NYT browser)and I receive got quick read it, too.
The U.S. intelligence community is receiving closed to $80 billion a year, a staggering amount, together with this community has basically signed nether this document virtually this widely discussed theory related to the intelligence agencies' work. So you lot would aspect at to the lowest degree something meaningful inwards there.
Your expectation would live completely wrong. There's absolutely naught relevant inwards the 25-page-long document. Rather than the study of a $80 billion manufacture virtually an of import accusation, it reads similar a homework do of an undergraduate left-wing crybaby from a U.S. college that has turned into an indoctrination oculus nurturing students inwards a bubble – well, almost all colleges are similar that these days. And the pupil would all the same deserve a failing grade.
OK, what was the document expected to genuinely justify together with what does it genuinely contain?
The summary it was supposed to justify is the contestation that "the Russians hacked the elections". Now, when he hears this proposition, every somebody with IQ higher upward lxx starts yesteryear asking: What is this contestation supposed to fifty-fifty mean? How do you lot hack the elections?
The solely "legitimate" interpretation of the judgement "Russians hacked the elections" is the interpretation that the Russians receive got penetrated to the computers that quantify the publish of votes inwards favor of Trump together with Hillary, changed these numbers, together with this alter has stolen the victory from the actual winner Hillary Clinton together with gave it to the apparent winner Donald Trump.
"An election" is the procedure that produces the trial together with the solely meaningful agency to hack it is to alter the trial yesteryear modifying the mechanisms that genuinely count the votes. What else could it mean?
Needless to say, no ane genuinely believes that such a thing tin receive got place. The computers that could receive got been used to count the votes are sufficiently protected, there's been lots of different methods to count, manual counting, together with it's exactly non possible together with there's no show that it has taken place. The study explicitly says that they believe that no Russian hackers were targeting vote tallying. So "who hacked whom" then that it tin live summarized yesteryear proverb that "Russians hacked the U.S. elections"?
Some people don't receive got whatsoever reply at all. The most widespread reply yesteryear those who receive got an reply is the interpretation that "Russians are behind the hacking of the Democratic National Committee computers" that receive got revealed closed to controversial information virtually Hillary together with her people through Wikileaks. Now, if someone summarizes the hacking of the (badly protected together with easily assailable, nosotros were told) DNC computers every bit "hacking of the U.S. elections", he's already beingness brutally dishonest because the DNC exactly isn't (hopefully isn't) the establishment responsible for the fairness of the U.S. elections.
Moreover, it's non fifty-fifty the most "essential" scheme connected with the Democratic candidate. And every bit far every bit I tin say, the information from the Wikileaks haven't been the "most essential information" during the campaign, anyway.
OK, then "Russians hacked the U.S. elections" could live an insanely overinflated rephrasing of the accusation that "Russia's authorities is behind the crusade that led to the hacking of the DNC server". Yesterday on TV, Czech president Klaus mocked those who believe that Putin said "Dear Russian hackers, straight off you lot receive got to become to move together with hack the American political computers" every bit juvenile.
(If you lot desire to know, all other of import Czech politicians on yesterday's, Lord's Day TV programs – electrical flow Czech president Zeman, electrical flow unusual government minister Zaorálek, together with old government minister of defense forcefulness Vondra – were mocking the thought that the "Russians hacked the election". Vondra called post-election complaints yesteryear the Democrats "an undignified weeping". Zeman said that whatever helped the information virtually Hillary to leak is less of import than the truthfulness of the leaked information. Zaorálek criticized the U.S. intelligence services together with asked why they were waiting then long with releasing the report.)
Well, I tend to care with Klaus' view fifty-fifty though I am maybe to a greater extent than open-minded. I tin imagine that Putin would attempt to purpose this methodology. He's been an agent together with James Bond together with similar people do sometimes do similar things – fifty-fifty (and maybe especially) the American counterparts of James Bond do. OK, then I eagerly expected closed to show – or at to the lowest degree a glimpse of show – that at to the lowest degree this modest influence yesteryear Putin is what has genuinely happened inwards the 25-page-long report.
