consistently shifty in their treatment of both their own people and other people.

Oh, no. You are far more gullible than I am. Anybody who actually thinks the Twin Towers were nuked automatically falls well into that category.

No, you have it backwards Ace. The gullible man is the one who believes the statements of known liars without question.

His opposite is the man who is most skeptical of the statements of known liars.

They probably don't teach that in your high school.
 
Re: Latest WikiLeaks release


My suspicion after following wikileaks would be that it is them throwing it at the fan for the naïve and more credulent to snap up and run with.
 
Re: Latest WikiLeaks release


Wikileaks releases information that is given to them and they're a Western oriented organization, with largely native English speakers.
How could Wikileaks release information on Russia and China, when it is not given to them?
 
Re: Latest WikiLeaks release


Yes, known liars like Alex Jones and other conspitards? Those known liars? Exactly right. Glad to see you've finally admitted you are wrong T-72.

Seems to me you've finally awoken from your stupor of gullibility T-72.

And frankly speaking you wouldn't make it in my high school.

You're funny Ace. :lol:

Oh, any number of ways.

Well, no. Wikileaks is not an opinion outlet. They release documents. Are you saying that the documents they release are fake? Can you point me to instances where their released documents were found to be fake?
 
Re: Latest WikiLeaks release


Here's my question to you. How much does Wikileaks get wrong? So far as I can tell far less than our own intelligence agencies. That alone tells me we have a problem, because the reverse should be true or at the very least the truthfulness and accuracy ought to be comparable. Its not. Our own government agency is less than truthful and even less accurate, while Wikileaks is not perfect they are much more often than not truthful and accurate. That tells me I should at least consider what they have to say.
 
Re: Latest WikiLeaks release


Do you have any evidence that these documents are fake? Do you have evidence that any documents released by Wikileaks have been fakes?
 
Re: Latest WikiLeaks release


Well, considering that they are being given the government's own files......that statement seems rather self contradictory. Seeing as Wikileaks is, you know, leaking government files, how can they can get more right than the government?

Wikileaks has an agenda. A pretty blatant one at this point. And just like any other partisan source, you have to take what they say with a large degree of skepticism.
 
Re: Latest WikiLeaks release

Do you have any evidence that these documents are fake? Do you have evidence that any documents released by Wikileaks have been fakes?

Do you have any reason why we should believe this particular group of partisan hacks over any other group of partisan hacks?
 
Re: Latest WikiLeaks release


Their agenda has always been "We open governments."
That should be fairly obvious because it's their moto.
 
Re: Latest WikiLeaks release

Timing sure is interesting. :thinking

 
Re: Latest WikiLeaks release

No, their agenda is "we open one government in particular, and benignly ignore much worse ones because our founder is mad that he has to hide in an embassy to avoid being prosecuted for a completely unrelated to Wikileaks crime it's extremely likely given his actions that he committed".

But that's a bit of a mouthful.
 
Re: Latest WikiLeaks release

What "partisan hacks"? Are the documents legitimate or not? Wikileaks has a good reputation of not releasing fake documents. Are you calling these documents fake?
