Information Clearing House<\/a>” – The \u201cRussia hacking\u201d flap has nothing to do with Russia and nothing to do with hacking. The story is basically a DNC invention that was concocted to mitigate the political fallout from the nearly 50,000 emails that WikiLeaks planned to publish on July 22, 2016, just 3 days before the Democratic National Convention. That\u2019s what this is really all about. Russia didn\u2019t hack anything, it\u2019s a big diversion that was conjured up on-the-fly to keep Hillary\u2019s bandwagon from going down in flames.<\/p>\nPut yourself in Hillary\u2019s shoes for a minute. She knew the deluge was coming and she knew it was going to be bad. (According to Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity, DNC contractor Crowdstrike claimed to find evidence of Russian malware on DNC servers just three days after WikiLeaks announced that it was about \u201cabout to publish \u201cemails related to Hillary Clinton.\u201d Clearly, that was no coincidence. The plan to blame Russia was already underway.) Hillary knew that the emails were going to expose the DNC\u2019s efforts to rig the primaries and torpedo Bernie Sanders campaign, and she knew that the media was going to have a field-day dissecting the private communications word by word on cable news or splashing them across the headlines for weeks on end. It was going to be excruciating. She knew that, they all knew that.<\/p>\n
And how would her supporters react when they discovered that their party leaders and presidential candidate were actively involved in sabotaging the democratic process and subverting the primaries? That wasn\u2019t going to go over well with voters in Poughkeepsie, now was it? Maybe she\u2019d see her public approval ratings slip even more. Maybe she\u2019d nosedive in the polls or lose the election outright, she didn\u2019t know. No one knew. All they knew was that she was in trouble. Big trouble.<\/p>\n
So she reacted exactly the way you\u2019d expect Hillary to react, she hit the panic button. In fact, they all freaked out, everyone of them including Podesta and the rest of the DNC honchoes. Once they figured that their presidential bid could go up in smoke, they decided to act preemptively, pull out all the stops and \u201cGo Big\u201d.<\/p>\n
That\u2019s where Russia comes into the picture. The DNC brass (with help from allies at the CIA) decided to conjure up a story so fantastic that, well, it had to be true, after all, that\u2019s what the 17 intel agencies said, right? And so did the elite media including the New York Times, the Washington Post and CNN. They can\u2019t all be wrong, can they? Sure, they goofed-up on Saddam\u2019s WMDs, and Iran\u2019s imaginary nukes program, and Assad\u2019s fictional chemical weapons attack, but, hey, everyone makes mistakes, right? And, besides, have I told you how evil Putin is lately and how much he reminds me of Adolph Hitler? (sarcasm)<\/p>\n
In any event, they settled on Russia mainly because Russia had rolled back Washington\u2019s imperial project in both Ukraine and Syria, so the media was already in full demonetization-mode and raring to go. All the DNC needed to do was utter the words \u201cRussia meddling\u201d and they\u2019d be off to the races.<\/p>\n
Does any of this sound even remotely believable? Former CIA analyst, Ray McGovern seems to think so, because he expounded a very similar scenario about a month ago in an interview on You Tube. Check it out:<\/p>\n
Ray McGovern\u2013 \u201cWhat did Hillary do? \u2026Hillary gathered her war council together and one fellow says, \u201cI know what we can do. We\u2019ll blame it on the Russians.\u201d<\/p>\n
And someone else says, \u201cBut it wasn\u2019t the Russians it was WikiLeaks.\u201d<\/p>\n
(Guy number 1 says)\u201dWell, that\u2019s a twofer. We hate them both equally , so we\u2019ll say WikiLeaks is working with the Russians.\u201d<\/p>\n
(Ray McGovern) That was two days before the convention.<\/p>\n
And someone else says, \u201cWhat would the rationale be?\u201d<\/p>\n
(Guy number 2 says) \u201cC\u2019mon, the Russians clearly want Trump to win.\u201d<\/p>\n
(Number 1) \u201cBut what about the major media?\u201d<\/p>\n
(Number 2) \u201cWell, the major media really want Hillary to win, so if we get the major media on board, well, we really got it wired.\u201d<\/p>\n
(Ray McGovern again) \u201cAnd if you watch the coverage since the WikiLeaks leak, two days before the convention, the media content was not \u2018how did Hillary steal the election\u2019 but \u2018How did the Russians do it?\u201d\u2019<\/p>\n
(\u201cRay McGovern:\u00a0The Deep State Assault on Elected Government Must Be Stopped<\/a>\u201c)<\/p>\nHe\u2019s right, isn\u2019t he? Hillary and Co. pulled off the whole ruse without a hitch. The media focused on the \u201cRussia meddling\u201d angle, and the calculating Ms. Clinton slipped away with nary a scratch. It\u2019s amazing!<\/p>\n
