After reading all 13 pages, I find nothing that supports your theory that the Russians hacked the election or released just some of it to help one side.
Do you?

The thing is the only thing the Russians managed to do was release the DNC emails.
What exactly was the revelation there? The DNC didn't like Bernie? John podesta gives favors? The Clinton foundation is a bit sketchy?
On the face of it one would conclude that telling people things they already knew would not have a great effect on their vote. Yet, here we are, hyperventilating about"hacked election"
Yes real damage has been done, but it has almost all been self inflicted.
The vulnerability, the great big security hole in our society that the Russians bumbled into this time around was not email holes, but a media rife with pundits who make money by hyperventilating, embellishing and exaggerating behind a veneer of professionalism, media that lap up the crap they spew to fill up their 24/7 programming slots, and politicians who would rather point to anyone but themselves to explain their failures.
Also, am I the only one who is surprised at the full extent of Obama's impulsiveness? He is as Impulsive when the chips are down as the Donald is on Twitter when it 2 am.

I repeat; 'hacking the election' is not what it's about. Systems were hacked, information was released from the hacks and Moscow was behind it, their aim being influence the election outcome; that is the allegation. I have not seen all the evidence; Crowdstrike's claims seem to me to highly suggestive. The NSA will know far more and they have confidence, all other circumstantial evidence suggests it is likely so I am pretty certain that they did interfere in your election.

So the fact that Obama released this document, which amounts to nothing more than a "what not to do to get hacked" manual, coupled with a list of sanctions of Russia is proof to you?
You linked it as proof and I wondering where the proof is...
Furthermore, you post a video of some Russian politican applauding Trump winning the election as some sort of evidence?
Think that through.
If this was some diabolical plan to get Trump elected, do you think Putin would tolerate some of his puppets actively cheering?
So define "interfere" and how did they do that in the election?

I refer you to Crowdstrike's findings. The FBI/DHS report is about modus operandi more than anything else which fits other hacks elsewhere we know were Moscow based. The whole thing stinks; seriously I am no Obama fan in any way but when Trump calls on Moscow to hack to the Clinton campaign... and it seems highly likely at least that they did, you would dismiss it and "move on"? Do you have some reason to distrust ALL your intelligence agencies? This isn't about Party politics; it's about having a criminal organisation posing as a Government interfere in your election. I understand that such things may be somewhat novel to you Yanks and nobody woke you up but this war has been going on at least - or rather never stopped after the USSR fell apart and you got attacked. My involvement is relatively recent obviously but I know enough of the signs and when it looks like a pig, snorts like a pig and smells like a pig my working hypothesis must be that it is a pig. Where Moscow is concerned 'coincidences' are all too frequent.Last edited by snapper; 31 Dec 16,, 00:48.

Originally posted by snapper View PostI am not aware that "hacking the election" is what is claimed... 'Hacking the election' would imply some attempt to manipulate the vote count itself or something of the voting and counting process (this they actually attempted in the Ukrainian Presidential Election in May 2014) and I do not think anyone is claiming that this was the case. It would be more accurate to say they hacked the DNC (and some Republicans that we know of) and then released selected chosen bits in an attempt to interfere in the election campaign. Not the same as 'hacking the election' technically though the effects may be similar.

(Uhhh....no he didn't really. More Democrat *ahem* hack bullshit)
Seriously, your posts throughout the last few years indicate a deep hatred of Putin and I understand that with what he put your country through.
But I am more interested in facts than anything else.
Did the Russians hack the Democrats? Yeah, probably.
Did they try to hack anything else? Yeah, a shitload of places. If you read the report, you'd know that.
So don't make it sound like they got all these boatloads of information from everywhere and only released certain things to help Trump and hurt Clinton.
I'm seriously wondering if you would be this passionate about this issue if if were the Chinese rather than the Russians that did the hacking.Last edited by YellowFever; 31 Dec 16,, 03:27.

You bash one side over and over and over and put out 1 or 2 of these articles a year to cover their asses in case someone accuses them of partiality.
They have something to point to as their evidence that proves they are impartial.
....but you know that already. :P