I was utterly disappointed. Those 25 pages are 25 pages of full general clichés (also virtually the IPCC-like levels of confidence together with various methods to fuzzily accumulate evidence), little together with innocent publicly known information, ludicrously irrelevant graphs comparison the publish of viewers of RT together with BBC/CNN (RT wins inwards YouTube viewers but loses inwards "likes" LOL) together with murky unsubstantiated Russophobic propagandistic linguistic communication (often comparison the alleged recent Russian interventions to the Soviet ones from the Cold War years – together with I call back that similar direct Soviet influences to the American internal affairs were always likewise weak to deserve whatsoever discussion; the internal American "useful idiots" who were Marxists independently of Russian Federation were ever together with are all the same vastly to a greater extent than unsafe than the Russians).
Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 crazily large fraction of the document is whining virtually a particular intelligence outlet, Russian Federation Today (now officially called exactly RT). I call back that the document doesn't say then explicitly but because of the huge yet completely surprising together with illogical attending given to RT, it looks similar "Russians hacked the U.S. elections" is genuinely meant to say that "RT has hacked the Russian elections yesteryear influencing the American viewers' opinions".
Nice! So how did RT – which I sometimes lookout adult man myself together with I call back that the smartphone intelligence app is ane of the best ones which is why I purpose it on my telephone every bit the principal English-language intelligence app (I believe that the divergence from other intelligence apps inwards English linguistic communication is small) – hack the U.S. elections? The terrible law-breaking of RT is that it has provided closed to of the American viewers with information together with commentary that wasn't identical to those on MSNBC! What a shocking crime. This shouldn't receive got happened, let's nuke Moscow now.
The intelligence community's document contains numerous unrelated partial answers – or examples of this mega-crime. Their rattling existence together with particularly their combination is dizzy together with all of them confirm the moving painting of the undergraduate crybaby who wrote the study together with who suffers whenever she reads something contradicting the agency how she was indoctrinated inwards the college. So she whines e.g. that RT dared to do a positive ikon for Julian Assange. Imagine the scandal – together with how straight it had to hack Hillary's election – when RT says something positive virtually Julian Assange.
And at that spot are dozens of such complaints virtually something that the crybaby saw on TV. Many of them made me smile. But I exploded inwards laughter when I came to the next electrical load inwards the report:
RT has also focused on criticism of the States economical system, States currency policy, alleged Wall Street greed, together with the States national debt. Some of RT's hosts receive got compared the USA to Imperial Rome together with receive got predicted that authorities corruption together with "corporate greed" volition Pb to States fiscal collapse (RT, 31 October, 4 November).ROFTL! So the evil lying Russians dared to harm Hillary yesteryear pointing out (the certainly untrue information) that there's "alleged" greed on Wall Street, that the U.S. has a high national debt, together with they fifty-fifty dared to compare the U.S. to the Roman Empire. It's exactly similar if they were saying:
RT was then bad that it failed to study that the U.S. has no debt (as every decent, legal, MSNBC-watching U.S. citizen knows) together with runs no deficits together with that all the people on Wall Street are little monks who alive inwards a identify of mud from three seeds of rice a day, who don't aid virtually their wealth, together with who are working difficult to spread all their wealth to the whole world. Also, they should receive got pointed out that the U.S. was much meliorate than the Roman Empire together with indestructible, dissimilar the Roman Empire, together with that the non-existent greed couldn't receive got led to whatsoever unsafe fiscal developments.Please, you lot can't live serious. Everyone who doubts that greed is a major forcefulness powering Wall Street is a mental cripple. Everyone who doubts that the U.S. has a worrisome high national debt that whatsoever responsible pol should attempt to tame is crazy. Everyone who finds it implausible that greed of Wall Street has contributed e.g. to the 2007-2009 downturn is extremely unreasonable. Are you lot certain that someone's proverb that Wall Street financiers are greedy is the law-breaking that RT should receive got never done, a law-breaking that Russian Federation (or Putin) deserves to live punished for, together with a law-breaking that helped Donald Trump to live elected?
I exactly can't believe. The stupidity needed for someone to write something similar that is then flabbergasting that I would almost live willing to believe that this whole study was a plot yesteryear the Kremlin designed to humiliate the U.S. intelligence community. It's exactly then utterly pathetic. It's all virtually closed to completely self-evident facts or at to the lowest degree widespread views that someone at RT has voiced – together with millions of Americans together with others are voicing them every twenty-four hr menstruum every bit good – together with they're views that are certainly perfectly legal inwards a gratis province together with whose human relationship to every sane plenty presidential candidate should live neutral because no sane plenty presidential candidate volition openly dispute statements such every bit there's greed on Wall Street. Most of these views receive got been pretty much measured to live "dominant" alongside the U.S. voters, anyway. And every bit Donald Trump has tweeted, whoever doesn't desire meliorate U.S. relationships with Russian Federation is stupid. Only stupid people, fools, 80% of morons, together with 90% imbeciles oppose meliorate Russian Federation ties.
You know, judging yesteryear my interactions with Max Keiser inwards 2004, I don't similar his anti-capitalist views at all together with I never lookout adult man his programs on RT. But if he or someone else exactly says that Wall Street financiers are by together with large greedy, how could someone disagree or demonize this opinion? It's exactly f*cking insane, a full-blown denial of reality.
I've discussed this particular paragraph inwards closed to particular but there's a lot of similarly crazy stuff inwards that report. For example, RT dared to invite guests who warned against the wellness together with environmental risks of fracking. Do you lot genuinely demand a Russian TV station for someone to live able to limited these worries and/or data? I was by together with large persuaded that the environmental/health risks of fracking are negligible together with localized but I am non 100% sure. And fifty-fifty if the worries sometimes presented at RT (I've never seen those) were invalid at the end, how does it impact the U.S. presidential elections? I estimate that afterward all, Donald Trump is gonna live to a greater extent than pro-fracking than Hillary Clinton would be. Anti-fracking programs should receive got helped (pro-Saudi) Hillary, relatively speaking. So what's going on?
The primal large statements – Vladimir Putin has personally organized the gang of hackers together with troll to brand Trump win – is repeated many times inwards the study but there's never ever whatsoever glimpse of show supporting that statement, despite widespread comments that "this study is then important" because it is a "declassified version of something extremely classified". There's non a unmarried damn thing that would live relevant for anything that could surprise a rational somebody or modify his opinions. And exactly to live sure, fifty-fifty if Putin led closed to hackers and/or trolls to do something, it would all the same non live a decisive forcefulness that may decide the trial of the election.
Also, nosotros basically read that Putin must live a criminal because he preferred Trump. Half a twelvemonth earlier the election, the study admits, Putin has made no explicit statements virtually favoring ane candidate over closed to other – belike because he thought that his populace back upward could live a "kiss of death" for Trump instead, the study suggests. But the rattling fact that Putin was affecting closed to people to back upward Trump through closed to less visible channels is described every bit closed to shocking, devilish crime, a murky criminal plot to undermine republic inwards the U.S.
Holy cow.
In recent years, the U.S. authorities was openly supporting fanatical jihadists inwards numerous Middle East countries who were struggling to withdraw either democratically elected or at to the lowest degree stable together with sufficiently pro-West leaders. The same authorities has paid billions for a movement that was shooting at Ukrainian policemen together with ultimately removed a democratically elected president Yanukovitch earlier an oligarch was installed instead. Barack Obama came to the UK one-half a twelvemonth agone to back upward the "Brexit Stay" military camp together with lots of European Union together with other unusual politicians receive got openly endorsed Hillary. I could maintain for quite a while... All these acts must live fine. But when a Russian TV station mentions that people on Wall Street are greedy, it must live an unforgivable law-breaking pain Hillary together with intolerable intervention to the U.S. internal affairs?
This is then incredibly surreal together with ludicrous.
The U.S. intelligence community has been damaged then much together with it seems unavoidable that Barack Obama must live responsible for much of this incredible deterioration of that $80 billion industry. Barack Obama has never been a reasonable or helpful politician, at to the lowest degree non when it came to his actual acts, but it seems that inwards the lastly ii months of his presidency, he has accelerated everything that was then bad virtually his presidency together with he wants to present everyone that he has sucked every bit a pol together with every bit a human being, to live certain that no ane volition missy him when he finally moves to the dumping solid set down of the history inwards less than ii weeks together with when his legacy is by together with large deconstructed yesteryear Spring 2017.
This ludicrous whining undergraduate crybaby's study virtually the "Russian hacking" also shows how incredibly inefficient together with wasteful authorities institutions may be, particularly when they're controlled yesteryear a left-winger, particularly if he is detached from the reality together with prefers to focus on the appearances rather than the beef.
